Written By colstudent69 Date Written Apr 27 2005 Summary As part of my job I was asked to look into finding and affordable and durable USB/Ethernet adapter. At the time I was looking there were not too many available yet and this Linksys was one of the ones available. So I purchased one to try it out... Strength Easy installation, tiny size, easy to see indicator lights. Weakness weak Ethernet connection clip that broke, USB2.0 is faster now. Bottom Line Nice small design, but sacrifices durability for size. USB 2.0 is faster, so I would go with a USB 2.0 adapter.  |
