I have both a DWL-120+ and the DWL-AB650. I am using the wireless adapters with a DI614+ router and neighbors routers.
My DWL-120+ detects and uses several available wireless routers besides my own router. The signal detected from my router is consistently weighted at greater than 90% signal strength. The other routers signals are greater than 65% signal strength.
My DWL-AB650 consistently detects my routers signal in the range of 50-70% signal strength.
The other routers are not detected at all.
Dlink tech support has no reasonable fix. I'm a Motorola Radio engineer. Maybe I have high expectations a response to an obviously flawed product by DLink Tech Support. | 2 | Today | From now on, I will buy D-Link products!
This card has the following metits: 1) works greatly, even in the condition of weakest signal; 2) easy to install in WinXP Home edition; 3) dual modes ready for potential upgrades; 4) absolutely cheaper than any other dual band cards I have ever known (pls buy it from Amazon.com, I received my card in the third day after I ordered for free shipping). Thank you--Amazon.com! | 5 | Today | Another great D-Link product
I purchased this card very recently, and it works great. It is very easy to install (in my case on a Micron Millenia laptop running Windows ME). The installation guide (geared for XP) is very concise and easy to follow. This card is "hot-pluggable", meaning you can easily get onto your network with your OS running. You need a 32 bit cardbus slot which is available on most newer laptops. The only negative would be the "pop-up" design of the antenna, which could cover your second PC card slot and make it non usable). I have 802.11b and use DI-713P, and I get a great and sustained connection signal. I cannot comment on the "a" protocol, but I am sure it will work as advertised. Also it allows you to tap into public "hotspots" when out of town (eg. airports, hotels). I bought it mainly because of its dual mode, which is a very handy feature and keeps your options and potential upgrades open in the future. It certainly makes more sense economically than purchasing 2 separate cards, and Amazon had the lowest price (even cheaper than the 22Mbs 650+ or wireless G), specially with the current rebate. Even though most wireless connections are currently 802.11b, the emerging "G" and faster "A" modes will sure make this dual AB card a first choice. Needless to say I am a D-Link fan for networking (this is my 6th, but not last, D-link product), and would definitely recommend the DWL-AB650. Thank you Amazon. | 5 | Today |
