Bought this card for use with OSX86 [Posted on 2008-03-18] works great. Used the airport kext from 10.4.8 and it works fine. only problem is you need to use network diagnostics to connect to WPA networks.

Great Wireless Cardbus Adapter for my Linux Laptop [Posted on 2008-04-28] I bought the D-Link DWL-G630 in the hopes that I could use the native Atheros driver under Linux on an old laptop I am resurrecting. I was glad to see that the card I recieved was the C2 hardware revision, which does indeed use the Atheros chipset. (My understanding is that some revs of this card use a different chipset.)
I put the card in the slot, booted up, loaded the Atheros driver module, configured my WEP, and BINGO, I was online. Although Linux has many strong suits, wireless networking is not one of them. I was glad that this D-Link card worked so painlessly.
This may be a trivial point, but I love the color scheme of the D-Link label on the card. It's a touch retro, I think, which appeals to me.
I would also like to put in a plug for the particular Amazon vendor I chose: Compuwise Expert Solutions, for amazingly low price and exceptionally fast shipping.
I am extremely pleased with this purchase, and I highly recommend this wirelesss adapter.
Does the job at a great price [Posted on 2008-05-19] I've got an older laptop, dual-booting XP Pro and Kubuntu 8.04. Booted into XP, installed the drivers, installed the card, and everything works just fine. Booted into Kubuntu with the card still inserted, and didn't even have to install anything -- the card was recognized, configured, and surfing instantly.
I would highly recommend this card for Linux users...
D-Link DWL Wireless Network Card [Posted on 2008-05-27] Item as advertised. Saved myself alot of money and shipped fast. Would reccomend to others.
Not Working [Posted on 2008-06-30] I bought this card for my laptop which has Windows NT Workstation 4 Service Pack 4 installed. Cannot get it to work. Keep getting an error message and when I contact D Link I get a response that says it is for Windows XP. So evidently they are not reading the information I emailed them. Have been trying to install this for 4 days with no luck.
