Title: Seriously flawed with Win98
Product review: Having successfully set up another machine with a PC card/PCI adapter a couple of weeks ago, I thought I'd try the new desktop version on a second machine. Out of the box, the card was a failure. While I could address the card, and the signal indicator said I had an "excellent" link, I couldn't move any reasonably sized data through the card (e.g., web pages took 6 minutes to load). Reviewing the Linksys web site pointed me toward a driver and firmware upgrade, but how are you supposed to download a 6mb file without a functioning broadband link? I returned it and bought another PC card/PCI adapter combo, and I'm running fine.Bottom line: if you don't have a lot of time to mess around with tuning the card, be very careful before purchasing if you're installing with Windows 98.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
