Works well, couple of concerns August 31, 2010
ksuwildkat (Monterey, CA)
Apparently my Airport card failed in my almost 4 year old MacBookPro and replacing it was going to cost $[...] plus labor. I am overdue for a replacement and didnt want to spend $[...] for something I wasnt going to use in 6 months.
Writing this review connected with this so if you are reading this, it works.
So that is the most important thing, it works. I unpacked it, screwed in the antenna and then went to the Alpha website for drivers. I had to google the model number because as you can see, the address is not the most obvious.
[...]
Downloading the drivers was interesting because you get directed to [...] free file sharing site. Apparently keeping down costs is important. The Mac drivers were for 10.3-10.6 but there was a warning that the Snow Leopard drivers did not work. I attempted to instal them anyway and was rewarded with a working system. But the software does in fact fail randomly. While it was working, I could see that this little thing has some serious range and pulling power. Instead of the normal 3 networks visible (2 mine, one next door) I got 8, one of which I know is over 300 meters away. Not bad.
Now for the bad part. This thing looks pretty fragile. Tomorrow I am buying a short USB extension cord so I dont have this plugged directly into the port. And it has a very annoying blue light to tell you its working. Black tape will solve that.
I have tried it with and without the antenna and in the house it works fine without an antenna.
Overall, Im very happy. I have wireless again and when I retire this machine I can hang on to this as a backup. Always good to have plan B!

 WiFi for my PC August 22, 2010
David R. Smouse (Chandler,Arizona)
We wre currently having to stay at an extended stay hotel/motel until we find another place to live and since they offer free WiFi, I needed to get this for my desktop PC so I could go online. It works great and was a lot less expensive on Amazon.com than anywhere else I researched and delivered for a decent cost.
Cheap yet powerful. August 13, 2010
David J. Kauffman (Kalamazoo, MI USA)
I bought this to use with my Viewsonic VMP75 media player as it is recommended for this unit.
Pros:
Cheap
Strong signal
Cons:
It feels REALLY cheap
It's kind of big
Overall I can't complain. It was as easy as screwing in the antenna and plugging it into my VMP75 player and it was up and running. Just wish it wasn't so large.
