Strengths: Works like advertised, simple to install and set up with the included software. I used it to adapt a Dell PC to an Apple Time Capsule.
Weaknesses: None that I have noticed
Summary: Would not hesitate to purchase another D-Link product. Works very well for what the cost is.

Strengths: I have this adapter about 15 feet away from my router with one wall in between and I frequently see 100% signal strength. The lowest I have seen has been around 86%. I like the WPA2 capability also.
Weaknesses: This is advertised everywhere to have a transmission speed of 108 Mbps however I think a lot of us will not see that. I am using a Cradlepoint MBR1000 "N" technology router set up to "Mixed 802.11 N,G,or B" mode and automatic transmission rate and I always see 54 Mbps. Upon investigation it seems like this Dlink utilizes a G+ (for lack of a better word) technology that is somewhat proprietary and will only work with certain routers. If I am wrong on this and anyone has gotten this to work with a cradlepoint router I would like to know about it.
Summary: Overall I think it is quite good. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because I can't get 108 Mbps. I don't even need that speed but I felt like it was somewhat misrepresented when it is advertised at that speed without disclaimers.

Strengths: Very reliable.
Easy Vista installation (avoid CD installation)
Works well with D-Link DI-643M.
Weaknesses: Range is on par with WDA-1320. Expected superior range/performance (vs. WDA-1320) but not obtainable.
Summary: Don't even bother attempting to install from provided CD with Vista. The program had trouble finding the correct dll and would not run. Just allow Vista to locate the driver and perform the installation. Works like a champ!!

Summary: I've been using this unit for several months now and I am very content. With its performance. I run this unit on my desktop which is almost on the floor, right next to a wall (a corner of my bedroom to be more specific), then there are two more walls before my computer and the wireless router. I get excellent signal all the time on my windows xp box.
Very satisfied, good price.
