Title: If your laptop has a PCMCIA slot, this will get you 300 Mbps.
Product review: I have a D-Link DIR-655 router along with several DWA-142 USB wireless adapters. For my HP nc8430, I needed a Draft-N adapter to utilize the greater speed of the router. I bought this, then witnessed what another reviewer stated--it won't support speeds greater than 54Mbps if you use WEP encryption. So this past week or two, I've been changing out adapters and encryption so as to check his report and it's true--employ WPA-PSK (either WPA1 or WPA2), and you'll get 300Mbps. You have to have a PCMCIA slot in your laptop (maybe there's an equivalent Express slot model, I don't know, but this won't fit in it), but if you do, disable the wireless radio in your laptop and after installing D-Link's latest drivers, use XP's Zero Wireless Utility--I think I missed a word there--to configure it (ah, Configuration). After that, you'll be flying. Shop prices--these things are all over the place, but the technology--Draft or not--is stable and secure.
