Works great on my 4-yr-old Sony Vaio running XP Pro with Service Pack 3. No problems at all maintaining connectivity, and the signal strength is great even though the wireless router is upstairs. Our ceilings are very well insulated for sound, but this doesn't affect the signal strength at all. I also like the fact that if I decide to retire my old Sony computer, I can use this adapter with a new computer.

I bought this for an old Desktop PC that has been used as a standalone for almost three years. As indicated in the description/price this is a refurbished adapter. The hardware itself looks brand new, with original packaging in pristine condition. I gave the product 4 stars because I had software issues. The adapter monitor software kept giving error messages and shutting down, never staying up long enough to find the wireless network. I finally uninstalled the software, copied the drivers to my hard drive and manually directed the new hardware wizard to the drivers (otherwise the wizard will reinstall the entire monitor software). I had to reboot to reset the Wireless Zero Configuration (wzc) on my PC, and Voila! the adapter found the wireless network right away. The wireless router is upstairs on the extreme west side of the house. The PC sits in the basement on the east wall. There is an enclosed stair case (two solid walls) and a loaded entertainment center full of electronics in directl line of sight. The connection is a steady "Very Good" all the time. I'm pleasd with this product and the money I saved buying a refurbished adapter.

I bought this a week ago. Great value for your money. Works on XP and Vista. DOES NOT WORK ON Windows 7. Unfortunately, my main desktop I need this for runs Windows 7. I really hope Linksys releases drivers for it.
