5.0 out of 5 stars User friendly, problem free and high-speed, January 3, 2005
This review is from: 3COM Corp U.S. ROBOTICS 802.11G WRLS GAMING ADAPTER ( USR5430 ) (Personal Computers)
This was my choice on wireless networking for my Xbox. It is really easy to install. It is high quality and looks good with its blue leds. It takes less than 5 mins to tune its security settings and start to use. It has no range or speed problems. It seems a little bit expensive but it is worth.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: 3COM Corp U.S. ROBOTICS 802.11G WRLS GAMING ADAPTER ( USR5430 ) (Personal Computers)
Ok first of all dont buy any other adapter if u dont wont dropped games or big bills. this thing is amazing with range. i used it to connect to xbox live but it wasnt easy. first of all no matter what the boxes say on any adapter its never plug and play. so it takes like 5 min to configure it on your computer. after that u go to the xbox dashboard and go to wireless and it wont work since this thing isnt xbox compatible. so instead configure it and click on connect instead and you are connected.

This review is from: 3COM Corp U.S. ROBOTICS 802.11G WRLS GAMING ADAPTER ( USR5430 ) (Personal Computers)
I really like this product. It just works.

Once updating the flash, it now does WAP in addition to WEP encryption. As with all game adapters like this it is not the easiest thing to set up for secured communications, but it was easy enough.

I replaced the antenna with a highly directional high gain antenna and use it for a half mile wifi link. It works great in this application!

No, I have NEVER use it with a game console, but as a great stable link hardware, I would purchase another ... If I could find them and had the need.
