Pros: reasonable price

Cons: a bit of setup trouble

Overall: not a bad unit for the hammering I give mine with 60gig/month downloading off 2 PC's, so Im happy after a few small set up probs it works well and the price is competative with others

Pros: Awesome! I'm able to connect it with both my laptop and PS2. A few minor downends but runs good in the long end. Provides up to 108Mbps of bandwidth. Uses both IEEE 802.11b/g standard connection.

Cons: There are problems in the documentation that needs to be rewritten. The HTML installation information, the device, overall doesn't seem to be properly complemented in the docs.

Overall: Uses a 2.4GHz frequency that considers the highest point of reception, which the WGT624 uses efficiently. But this frequency could be subject to possible interference which might cause interferences in connection. Nevertheless, the product works great. Ideally, users with indept networking knowledge should use this to maximize connection and minimize interferences.
