Pros: Worked right out of the box with no problems. So far I have tested it in: - UBUNTU (no drivers needed)
- Windows 7 Pro x64 and Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (no drivers needed)
- Windows Vista and Windows XP 32, get drivers at the Realtek website > Downloads > Communications Network ICs > Wireless Lan ICs > WLAN NIC > IEEE 802.11a/b/g > MAC/BBP > Software > RTL8187B
Cons: Signal is OK: Weaker signal than my laptop's built in Wireless card and also weaker compared to certain other PCI and USB Wireless cards I tested. With my built in card I get 5 bars and connect at 54 Mbps, with this wireless adapter I get 4 bars and connect at 36-48 Mbps. The router is about 20 feet away, behind a few walls (drywall).
Size: The adapter is rather bulky although not much bigger than other USB adapters.
Other Thoughts: USB Cable extension is included, this is useful just in case you do not want to block out several USB ports when you plug in the adapter.
Don't use the driver CD, it's best to visit the Realtek website as mentioned above for the latest drivers.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: CHEAP It does the job - better than some of the more expensive products. It seems to good to be true. I guess sometimes you get more than you pay for.
Cons: The included cable is really really short maybee 5 inches. I guess its better than no cable but they are attempting to keep the cost down.
Other Thoughts: None
