Quite happy with this wireless network adapter. Works great and is fast. The only drawback is that my wireless keyboard interferes with signal reception if plugged in the back of my desktop but seem s to work fine if i plug the dongle for the keyboard in the front USB port .

The disk came with the wrong drivers. So i called them and they emailed me the right ones. After I installed the right drivers, it worked for about a minute and then stopped working. The Tp-link people knew nothing and were reading out of a book. If you had 32bit windows it would probably work. On the box it says for 64bit and 32bit.

I recently built a new computer from scratch and purchased this card in order to connect to my homes wireless network. The card installed into a PCI slot easy enough but the problem arose when I installed the Drivers from the tiny CD that was provided. I am running Windows 7 and after installing the driver, it would not recognize the adapter. I double checked to make sure it was installed correctly and it was and re-installed the drivers with no luck. After a few minutes, my computer Red Screened (not Blue or Black, RED) which I never heard of before. I restarted my computer and would try to unstall the driver but my computer would consistently freeze and Red screen before I could do so. I was forced to reformat and reinstall Windows 7 (my computer was fine after doing so). I contacted TP-Link phone support and they couldnt help me since they ran me through a series of questions that were obviously from a handbook. It could be that the driver on the CD is old but how am I suppose to download the new driver if I cant log onto the internet?! Needless to say I decided to switched to LAN

I've purchased 2 of these now, I live in a large apartment and it reaches from corner to corner with 97% signal strength, going through 5 walls which is better than any other card I've used.

Purchased this for a client who upgraded from Dial-up to Cable and needed to connect a the supplied router. There was a problem, in that if the PC is not warm-booted (i.e. powered-on until POST completes, then rebooted), the card would not be detected. I am happy to report TP-Link's support team was extremely helpful. We did not get the issue resolved, but I have the feeling that the client's motherboard (which was purchased used, w/CPU, for under $80 at a local shop) was the root cause. At any rate I came away with the knowledge that you can use the generic Atheros drivers for the AR-922X chip for this card, which is great for troubleshooting.
