The good: WPA and 802.1x security; fast maximum throughput; removable, external antenna.
The bad: Mediocre mixed-mode throughput; harder to install than a simple USB adapter; for Windows OS-based computers only.
The bottom line: The DWL-G520 offers solid speed and security, but like all PCI adapters, it's a pain to install.
