I bought this card to replace my old wireless adapter card because I needed something that would work under WPA2 security. The card does work OK except for one quirk. On boot up and every time the card is activated a dialog box comes up which says that Wireless Manager has discovered an error and has to close. It gives the option of sending a message to Microsoft or not. I'm calling this a quirk because the wireless signal does not get dropped. It's just a bit of a nuisance clicking off that dialog box every time the adapter card is activated. I am guessing that it has something to do with my computer because other reviews don't mention this problem.

Works very well. The D-Link Wi-Fi N Cardbus gives new life to a legacy notebook when USB 1.0 is too slow.

Great product. Used with Wireless Rangebooster 650 router Draft 802.11N and 1.5gb DSL, download speeds are within 10% of Ethernet cable to same router to both levels of the house and basement. With this setup there is no real need to hardwire Ethernet within a home.

I was filled with dismay to find that there were no drivers for the Vista operating system included with the installation CD. A trip to the D-link web site brought up Beta drivers. Bravely I installed them and hey, they worked!

This product did not work for me. I live in a large appartment building with lots of wireless access points. The wireless-N router kept going up and down. I tried several channels and could not get it stable. I am sure this a great product, but the combination with the router seems to be subseptible to interference.
