Works great with Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon running the ath5k driver. Getting 48 to 53 Mbps on a router that is not D-Link.

I actually purchased this wireless adapter for my father-in-law's business laptop over a year ago and he has since upgraded and the laptop, and adapter, are now here at my home. The wireless adapter was exactly what he needed and now that it's in my hands it works perfectly even outside (and my wireless router is in the basement). Very happy with this product and would recommend it to anybody looking for a wireless adapter. The card is far superior to USB adapters and only sticks out about an inch instead of several as some USB adapters. And I've always been happy with the D-Link products I've used and purchased. Definitely buy this instead of a USB wireless adapter. Mine is very used and the outside has even cracked from heavy use and it still works like a charm!

I installed Linux Antix (Mepis) on old laptop and wanted to use wifi without needing ndis wrapper. I bought this used D-Link cardbus adapter through Amazon, plugged it in, and it worked instantly.

I bought this for my mac laptop back in 2006. It was easy to install and every now and then I pull the old laptop out and this still works.

I feel the time from my order to receiving the item was within a reasonable time period. The item was exactly what I needed. My exxperiance with Ebay was a desaster. I had to send the item back and I never received a refund or anything back. Stay clear of Ebay.

I got this one to replace the one that died on me. It was fairly old. This one was much faster and arrived quickly. It was very easy to install. I was very pleased with it.

After failing to get another wireless card working on my Linux laptop, I came across this Atheros-chipset card on Amazon. It comes at a relatively low price, around $15 including shipping.However, there are some issues to be aware of when using this card on a Linux system. First, early DWL-G650's (hardware version Ax) have a completely different chipset and, as far as I could tell, are not known to work at all under Linux. My guess is that those are the 54-mbps models. (Can anyone verify this?) Mine, which works, is a 108-mbps, hardware version B5.Second, you need the MadWifi driver to use this card. Ath5k, the newer alternative, didn't work for me. In Debian 4.0 Etch, MadWifi is a pain in the neck to set up. The madwifi-source package from Debian doesn't even compile after the recent kernel update to 2.6.24. You have to download a more recent version of the driver from madwifi.org and compile it. In other words, if you don't have some experience with compiling kernel modules, don't even think about getting this card. (Set-up may be easier in other Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, and maybe it will be easier in Lenny; I don't know.)That said, I am quite pleased with the card's performance and reliability. I have never had trouble connecting. (But I am on a university campus with access points everywhere, so I don't know how it would work in a home or city setting.)

I bought this wireless adapter even though my older Dell has an internal wireless card. I had purchased a wireless g router about a year ago and just felt I could make do with 10mbps that my internal wireless card allowed. My internet was lagging so I did some research and found this card real cheap!Shipping was on time and no problems with my order.It is new in box so I just unwrapped, installed drivers and software, rebooted and plugged in the card...viola!works great..no more dropping, I have a very good to excellent signal throughout my 2 story with plaster walled house (these old plaster walls really can kill the signal). My wireless router is (also a D-Link) upstairs in my bedroom and I typically use my laptop in the living room with an excellent signal downstairs. 108mbps is great. Now if only Comcast would stop reducing signals!

This product worked out of the box with nearly any linux distribution i threw it at. it even worked on older hardware!

I bought this item to add wireless to an older laptop. It worked perfectly with Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope out of the box.

Based on some of the reviews here, I bought this to replace a Linksys WPC54G card, which is not supported by Linux (Ubuntu 7.10) without some painful setup. It is revision B5.I had previously set up WPA on Ubuntu for my network.I booted Ubuntu on my laptop (an old Dell Inspiron 8100) with no card. After it was up, I inserted the G650. Ubuntu recognized it and connected to my Linksys WRT54G router with no problems. I rebooted the laptop with the card left in place, and it reconnected to the router with no problems.Note that D-Link absolutely does not support Linux with this card. They're happy to sell you the card, and they do provide a link to the MadWifi group from their Tech Support pages, but they won't touch it otherwise.The DWL-G650 gets 4 stars for two reasons:(1) After a connection to the network is completed, the two indicator lights on the card blink once a second. This is amazingly annoying when I am working on the laptop. The Windows documentation doesn't say anything about being able to turn the blinks off; I have an open support question to D-Link about this. (The Linksys card had one light that stayed solid except for slight blinking during message traffic.) I have a feeling I'm going to have to put some tape over the lights. [2008-02-09 - D-Link support says I'm stuck with the blinking lights. Time for some tape.](2) Compared to the Linksys, the DWL seems to be less sensitive to signal strength. Ubuntu showed 5 bars with the Linksys, and 4 with the DWL. Same PC, same OS, same position on my desk. I didn't test transfer speeds.

