Customer Reviews
Worked perfectly 
2007-11-16
I bought this card for our notebook computer which we sometimes travel with. There was no problem with installation, it was quick and easy. The card worked perfectly as soon as I was near a wi-fi station and guided me through the connection using my At&T fast access dsl account. Highly recommended.
Netgear WG511T Super G 108 Mbps PC card 2007-09-26
Provides what the LinkSys card would not. Connection speed and range. Easy installation of software. Great product.
Finally a wireless card that works with Linux! 2007-09-15
After installing just about every linux distribution there is and trying 3 separate cards, I finally found a combination that works out of the box. SUSE Linux Enterprise Distribution for Workstations (SLED10) will automatically detect this card during installation. Even though the specs for this wireless card only say WEP 64 or 128, the SLED10 driver will also allow you to configure it for WPA Personal. Make sure your router is broadcasting the SSID name during the installation. Once you have the card configured and running, you can make the SSID name invisible again.
Netgear WG511T Super G Wireless PC Card 2007-09-07
The Reviews I read all seemed to say one thing - Speed and Large Area of Reception. Well, it is true! It'll work anywhere in my home and even outside! I have gone as far away as I cared to walk outside and I still had reception and it has worked flawlessly from get go - My laptop is a Compaq 1200XL-118 running Windows 2000 Pro.
I found out newer is not better - sometimes older is tried and true. My Wireless Router is also a Netgear. I have 3 computers direct wired to it and now a laptop that works super! with no wires. My Router supports: 2 PC's XP Pro & W98se, 1 Debian 4.0, and now 1 Compaq laptop on Win2000Pro. Plus a PPC Mac OS 8.6.1

I use this card with my Linksys super G router and it all seems to work very fast with OK range. I did have some problems with setting up the router, but once I set up the wireless router to be behind my old wired router (instead of replacing it) I have had no network problems with the wired PCs, wireless laptop, or Wii! Thank goodness for effective standards organizations!
Beware

I installed this on a newly purchased laptop. This became very very "HOT" and basically burned up my laptops cpu. I am now in hand of a non-working newly purchased laptop uncovered by any warranty.
Beware!!
BUYER BEWARE! NO Super-G 108Mbps speeds for Vista 2008-04-18
There are serious driver issues with this card when it comes to Vista.
1) Netgear's latest driver (v.5.2) does not allow speeds greater than 54Mbps on Vista. The "latest" driver was released back in Novemver 2007. Previous versions dont work either. FYI I am using this card with the Netgear's Super-G 108Mbps WGT624 v3 router running the latest firmware version V2.0.26_1.0.1NA. This router is recommended by netgear's website for use with this card.
2) Whats worse is that Netgear is officially aware of this problem since May 1,2007. The following is from their website dated May 1, 2007:-
"Known limitations
Vista Driver limitation:
1. Super G (108M) is not fully supported."
Although I think Super G (108Mbps) is not supported AT ALL.
(Source: Go to Netgear's website, search for this product and go to version 5.0 released on May 1, 2007).
3) Customer service is BAD. One of them also asked me to turn off the 108Mbps mode from my router and use the router at 54Mbps b/g mode as a solution to get 108Mbps speeds on my network card (totally insane). When asked about this driver issue, they stopped answering to e-mails.
4) I haven't tried this card on XP.

It is an excellent video card for the price. Just make sure you know what version card you have so you can download the newest drivers.
GREAT! 2008-02-23
I bought this card because i needed a atheros chip wireless card for wireless network's auditing and this baby works great.
plus it has an excellent price compared to others with he same capability
i recommend it
Excellent external card 2008-01-09
Very nice external card. Doesn't quite have the range of a standard integrated card, but few mainstream external cards do.
The card works out of the box with Windows XP and Ubuntu (the driver utility must be installed first on Windows).
