This review is from: 3Com 11Mbps Wireless LAN PC Card with XJACK Antenna (Personal Computers)

I bought this item in full knowledge of quite a few bad reviews I have read. Some are accurate some not so. I have found the pop-out antenna to be not flimsy at all - its spring is very stiff holding it well in place. Some reviews say it has problem sticking to its retracted position, some say it sticks to easially. I havent found that, but the card is still new.

Performance wise it is average at best. It seams to take alot longer then my orionoco card at aquiring network and it does also loose signal sometimes. Using the latest drivers improved the performance greatly and is compatible with winXP (service pack 2) inbuilt wireless control, so there is no need to install the 3com software that comes with it (which is very nice).

Having said all that, the retractible antenna really is worth it all, and even with the antenna out it is still only sticks out a small amount and is unobstructive.

I would recommend this card to anyone who likes being mobile but doesnt require hard-core preformance.

How nice is it to be able to just push your antannae in and go?!!! This card is very sleek, completely aesthetically pleasing...not to mention cool! Very innovative design. It works great too. I've had no problems connecting to networks on both my pc and mac laptops with it. I've never noticed any difference in speeds...I've never met a public wi-fi access point that transmits at over 2Mbps..and this card is 11Mbps....so it's never taken full advantage of. All in all - this is an amazing card!
