What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: You can use this either as a WiFi receiver on a PC, or as a WiFi router for a LAN connection if the PC is on.
Cons: The CD included are not working and a waste of time! Download the following driver:

/RT307X
The effect out is 200mW, not 3000mW. But still this is 4 times stronger than ordinary and should give you better transmitting signal.
Other: Great product once I found the correct driver. Price is reasonable, you get both the radio unit and the antenna.
I think you should get double range using the enclosed antenna. I am going to try it using a dipole next.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Antenna cable + miniUSB cable allow a user to place the antenna away from a notebook, even outdoors (under the roof, as I'm not sure if the dish is waterproof Ubuntu 12.04 supports Ralink 3070 chip out-of-the-box Tens of wireless networks available, the signal is about 10dBi stronger than what the internal netbook's wi-fi provides The price is excellent The dish can be connected to any router with detachable antennas
Cons: None, in my opinion Only the numbers in the description are wrong: the wi-fi chip's output power is 200mW (read somewhere in the Internet, still 2-6 times more than in other wi-fi chips). The antenna is, I think, 8-10dbi, as it is much smaller than my 14dBi TrendNet wi-fi dish. By the way, the info on one side of the box my wi-fi came in says the antenna is 16dBi, and the other side says it is 18dBi :-)
Other: A must-have for anyone who has a weak signal level from a distant access point
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Good Signal Easy to use Inexpensive Long Cord Adapter Cord
Cons: Generic Build Small Driver CD-Rom (wont fit in mac) Drivers must be tracked down
Other: happy with purchase download and try drivers from here, otherwise it will not work http://www.argtek.com/style/frame/templates1/download.asp?lang=2&customer_id=1718&name_id=59309&rid=2840&content_set=
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Easy to connect and Windows XP and Windows 7 detects it immediately.
Cons: Driver that comes with DOES NOT WORK. The other reviews regarding driver from ArgTek site and RalinkTech site is bang on. You will need those drivers for the 3070. Worked perfect on first try on XP but as found along with others through Internet often will not work with Windows 7 unless you uninstall and reinstall your FIREWALL after you have properly installed all Ralink 3070 software (which is the chipset in this as with many others).
Other: You get a USB wireless receiver setup that I have now tested and made work with XP and Win 7. Reasonable price. Fast shipping. I was always happy with DealExtreme and I have found they ship faster than ever now.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Great software (Once you find the correct one to download!)
Cons: I discovered that if you open the antenna, and shorten the antenna lead so that it is only 20cm long, you get much better gange! To do this you need a screwdriver, pliers and a small star screwdriver. I got from 60% signal to 80% signal from removing the long lead. Rather use a thick USB extension cord, I use a 3m long USB cable of thick and good quality.
Other: Great product, I get 80% signal compared to 0% signal without using this product. I get connection over 2km using this product in free sight! Transmitting power is 200mW and could be more, but if the other end is 50mW you may not need more anyhow.
