Negative Positive
Title: Poor signal, overheats
Review: Bought this item locally and paid around $30. Setup with my XP desktop system went well enough and throughput was sufficient to watch videos via the wireless network. But after a week or two of use, I noticed my signal strength steadily dropped from the high 40s initially down to 15-25%. When the signal gets down below about 30% Web pages start loading slowly and videos start buffering more than usual. Also, I noticed that the Airlink adapter would be almost too hot to touch, so I developed the habit of unplugging it when not actually in use, which is a pain. I'm returning this item and will try a PCI adapter next.
Is the review positive or negative?
