Cons: You cannot install the drivers for this without installing all their proprietary garbage software and the software that it installs will force the wireless adapter to randomly connect to various access points in the area.
Other Thoughts: The software is this devices downfall, if you had an option to just install the drivers it would be a much better purchase.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Cheep
Cons: There are three distinct issues: 1) It conflicts with my motherboards soundcard software; this conflict prevents it from establishing an encrypted connection (it gets stuck in a loop) unless the soundcard software is killed. 2) It steals focus from other applications. 3) It uses more than 1000 GDI & USER objects (thats each, not combined). I think it leaks.
Other Thoughts: The software uses uncommon terminology and lacks built in help. If you want help you must refer to the PDF manual.
I've been trying to work around this products flaws but I cannot tolerate it stealing focus. At first I though it was some other piece of software but it steadily got worse and worse.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: There aren't any.
Cons: Spent 5 hours trying to get it to work. Doesn't connect at all in WPA2 mode, and only connects for a few mins with WPA mode before it hard freezes the entire computer. Only way I could get a stable connection was to disable all security on the router and make it an open connection, which is pointless.
