 Wireless Card works great! March 18, 2008
Bought this to go with my other D Link AirPlus products. I could not be more happy with this product! No problems at all! Better than expected performance!
It works! November 2, 2004
I have had no trouble with it or 810+ bridge that other people had claimed. I read the installation instruction and set up was a breeze (you need to install the software 1st prior to install the unit). It worked flawlessly in my Win 2k and later Win XP (both home and pro.). br /br /Signal strength is good, reliablity is great, and data transfer speed is good. br /br /Overall, good product.
 Works ok w/ driver 3.0.23.4, not with 4.15.5.1 (ver 3.07) June 29, 2004
Like everyone says, Customer Service is terrible. They deny that a problem exists, blame everything else. I had problems with their 810+ Wireless Bridge not working with WEP also, same awful experience with cust service then as well.
Not FOR W2K June 25, 2004
P1$$P00r Compatibility issues found across the www. Don't be Too late to get informed. D-Link support even less helpful than a diaper against a dam break. System lock-up maybe resolved by diabling this or that or removing other PCI devices.
Beware - major software bug causes blue screen crash March 28, 2004
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
D-Link has a major problem with it's products (including the 520+) crashing systems on power down with a blue screen and a message stating that there has been an NMI parity error in hardware. You system will be locked up. Pulling the power cord is the only way out.pWhat is REALLY bad is that I have 3 Case I.D's requesting a fix. If... if you own certain Compaq models you may... may be able to fix the problem with manual modifications to your system BIOS. However, unless you get lucky, you are stuck. There is, apparently, no real customer support at D-Link, only an automated response system that patronizes you with the issuance of a case I.D. pBe very, very careful about purchasing D-Link products. Buggy software and NO technical support nor issue resolution.
