Review summary This easy-to-install notebook card offers speedy performance and comes with the best warranty in the business. As versatile as it is inexpensive, the Linksys WPC55AG is an excellent choice for those commuting between 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks. High throughput, long range, and lots of options make this wireless dual-band card an excellent choice for business users on the go, but consumers should pick a product with friendlier software. This is the most versatile CompactFlash Wi-Fi adapter we've seen, and it's the best option available for adding wireless to a PDA. The WG511T is a good choice for speed demons and those looking for a long-range PC Card adapter.
