D-Link DWL G-122 Wireless USB Adapter

| | Comments (2)

I just bought the D-Link DWL G-122. It is not true plug and play for Windows. Windows Xp asked me for the driver when I plugged it in. But as soon as I inserted the CD, it installed nicely and started working. Great speed (802.11g - 54 mbps) and it instantly caught my wireless network. So far so good.

I would definitely recommend it for desktops (I am using it for my desktop which is not in the same room as the router and I did not want to run a long ethernet cable) and for laptops (if your existing wireless card does not catch signals properly).

I got it for $10.94 from Buy.com with free shipping (after $10 mail in rebate and $10 instant rebate for using Google checkout). The list price is $59.99.

- Amazon ($19.99 after rebate)

What? Do you mean your Notebook came without a Wi-Fi? I thought you bought your Dell coupla months backs?

Brajeshwar,

The wireless adapater is for my desktop which is in a different room from the router. My laptop does have an internal wireless card and it is working great :)

Your Mac Powerbook looks awesome :). I am sure you love it. I might switch to an Mac later after a couple of years. For now, windows works great for me :)
