Reviews of the Linksys WPC300N Notebook Adapter
-
CNET Review
The Good: The WPC300N has some good things going for it, including adequate maximum throughput, a painless setup process, clear documentation, an excellent configuration utility, and a long warranty.
The Bad: The WPC300N's mixed-mode performance is merely mediocre, and it's especially sluggish at long range.
The Bottom Line: Solid maximum throughput is not nearly enough to make us recommend the Draft N-based Linksys WPC300N. Sit tight to see how the other Draft N gear fares.
