Pros: Very fast, reliable, easy install.

Cons: None as of yet.

Pros: Not much.

Cons: It worked very well for about a month, then started with all kinds of lag, drops, what have you. We tried different configurations, moving the tower, rolling back drivers, etc. Nothing worked. Keep in mind this was about 15 feet away from the router. I bought a usb wireless adapter and haven't looked back.

Pros: I get a consistent signal with it
Works with my Windows 8 computer
Tiny little card

Cons: Only complaint is it doesn't fit snugly into the PCI-E slot for some reason.

Pros: i picked this up for 15 dollars on a sale. could not be more happy for my money. this thing does what it needs to and has very nice range.

Cons: not quite as fast as i need it to be for gaming but for the cost it is above expectations.

Other Thoughts: if you need a wireless and have a pci slot open then i recommend this card, it does an amazing job for the price

Pros: Plug in and see instant results on wifi connect rates

Cons: Slows boot time from 20 second start up (SSD w/ HDD storage) to 25 second boot time.

Other Thoughts: With windows 8 build the driver disk was useless and not necessary for getting setup.

Pros: The card is nice and small.

PCI Express 1X is compatible with any size PCI Express slot.

The dual antennas provide great signal strength.

Its been very reliable for me, I've been using mine for over a year without an issue.

The transfer speed is pretty fast I've seen up to 14MB/sec continuous transfer from my NAS over this card.

Cons: My copy of windows 7 pro does not include drivers for this card by default. Minor issue simply installing from the disk gets it up and running easily enough.

Other Thoughts: The quality of the card has been great for me over the time ive owned it. Its also showing no signs that it will need to be replaced anytime soon.

I access the wireless in my house from upstairs across the house about 50 feet line of sight through a couple of walls. I get excellent signal strength even when the network is under heavy load.

Pros: Ok What Yo Yo said this works with win 8. It states 2 places it is compatible with win 8(details tab). Nowhere on the box or on the Install CD (manual) does it say it's win 8 compatable. Works fine in my old Vista box but win 8 will hang every time. The software loads ok but no boot. I also bought so I could dual boot with Linnux but now I don't believe that one either.

Cons: I have been mislead by Tiger. Stuck with it and I cannot use it.

Other Thoughts: @^#%#%@^!*

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

Please check the following

1. Make sure you have the latest windows update installed (This is a must)
2. Connect to a PCIe x1 slot on your motherboard
3. If correct then windows will find a suitable driver for it to install if not then dowload the latest drivers from our website
a. http://www.rosewill.com/products/1870/ProductDetail_Download.htm
4. Do a manual install through device manager to load only the driver files directly
5. Once that is complete test the device to make sure it is working.
6. If not working use another window 8 machine to test

Pros: Most of the time, it is reliable and fast, especially when the router is very close.

Cons: Occasionally, it would disconnect momentarily from my network. Normally it wouldn't be a problem, but it seemed to always do it in the middle of long backups or other file copying operations, making me restart. Additionally, when I moved my router further away, it started having much more trouble. It would disconnect, then show that my router was an available connection. I would click connect, and after about 10 seconds of trying, it would say that the connection failed and ask me if I wanted to run the network diagnostics. Then, it would show that no connections are available. This cycle would continue for a few minutes and then it would start working again. This used to happen once every couple of months, but since I have moved my router, it happens multiple times per week, even sometimes multiple times in an hour.

Pros: This one worked with my asrock z77 extreme4 MB with no problems.

Cons: Antennas are quite large but it does not bother me.

Pros: Small
Boots up very fast
Minimal installation or drivers
Powerful

Cons: Big, wobbly antennas

Other Thoughts: While the exterior antennas may be large and cumbersome, it takes up barely any space inside of the computer and is super easy to install. It is also extremely fast. I have had no problems connecting to my network and would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking for a fast, small, and cheap wifi adapter.
