Works well, good speed, connected to a trendnet "N" router. The only thing that you should know is that it does not appear to be configurable using a "hidden" SSID. I had to broadcast the SSID, configure the card, ensure that the feature was active that tells the card to connect to the network even if it's not broadcasting, and then hid the SSID on my router. It's a big of a quirk, but easily worked around. The price can't be beat!

This arrived at noon, and by 1215 installed software and hardware, on the network and internet. It couldn't have been any easier than this. Make sure user installs software first before installing card. Following directions, it went in fast and easy. This was the easiest install of a wireless network card in a long time - and I've had some real challenges with Belkin, Linksys and so forth.
This is also dual band 802.11G/N, solid connections to an Actontec PK5000 (2.4Ghz) and dual band Apple (5.0Ghz)Airport. Seamless connection on each network. I have two internet connections running on my desktop - a wired and wireless connection via DHCP. It's simple to switch without having to disconnect before connecting. This is an excellent card. I live in two story house, 2.4G is on the first floor (100% connection) without losing connectivity. Compared to overpriced cards of Linksys, or Belkin, price is right.

The card is easy to install and it was instantly recognized by Windows 7 which downloaded the drivers for the item. I did not even have to use the installation disk.
I take the claimed wireless speeds with a grain of salt because there are so many factors that will effect the speeds of uploads and downloads. I get a strong signal in the room next to the router with the card and have not had a dropped signal. I can surf the web and download files fairly quickly so I am happy which is what most people do with their PC anyway.
If you need to connect your PC wirelessly, I definitely would recommend it, especially if you have Windows 7 since it worked right out of the box for me.
