I bought this WPC54GSUK to work in an old IBM T21 ThinkPad running Windows XP SP2. My Linksys WAG54GS UK wireless router is connected to my desktop and works fine. I had installed the Linksys software on the laptop, there was an excellent signal but, although it could ping web sites, the laptop would not download Web Pages in either IE6 or Firefox or AVG virus definitions. After fiddling about with the settings, occasionally it would work, but not consistently. I had almost given up, and Linksys Tech. support couldn't solve the problem. (I hope they read these reviews)
So I thought I'd try a Netgear Card instead. After removing the Linksys software I noticed it said the laptop was still connected using Windows/Start/Connect To. So I tried again to download web pages and "Hey Presto", it worked all the time, even pulling the card out and plugging it in again. I have turned the laptop off and on, many times, and the WPC54GSUK works perfectly every time.
If you are having similar problems, only use the WPC54GSUK drivers from the CD, don't use the Linksys interface software, use XP's Wireless Connections to access the web. Also, disabling the Intel Network Connection in Device Manager on the IBM ThinkPad might have been a contributory helpful factor, as I read that somewhere too.
Anyone want to buy an unused Netgear Card?

I've had this card for about 1` year now, and it is starting to fail. It cannot pick up the network anymore...

Got this as a Christmas present for my new broadband connection with a popular Satellite TV/Media company. Went for PCMIA card as only have 2 spare USB slots on my laptop. Installed from the CD without any hassle and works really well. I'm not really bothered about how fast its running as its a LOT faster than my old dialup. The wireless connection has a decent range on it too, although its the wrong time of the year to test if it will work from the bottom of the garden.
