    This card loses network connections CONSTANTLY. I have it paired with a totally compatible D-Link router, all updated drivers, etc. No network interference. It drops the wireless connection every few minutes, all the time. I had to switch back to the built-in one in my laptop. THAT works flawlessly albeit slower.

    I purchased this notebook adapter in concert with a D-Link wireless N router to replace a D-Link Airplus Xxtreme G adapter and Linksys wireless G router, hoping for increased range. It was easy to install, but the wireless N upgrade failed to make any noticeable increase in range.

    I even bought the DWA-652 for my PC and I have had more issues with this slowing down or freezing my PC. These issues may be do to my XP service pack 3 configuration, but really that is not acceptable. It should not matter if I have service pack 2 or 3. It should just work, and Yes I do have the right to have the most current service pack on my PC, Security is very important I install programs and software on many computer networks so I need the maximum security for my computer. This product is not ready for primetime.

    If you have a home network and are moving large files around then you need to go to Extreme N specs. This card plugged in, ran the setup disk, checked for new firmware and drivers and then it has functioned flawlessly for over a year. Easily falls back at hotels etc to wireless G but still provides better signal detection.

    If you are home gaming or networking with an extreme N router then this card is easy and fast.

    I purchased two DLINK DWA 652 network adaptors and two DLINK DAP 1522 wireless access points (to go along with my new DLINK DIR 825 router). The wirless N does operate as reliably or consistently and sometimes not at all. I could not receive N band transmissions and DLINK was not able to fix the problem. In addition, the software causes system hangups.

    What made this experience worse is the long hold times to get a DLINK tech. And, they tell you to try something and then call them back (more long holds)

    I've given up on these and on DLINK. They are going back to Amazon.
