This review is from: Microsoft M53-00001 Broadband Network Ethernet USB Adapter (10/100) (Personal Computers)

After having this adapter for about a month it all of a sudden stopped working. The only way i could get it to work was by twisting and holding the cable going into the network adapter. Turns out the little cables inside had pulled out of their plugs making the device useless. I would def recommend another USB adapter that has a seperate standard USB cable attached between the adapter and the computer. Don't waste your money. It also tries to install software that is not really necessary for the adapter to work. All the software tells you (even though its a pretty big program) is if you have an internet connection or not.
