3 out of 5 stars I need help   February 8, 2008

For people wanting to get a wireless connection without security so you can connect your wii or ds to it, this works great. But this is not what I bought this product for. I thought it worked like the Nintendo Wifi Usb Adapter that busted on me. I cant find anything in the manual about wired connection. The nintendo usb adapter takes the wired connection on your computer and turns into wireless signal for your ds and wii. This is not doing what i want it to do. Anyone please help if i'm wrong and i can convert my wired connection into a wireless connection, not just rerouting a wireless connection into another wireless connection.


5 out of 5 stars A Little Hard To Get Started, But...   January 28, 2008

I bought this guy a little over a month ago. It was a little hard to get installed (no.1 the software included with it is out of date :| and no.2 the manual makes it look easy to get going...it wasn't)

BUT! now that I've got it humming, it works like magic. I can take my DSL online w/o an issue. Perfect. Some teething issues, but worth it.

I ordered this product to play Monster Hunter Freedom and other PSP games online that were unable to do more then ad-hoc in the past. Using the XLink Kai program this will let you play any game that does not have infrastructure with anyone else who uses XLink Kai in the world. As long as the game has some form of Ad-Hoc play, you'll love this product.

Definitely works great, with far less trouble/hassle then the WiFiMax counterpart.

Happy Gaming



3 out of 5 stars Great Price, Poor Instructions!   January 25, 2008

I am not a network expert, but I know more than the average person as far as computer devices. It still took me about 2-3 hours and multiple installs to get this to work. I don't give up easily, or else I would've thrown it away after the first hour of frustration. The included instructions helps you get started, but not detail enough to help choose the correct settings. It was more or less trial and error. Before it finally worked, it would sometimes lock up my Windows XP. Then it was a matter of Rebooting, uninstalling the driver/software, rebooting, reinstall driver/software, try another combination of settings.

I chose this because I needed a low cost Access Point to connect Nintendo DS units to the web without lowering my Linksys Wireless Router security settings. The DS only connects with low (or no) wireless security. Given the time it took for me to get this to work, you should consider the more expensive Nintendo brand wireless USB device. But if you want a challenge, or naturally have good luck, go for it!
