 keeps loosing the networkApr 18, 2007
By anyone
i bought this to use in my newly upgraded desktop with windows vista. it CONTINUALLY drops the wireless signal (at least every hour) - when you click to connect to a network it does not find any networks. pulling it out and pushing it back in seems to recover the network almost every time, but this is really annoying to have to do repeatedly. it is not a signal strength issue in general, as another desktop in the same room and two laptops that frequent the room have no trouble getting good signals.

 Piece of worthless plasticJun 21, 2008
By Jason I
I bought this for my job tried to get it to work but it would not register on either of my computers. Called the tech people and they also confirmed that there was a problem. Let me know that I would have to return the item. Then they had the nerve to expect me to pay to return it to them. Horrible product and service. Go with a real company that makes quality products.

Smoked up as soon as it connects to USBJul 31, 2008
By Kin Tam
I have 2 of these on 2 different computers, both smoked as soon as it connected. I installed the driver first, reboot the PC, connecting the USB port, then it starts giving out burning smell. I immediately disconnect it from the USB port and put in a flash drive to verify my PC is ok. And it behaves the same on the 2nd unit on my new computer, behaved excatly the same. As soon as the PC re-boot and get to log on, it smoked. Under both cases, the USB ports on both PC are okay. Call for help to Trendnet, no comment on the issue and asked me to pay for shipping to send them back!?!?!?? I would not buy this brand for a long time. RMA# 105049 - Product Ref case # 110095 & 110097.

For you sanity DO NOT BUY THISDec 20, 2008
By D. Almeida
I bought this one without reading other reviews and almost lost my sanity. It would drop connection often, pulling it out and replugging it in would help sometimes, but eventually my computer refused to acknowledge it's presence. Rebooting helped, same symptoms were duplicated on my laptop as well as desktop and finally, one fine day it died (the led would not light up). This was after only 1/2 a dozen uses. Now I am back to my wired connection, I am still in shock and it would take some time to recover before I try other USB wireless adapterS!!! So buy it at your own risk AND SANITY

Please don't buy this adapter.Dec 14, 2008
By D. Wisnewski
For the sake of your sanity and the peacefulness of you neighborhood, please don't bother buying this adapter. It may lead to uncontrollable bouts of screaming. I have another computer which picks up our wireless signal fine, but with this adapter the signal is frequently dropped. Unplugging and plugging it back in usually gets it online again for at least a few minutes, but it's a big pain in the neck. Having to do this repeatedly meant keeping it plugged into the front of the computer within reach, which meant that it got knocked into frequently because it sticks out a good 3" from the computer. Now it has come apart and has to be replaced. Piece of cr@p.
