  Works fine. Not as bad as others make it out to be. (XP SP2; XP SP3) October 20, 2008
Just bought this for my desktop running over wireless. Took less than three minutes to set up initially and had it working fine on Windows XP (SP2). There used to be a problem with Windows FUS, but apparently that's been resolved; I had no problems.
Just upgraded to Service Pack 3, and I'm having more problems with Windows XP than the wireless connection. There is a slight annoyance with this file that keeps erroring out, but again, I think that has to do more with SP3 than anything else. Even with the error, my wireless is working just fine.

50 percent of the time it does not work. It does not matter if I let windows manage it or the included software.

Linksys WUSB5GC Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter September 3, 2008

I received the Adapter promptly and started to install it. First sheet in the box said "if you have Vista operation system do not use this CD, but go to the internet to get correct driver". This could be a little problem, since the adapter is for getting to the internet. I had another computer to use to get the driver from the internet. Transferred the new driver to this computer and installed the adapter --- nothing happened. It came back "can not find driver". Tried several times and still nothing. Send at least a half day calling Linksys Tech. Assistance and going thru their phone maze and getting cut off several times, just to be told to do what I had been doing all a long. Finally someone decided it might be the unit and to send to them and they would replace it. Which I did and in about a week had a new unit. I loaded the driver I had gotten off the net and installed the adapter -- nothing !! The CD they provided with the new adapter looked just like the one I have sent in with the bad adapter, I decided to load it and installed the adapter again. It worked --- part of the time. I am about 25 feet from the router, but unless the adapter is on the extension USB chord provided and above my desk, it only works part time. It works great when I log-on, but if I leave the computer run and it go into "sleep" it will not work until log-off and log back on. Then works fine.

Product works great but had to get assistance from Linksys to install. CD disc installed well but needed further instructions to make it work. Required about an hour for installation and to get it functional...
