Beats out the competition for XP compliant Wireless PCI cards December 23, 2007 Skeeter (Portland, Oregon) 51 out of 52 found this review helpful
I had nothing but trouble with the Netgear wireless PCI card (NETGEAR WG311 Wireless-G PCI Adapter) that came with my XP PC. It kept locking up my PC at the worst possible times, and nothing I tried, even with the help of Netgear's tech support, was able to eliminate the problem. An attempted Trendnet replacement (Trendnet TEW423PI 54Mbps 802.11g Wireless PCI) was worse; I couldn't even get any driver to load. In contrast, this MSI Turbo mode wireless PCI card has worked like a charm and with its little separate antenna gets a much better signal from my wireless router. This is an inexpensive wireless PCI card that is compatible with my XP PC system and that instantly resolved my PC's locking-up problem.
It works! December 22, 2007 Q. Li (New York) 23 out of 23 found this review helpful
I bought this because my crappy D-link wireless pci adapter was dying only after about 6 months into use. It was dropping connections every 10 minutes or so. Now after I plug this in, I get at least 4 bars compared to average 2-3 bars i used to get with d-link. I saw some users complain about the short antenna. Yes it is pretty short but long enough to get on top of the computer and that alone can make whole lot of difference. Otherwise spend little more money and get more expensive ones. For this price, this one is a steal. Also to anyone who bought/will buy this item. Do yourself a favor, dont use the crappy driver that comes with it. Go to ralink website and download their reference driver.
Flawless install on Vista and runs beautifully April 26, 2008 Mary Jo Sminkey (Raleigh, NC USA) 25 out of 26 found this review helpful
I recently upgraded my old Dell computer to Vista and needed to add a wireless card to it as it was going to be moved away from the main router. This card seemed to have good reviews although I wasn't sure if it worked with Vista. But installation was fast and easy, the card was recognized and I was connected to my wifi router in no time at all. I liked that this had a little antennae that you could move up to the top of your desk to get a better signal, but the cord on it is pretty short and really only long enough for it to sit on top of the tower case. Which seems to work fine for me, I have a good strong steady signal and have had no problems at all with this card dropping connections, etc. Now if I could just get Vista to behave when it comes to networking, I'd be all set!
It's Fast, really fast!!! Do not believe 1-3 star reviewers on this product heres why... January 10, 2009 C. Carlson (Woodbury MN) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
After reading so many positive reviews about this product I decided to give it a try. I have gone through two USB adapters from Netgear, (old wpn111 & wg111t). Both have had heat related problems which caused the connection to drop constantly.
1. Install
The install was a breeze.
2. Compatibility
Works with Windows XP 64 Bit, and Windows 7 64 bit beta. Should work with windows Vista but I have not tested it as Vista sucks in my opinion
anyways.
3. Speed
Let me tell you, this thing is FAST I mean REALLY REALLY FAST!!! When I downloaded the Windows 7 64bit version I had consistent download speeds of 1.3 mbps. Try achieving that with a USB wireless adapter, I haven't. I was able to achieve maximum connection with this adapter on Comcast internet. The router is in the basement and I am upstairs on the 3rd level and I have max signal strength.
Some people give the product 1-3 stars because they don't know what they were doing or were ranting on about "service experience" not the product.
That is why you should not believe the 1-3 star reviews.
Bottom line, this card is CHEAP, best bang for the buck PCI card, and out performs all other wifi PCI cards and USB adapters on the market.
Good Wireless Card for Vista 64-Bit November 26, 2008 Travis 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Installing this wireless card was a breeze. It gets good range and most importantly it is compatible with Vista 64-Bit.
The included CD doesn't have the Vista 64-Bit drivers, so you have to get them off of MSI's website. However, they are easy to find and quick to install.
Overall, I would recommend this card for anyone having trouble finding a card that is compatible with 64-Bit XP or Vista. So far the card has been well worth the cheap price of $24.99.
