Compatible with 802.11n Draft 2.0 for Incredible PerformanceUsing the latest 802.11n Draft 2.0 technology, the N+ USB adapter will give you outstanding range thanks to the protocol's smart MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) technology.

Customer Reviews

F5D8055 Very easy to install. Gets 270 Mbps through three walls (and around corner) at 60 feet. WORD of CAUTION: if you have Windows 7 do not use the disc to load driver. Download from Belkin Support to match V1 or V2. (it's on the adapter) I download it and was back online in less than 1 min.

I purchased two of these wireless network adapters for two different Dell Precision 390 systems. They both are running MS-Windows XP Pro x64 (64-bit). According to the sales literature, technical support documentation, and technical support personnel, Belkin supports MS-Windows XP Pro x64 for this adapter. Unfortunately, the support did not come on the CD (nor did support for over half of the versions of Windows Belkin says it supports). Logging into Belkin technical support site, I found the drivers and software for the adapter, downloaded it, and successfully installed it (according to the application and its logs).
Unfortunately (second one, are unfortunately like strikes?), after rebooting the network adapter still didn't have drivers. The Windows Hardware Wizard popped up and wanted to find the drivers, which on the recommended automatic it couldn't find them.
I contacted Belkin chat support (POSITIVE thing they are 24x7 for networking). Unfortunately (ah, third one, does this mean Belkin is out?), all they could do is parrot what the documentation says. Download and install this program and everything will work. Ah, it didn't work? Surprise, you're disconnected. Connect back up via Chat and disconnect again. Third chat, third reference number, and disconnect.
Fourth person says he'll need to send this to the next level. (What does Belkin require to realize a problem really exists?) I'm told to expect a call in 24 hours. 27 hours later, still no call. I contact Belkin again and they say keep waiting.
46 hours pass from the fourth person and I get a phone call. I take the person through everything. I tried this on two different MS-Windows XP Pro x64 systems. I successfully installed the adapters (both of them) on a friend's Windows XP Pro x32 laptop, but that doesn't help me. I also tell him that after looking through the download program, I can say for sure, 100%, the MS-Windows XP Pro x64 drivers are MISSING They are not there, never have been there, and I want my drivers.
He says he will have to get back to me.
This is where I am at this time. All Belkin will say is it works, they keep asking me to install the drivers, their methods keep failing because the files do not exist, and they keep telling me to install the drivers. HOW? They won't tell me how to install the drivers without the necessary files!
UPDATE: It is the 1st of March 2011 and still Belkin is saying they support MS-Windows XP (all versions, I have Pro) 64-bit, but have yet to provide the drivers. I feel ripped off and robbed, as I'm stuck with products that don't work and are hence worthless!
