What Customers Say About D-Link DWA-556 Xtreme N PCI Express Desktop Adapter:

I had always thought a 56K modem should get 56K transfers but they never did. Who exactly is supposed to be keeping these guys honest, anyway. It seems wireless N now gets 54K when setup with optimum equipment. It's not noticable under most conditions, to be honest, but in case you were wondering about the wild claims from the industry, this is a real world result. At least the 802.11N broadcast signal makes it throughout our house, unlike the 802.11G. But you're still better off wiring your house for speed.

I have had a DIR-655 D-Link wireless router for some time now, and just installed this DWA-556 into a new PC that I built. Works like it should - no setup problems at all. Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on a Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P mobo, Core i5-750 2.66ghz overclocked to 3.40ghz, 8 GB DDR3 SDRAM PC3 12800. What more can I say - it works like it should.

I recently returned a Linksys WRT610N and an accompanying adapter because I had some serious problems with it.This product was easy to setup, worked right out of the box with no problems.Definitely worth the price.

I've never booted the computer and not had wifi-it just simply works every time, without fail, no questions asked.There's a green activity light on the back of the device that blinks off, and on whenever the signal is being accessed, which is 100% of the time, so it's blinking a lot but it's not annoying at all. I don't have much to write about this great product except to say that it works 110% to the good, has no obvious faults or problems, achieves close to 300Mb/s speed without tweaking, fiddling around, or special configuration, and overall is not to be feared as a PCI-Express network adapter. The three "antenna" that stick out the back of the unit are flexible and can point up at a 45-degree angle to acquire the signal better. I was using its PCI equivalent, the DWA-552 "N" Adapter for almost 2 months with similar success, and was forced to start using the PCI-Express variety because I started using twin EVGA GTX-285 video cards in the PC, and lost the PCI slot in the process. This is an install it, and forget it system, and works 100% seamlessly with any Vista 64-bit system. The adapter is small, only weighs a few grams, certainly less than 4-ounces or so, and takes up very little space in the PCI cavity of the computer, a plus.I just used the drivers off the original CD ROM, never even bothered with the D-Link web site and the "latest drivers" which I guess should be done at some point, but I'm having zero problems with the adapter so I've been reluctant to test fate and change a thing at this point.That's about it for my review of this product. It works, it's simple to work with, install, there is no maintenance or trickery needed to get it functioning 100% with a Vista 64-bit system, so I recommend it highly and give it my 5-Stars Seal of Approval: *****.Wavey Davey 7-26-2009

Product works as advertised. Installed with Windows XP with no issues, and connection speeds are blazing fast at the other end of the house (where I could not get a decent connection before using a Network G card).
