1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't work in newer HP laptops, September 11, 2003

By	mojah (Ma United States) - See all my reviews

Works fine in my old laptop running WinMe but doesn't in my new ZE4420US by HP. See this link:

The e-mail support wasn't very helpful. The card would indicate it was communicating with my router but tcp\ip communications would freeze after getting a tcp address via dhcp. Struggled with it for a week then brought the laptop back and they put a Linksys 802.11b card in and that worked like a charm.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wireless at affordable price, June 24, 2003

By	Ramchandra Pendyala (Charlotte, NC USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just received this card yesterday. I also bought smc7004vwbr wireless router. I hooked the router to my cable modem and installed the router application on my desktop pc(WinXP Home edition). I connected the desktop to the router with with regulat cat5 cable. Then I pluugged in the SMC2635W card into my laptop (Windows2000 professional) and installed the driver. Magic. I am online from ny desktop and laptop at the same time. The DHCP part of the router worked fine. And I was able to connect to my office via VPN. No problems at all. I read some bad reviews about 7004vwbr. I guess the problems are now fixed. I am getting good signal from it.

3.0 out of 5 stars works, but bad client software, September 2, 2003

By	Peter Kim (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The client software/driver for this wireless card is the worst I've ever seen. The configuration utility is not very user-friendly and not very robust. I had to remove and reinsert the card a few times to get it to work properly.

I recommend either the Netgear or Orinoco wireless cards instead.