This is a good product. It replaces an earlier card, DWL650+ that had become dated. Though it still worked, it was not able to interface with some of the newer security demands. This is a much faster replacement. It works well with both XP-Professional Linux (both Ubuntu and Puppy).

This card works right out of the box. Easy to set up and works great. The only con about this product is I need to pop it out and push it back in again everytime I turn on my super old laptop, which is not that bad. Highly recommended.

The instructions were pretty clear. Unfortunately I could not get it to connect to my network. It had no problem connecting to other networks in my neighborhood but not mine.I asked Dlink for help and got no response.

I wanted a PCMCIA wireless card for my 2.4Ghz (older) laptop running Slackware 12.0. After fussing with /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf and getting ndiswrapper set up, everything works fantastic! I was wondering how a $9 card would be, but I highly recommend it.

I bought this item to use on a Linux laptop. Installation was easy as Ubuntu pretty much took care of everything. I've been using it for a couple of months w/out interruption. Works great.

Easy installation. Worked with no probems. Low price. Arrived in about 3 days after I ordered it, in time for a Christmas gift. What more could I ask for ?

When your laptop's built-in wifi card dies, just buy one of these instead of spending over $100 at the shop fixing it. Great backup wifi card.

The Setup was a bit odd as you need to install the software utility before installing the card. Reports connected at 108Mbps because a I have a DLink router that also supports it. You cant' the part that sticks out of the laptop feels a bit flimsy, but it'll probably good enough.

It's cheap, and it works well. What else can I say? I'm actually using this product on my Mac (PowerBook G4) with a third-party driver from [...] and it still works great! This is also a great card if you're into things like hacking in a coax cable for connection to an external antenna -- it's an easy mod. (Not that such things are in any way condoned by the manufacturer, Amazon, myself, or anyone else... ;) I get great reception where before I had none (although I blame that mostly on my Mac's weak wi-fi). Definitely worth the price.

I bought 5 of these cards for 5 laptops and 3 of them r working after lot of work, but 2 of them r still not setup. And so they r not working. So basically its just about the luck to get it get it setup.But once setup, it works great.

I have a D-Link DWL-G650 wireless LAN card and it works great with MS Windows XP and Linux! I use Kubuntu 8.10, 8.04, Puppy 4.01 and it just works with my wireless network. A great wireless card, so good I want a second one as a spare...

I currently have two of these cards and I have been very happy with them. I haven't had any issues installing drivers. The card always seems to connect and work well. I also have a D-Link wireless router so the cards connect at 108Mbps, double the 802.11g rated speed of 54Mbps. I would recommend this card.

The G650 installed effortlessly and i was on the web immediately...This solved the problem I was having with the built in wireless.and for less than it would have cost to correct it by a tech person..Part of my decision for going with D-Kink was success with other products ..the other was a great price at Amazon.

Initially, understanding how to switch between Windows XP and D-Plus AirPlus configration utilites was a bit confusing. After I got though that, all went well until I decided I did not want to broadcast my router. That's when the fun began. When I would turn off my broadcast, I was not able to connect. After weeks of trying various things, I believe there were combination of factors contributing to my lack of reliable connection which included a cordless phone, neighbors on the same channel and the beacon inerval on the router. Now, most of the time I just plug in my card and I am connected depending on the utility I using. I guess I must like it. I just bought another one.

I got this wireless card because I wanted to try to find one with a broader range than the one I currently have. This one seemed to be able to do the job, so I ordered it here on Amazon.After installing the software and inserting the card, my laptop completely froze. Restarted my computer and tried again and again and again. Each time, the card froze my laptop. I even uninstalled then reinstalled and tried some more...no luck.It could just be some sort of incompatibilty with my particular laptop, but I highly doubt it. I think its much more likely that this wireless adapter is a piece of junk.

