NETGEAR GS116NA Giga Switch 16Pt Metal Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Netgear is supposed to have a 5 year warranty (2 on the power supply).I had one of these for about 18 months. Over the last months it's been increasingly flaky, every week or two it just hangs and needs to be unplugged and started again. It doesn't matter how much it's in use (it's done it when we've been on vacation with minimal network traffic).
I called Netgear to get it replaced, but they told me that it's not meant to be plugged in all day, so they won't fix it.Unless you actually unplug all your network equipement when you are not actively using it (I didn't think so), then I highly recommend avoiding Netgear products.

Dlink DWA-131 Wireless N Nano USB 2.0 Adapter 802.11b/g/n (draft) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great little adapter. It gets pretty good reception throughout my apartment and in hotels that I've been in. I haven't really seen how far it will go but where I've gone it's been perfect. The d-link software is pretty seamless, and very unobtrusive. All you see is the little taskbar icon pop up when you boot, not some huge splash screen like the belkin I had previously.
On the downside, while at Origins game fair there was a public 'g' network that it could not connect to. Once I removed it and used my laptop's native 'g' connection I connected with no troubles. The d-link just wasn't having it. Everywhere else I've been it connecting quickly with no issues though. The other downside is that after using it a while it gets pretty hot to the touch. Doesn't affect it's performance, just something I noticed.
Pros: Tiny, Unobtrusive software, Good range
Cons: It gets hot, Sometimes has trouble with non 'n' networks
