4 out of 5 eggsDecent

Pros: It's easy to use. It's relatively fast. It's small and sleek. The drivers are contained on the device itself. It comes with a stand/extension cord for better placement.

Cons: It doesn't always pick up wifi at a distance that my other devices can.

Other Thoughts: It was only $10, so it is about as good as you can get for this price.

3 out of 5 eggsCould be good

Pros: It works for basic internet.

Cons: My adapter doesnt stay connected and only shows 2 bars of signal with the router being in the living room and this in my bedroom. my apt is almost studio sized. It always throws an error at some point throught browsing. always have to repair/troubleshoot or unplug and replug just to get back to browsing. when it is working it does move the speed it supposed to. Cisco is going to RMA but im not wasting my time. I feel Valet was a wasted effort on their part.

4 out of 5 eggsOK Adapter

Pros: Self installs without CD or wired connection.
Slick package and stylish look, but cable placement on the base meand the back side of the adapter with all the printing ends up turned towards the room if you place the base in a window sill or on a shelf with no access from rear.

Cons: Signal not that good. I hooked to a desktop I retired to my office, wireless router is in living room approximately 30 feet and 2 walls away. My 3 year old HP laptop and wireless printer in the office have full strength signals, the desktop, with this adpater and the extension cable used to place it on a higher shelf, closer to the signal point and only getting 2 or 3 bars out of 5 on the wireless networking monitor tool.
