Does NOT work with Mac Ibook [Posted on 2005-03-06]
Instructions are useless - they're just a description - I spent over 2 hours with Belkin Customer service and was completely unable to make the thing function.
DOES work with Mac OS 10.4 [Posted on 2005-06-11]
I have this working just fine right now on my Mac G4 desktop with Tiger. HOWEVER - I downloaded the driver for 10.2 and installed the adapter, and THEN upgraded from 10.2 to 10.4. I know they don't yet have a driver for 10.4 available, but if you can get it to work with a eariler OS then it can work in 10.4
POS if you want to set up a more secure system [Posted on 2005-09-20]
I bought it for the price (it was on sale). I have DSL so the .b speed is plenty. Worked initially when there was not much security. But, the moment you enabled WAP etc, it worked when the PC was on, but lost its settings after a reboot. You have to enter wep keys every time !!! Tech support -- after loooooog waits, flounders around, abliet very politely. After 2-3 calls, they escsalated the levels to "level 3" who was supposed to call back with a solution, but does not. Basically, they will drag / delay etc till you give up & tey do not have to honor the lifetime warranty they advertise. Also, I had XP related problems (as did a few others). I have been working on PCs for 20 yrs, and this is a bust. Avoid if you want security. If you live in the farm and do not care about neighbors, I think it will work provided you do not load the adapter with encryption etc.
Bought this years ago, and it is still going... [Posted on 2007-05-18]
This is one great network adapter. I bought this many years ago, and have used it with my Tivo Series two and both have worked flawlessly with my home network. I dont know what I would do without it, and dont know what I will do should it ever give up the ghost! So far so good!
Don't Waste Your Money on this POS! [Posted on 2007-07-30]
It never worked, factory support was non-existant, and that pretty much sums up our experience with Belkin.