Have now been using this card (PCMCIA) for a couple of years. It works much better than the Airport card that came with my Pismo Mac Powerbook. When the Airport failed it had been discontinued but thanks to D-link I am still on the air. Excellent piece.

got this this 108 mbps card to use with my home router works great so far no problems its been about 2 weeks

Did not install properly. DLInk customer services was not one bit helpful. Drivers have not passed Microsoft's scrunity. I cannot recommend this at all.

This card was a snap to get working with my Debian Linux (Etch) laptop. It uses the madwifi linux driver and other utilities, most of which are on the Debian install disks. Don't bother with the ndiswrapper even if your wireless is built in, get this card instead and save yourself the headache..

I bought this product to get 2 Dell laptops on my network. These productswould not work properly with my Dell 3800 or Dell 5000. When plugged intothe laptop, the keys on the right side of the keyboard quit working. I tried three more different cards before I found some that worked properly.The problem evidently was the laptops and not the D-Link DWO-G650 cards.

Good card, i received the range i wanted however the cards rate is 54mb not 108mb as indicated on the box..

Excellent card. Speed is faster than wired. Extended range is a real plus. Easy set up and reliable connections. Recommend highly.

This card was money well spent. It took only a few minutes to install & it works extremely well. I recommend this to anyone with a Laptop.

The D-Link wireless G adapter has been a great addition to my home network. I installed it on an old Dell Latitude CPiA laptop I recently replaced as too outdated. The addition of $[...] of memory from E-Bay and upgrade to XP and this old machine is hanging ten as it surfs the web. I get better wireless connectivity around the house with it than I'm receiving from my new Wi-Fi capable Toshiba. Happy? Yes! Good product, Great price, Fast delivery and Terrific functionality. Oh, and my eight year old grandson is happy to have wireless connectivity in his room.

I have an old Dell c600 laptop that is running Xubuntu 7.10. I stuck this in for my first attempt at Linux and wireless networking. I had it up and running in 10 mintues. Why 10 minutes? Because I forgot my network password and had to look it up. Seriously people, plugged it in, turned it on, entered password and surf the internet.I have been online for about 4 hours now with about a 60% signal strength. Got all my updates downloaded at about 250kbps. That is just fine and dandy. I want to stress to fellow Linux users that I did not have to do anything, plug it in, turn it on. Xubuntu automatically installed the Atheros Hardware Access Layer restricted driver for me. This was so much easier than the XP network I set up for my uncle. That took days and many calls to linksys support.

Drivers on web site for ubuntu linux. I used ndiswrapperto install. Works well. One con is that each time I restart I must manually go into network manager to connect.

Received the card today and had it up and running in less than 10 minutes with zero hassle. Just followed the clear instructions to install the drivers from the CD-ROM, shut down the NB, plugged in the card and re-booted. It found my home network immediately, entered the password - done !Getting great throughput via my Apple router - within the usual limitation of the truly terrible AT&T DSL connection.Great product, great price , zero hassle !

I installed this last night on my Dell Laptop and had absolutely no problems with the CD-rom or the adapter. I am using this with a Linsky's Wireless G router, not a D-Link, and it works perfectly. I get reception from anywhere in my house, upstairs or down. Reception is Excellent on the same floor(2nd) as the router, Good or Very Good on the first floor. I've only used it for a day so I cannot review how reliable this is over the long-haul, but so far I'm very pleased with my purchase.

I got a DWL-G650 for my Linux laptop at the suggestion of one of my friends who had one. Before I bought this I had used a DWL-G630 and an older Linksys card, both of which worked great when I used Windows but were lacking when I tried them in Linux. Plugging in this one was like the difference between night and day. It was recognized by a kernel module without me having to mess around with any drivers and right away was showing open access points along with ones encrypted with WEP and WPA. So far, it hasn't given me any of the problems I've experienced with other cards in Linux. My only issue is that I've had troubles getting it set to monitor mode, but that may be asking too much of any decently-priced card.
