This wireless N network adapter is selling for about $70 brand new at other places so I decided for $18 (refurbished) I would take a bite. As the product description states it comes in a plain brown box that has the Netgear logo on it. Inside there is a warranty pamphlet, a notice to visit Netgear for the latest software (but no actual driver CD or product manual), a USB extension cord, a clear plastic cap for the wifi stick (I'm guessing it's used as a little docking clip maybe?) and a cap for the USB connector when not in use. My first impression was that the stick is a bit chunkier than other wifi adapters I've used. It's definitely wider but just thick enough to fit alongside another occupied USB port on an HP desktop. As far as cosmetic condition, I've had many experiences buying refurbished/recertified/remanufactured items, and this one is fine. There were some light signs of wear, but at this price it's hardly noticeable. Now setting up the adapter (on vista) was quite a pain unfortunately. Inserting the stick and letting Windows automatically "search for drivers", proved to be futile. So I ended up visiting Netgear's support site for the latest software for this model (WN111 v2). It turns out, the latest drivers (version 3.0) could not be downloaded. I kept receiving an error from Netgear's site every time I clicked on the download button. With no other option, I had to download an older version of the driver which finally worked. Configuring the wifi stick to work with windows network gave me some trouble. Everytime the computer went to sleep or rebooted, I would have to manually reconnect to the network. In the end, I was able to fix this issue but I became so frazzled along the way, I honestly don't remember exactly how. It was either by manually selecting 'custom' install as opposed to 'express' during the installation procedure and selecting 'let windows manage my network' or something to that effect. In the end I was finally able to get the adapter to work properly. Update: Network speeds and connection strength have been fine, but the wifi stick randomly stopped working twice this week. The newest driver download on Netgear finally worked so after the upgrade it seems to be running ok again. Though I'm a little nervous if this problem will continue...
