All four I bought and installed (all indoors)are still working perfectly and seem to live up to listed specs perfectly. I have not tested under outdoor conditions, but this looks weather tight (but not watertight).

This is my second order of this product. The first one was able to up my connection from 1 bar to 4/5. This is across a 250 yard field and through several walls. Works great for me. Just plug and go.

Software will not work with Apple Snow Leopard or Lion. Sees the networks but crashes when you try to connect. Support near non-existent. After a great deal of digging around, I find I'm not the only one out there with this problem. If they ever update the software, I'd give it five stars.

I give my neighbor free Internet. We have tried different kinds of USB devices and none have been half as good as this antenna. It is 100' from my router antenna (line of sight). With my G router he gets 5 bars and 54MBPS. It doesn't get any better than that! On my router I use a D-Link ANT24-0700 2.4GHz Omni-Directional 7dBi Indoor Antenna. It is the best I have used.I built and maintain the WIFI in our community building so I've had experience with antennas. The POWERLINK has the best bang for the buck.

This antenna really does a great job. I hit a link from three miles away in Nome Alaska. It connected and I established a VPN secure pipe to get a job completed. You do have to take a little time aiming it since it is a directional antenna, but it worked flawlessly. It should be noted this was a low RF noise area so this likely helped with the performance. This is the best wireless that I have tested. Next test will be from cruise ship to shore when in port to see if I can hit some hot spots. Will update review when we return.

This antenna ROCKS!! I've installed two now for customers and both have exceeded my expectations for performance dramatically. Longer distance to router? No problem! Brick

READ THIS PLEASE BEFORE YOU BUY THIS ITEM!!!! If you have WINDOWS VISTA do not buy this item because the driver it is not compatible and affects your startup system... I called with the guys who manufacture this item and they gave me some of the lastest drivers but none works with windows VISTA.. if you have a WINDOWS XP buy it ... you will not have any problems ... I rated with 3 stars because I solve my problem using my windows XP laptop otherwise I would rather rate the item with 1 star

This is an excellent USB wireless adapter. I am using it in my RV and the reception gains are outstanding. I have used N wireless notebook cards, USB dongle's with antennas and this Powerlink unit puts everything else to shame. At one particular wireless hotspot I was getting only about a 50% signal reception. Now the reception through the Powerlink is 100% and the speed increase is 1000%. I was amazed to see how many more networks this adapter picks up and how far away it can get a connection. I was able to connect to one network that I verified was two miles from my location with a very usable internet connection!!!! If you are an RV owner this is an outstanding wireless adapter. I highly recommend this to anyone who has a week connection to their wireless network. The two cons I have for the unit are it's large size and it is directional so it must be aimed at the wireless hotspot. In my opinions these are minor tradeoffs to the superb performance this unit provides.

Works better than expected in getting a connection from a remote garage in a townhouse complex. Very pleased with the nice snap together/apart design that looks pretty weatherproof.

I am totally amazed with this product. I've bought other items from Meritline…but this is by far the best. It has increased signal strength (from a company router in a building 100-125 feet away, and tucked away in the opposite corner) from 12% on my MacBook wireless to 50-60% with the Powerlink. Link quality is always excellent, easily enough to be full speed. I haven't had to install it outdoors…it's sitting on a desk by a window. The antenna is directional so it does need to be pointed toward the source for best quality. The wireless utility software shows signal strength on the fly. Set up was a breeze. It's also easy to turn the MacBook into a portable hotspot for for a wireless signal for my iPad and iPod…and it works perfectly with download speeds indistinguishable from the hardwired Powerlink.
