Hey guys I just bought a wireless lan usb adapter and I have to say this thing rocks. It's made by EnGenius and the model number is EUB-362 (EXT). It even comes with a removable antenna for those of you looking for that feature. I installed it in my driveway and after getting it all set up, I immediately had a connection to the internet! I don't have wireless in my house so it was picking up another connection somewhere else. I tried with two other usb wifi adapters and both of them didn't get near as good as connection as this thing does. I have it sitting in the rear deck of my car and I get perfect reception there. So yeah, I just wanted to say that this adapter is HIGHLY recommended! Here are a few photos:
I'm extremely pleased with mine. My Linksys only shows one access point, but with the EnGenious I see 5 more access points. Found mine on ebay using buy-it-now.
I've got this same adapter and it gets great reception. I'm having trouble with it blocking my shut-down procedures though? Whenever it's plugged in my computer takes forEVER to shut down, but if i unplug it while it's shutting down, it will shut down almost right away. Any ideas LURCH?
Well the shutdown works alright now... don't know what happened with that. I'm just having a HELL of a time finding and keeping a connection for any period of time. Half the time it won't find a network at all, the other half it finds a network and gets great signal, but won't transfer a damn byte of information. I've reinstalled the drivers twice and I'm starting to get fed up with it.
This adapter is indeed good. 200mW. Im using them on dish reflector antennas with biquad feed. remooving casing, soldering LMR400 direct into PCB from biquadfeed, weatherproof enclosure, works like thunder
