TP-Link TL-WN520G 54Mbps 11g Wireless LAN Adapter Dongle

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Network and Connectivity
from: TP-Link


I got delivered TP-Link TL-WN321G instead of TP-Link TL-WN520G. It's pretty good but wonder if it's software or something inside that thing that when it discconects it's taking long time to get back and running but it's mostly of my place because there is a weak signal so if it was strong I don't think there would be a problem with that dongle. It was the same problem with belkin adapter. I'm sure if it was near router it would work properly. Experience with this one is better. The best one I ever had was 3COM 3CRUSB10075 but I broke it and after that it's only trouble finding better one because I can't find any better even with more expensive it's beating.
You'll never know till you try by yourself.

NETGEAR WG111 54 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adaptor (802.11b, 802.11g) Windows Vista Compatible (2007 edition)

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Network and Connectivity
from: Netgear


I have used this adaptor both on computers running XP and now VISTA.
I have had not 1 problem with using on either whatsoever.
Other reviewers warn you about using it on VISTA - well all i did was to plug it into my new DELL desktop and it was up and running in 3 minutes !!
I did'nt need to down load new drivers or anything. So where the other reviewers came across VISTA prolems i don't know.
Great bit of kit.

Solwise Home Plug Ethernet Twin Pack works with PC - Mac - Linux - Games Consoles, anything with an Ethernet Port

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Network and Connectivity

I bought these as I was unhappy about wireless, both for privacy and (potential) health reasons. Out of the box they worked perfectly first time. Brilliant.

A couple of months later I was doing some work in the summer house which is about 30 feet from the house, and realised that I needed to access the web. As I already had trailed an extension cable from the house so I could use my laptop for more than 30 minutes - the time it takes the battery to go flat, I decided to try my luck and plug in the adapter into the extension cable as well. I didn't hold out much hope, as it says on the box it doesn't work on extension cables - but it did! The Powerpacket utility reports a high quality signal, and a speed of 77.35Mbs. I'd like ...

This adaptor worked brilliantly for about two weeks, then the connection became intermittent at best, with error messages telling me it had malfunctioned and was not recognized, and has now completely given up altogether. Very disappointed after such a promising start.

Belkin G+ Wireless USB Network Adapter 125Mbps

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Network and Connectivity
from: Belkin Components

Adapter worked for a week with no problems (apart from sometimes getting a very weak signal from a wireless router attached to a PC 10 metres away in a downstairs room) and then died. The green LED would not light up. I contacted Belkin who told me to change some settings. This didn't work. I re-installed the software. This didn't work so I downloaded new drivers from Belkin website. Still no luck. I returned the adapter to Belkin who sent me a new one free of charge as part of their lifetime warranty. It worked for 1 hour but when I went to use it several hours later it had died again - no green LED. Re-installed software - still no life. Attached it to a different PC - still no life.

I wouldn't recommend this device. It may be cheap ... Read More:

I found this wireless card extremely easy to install. All I had to do was click 'Install' and 'Finish' and it was pretty much working straight away, which is great because installing these things can sometimes be a bit of a nightmare!

Netgear GS608 8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switch

Always liked netgear equipment, its always easy to set-up and "does what it says on the tin"
Simply plug a cross over LAN cable from one of your router LAN connections and the other into one of the hub ports and hey presto an extra 7 LAN connections, no set-up or anything.
Only bad thing I can say is it doesn't actually tell you to use a cross over cable, being a network engineer I just automatically assumed it needed one, it may not, as it could auto detect the cable, but would of thought it should mention something one way or the other

Amendment
OK couldn't help wondering about the LAN cable, tested with normal cable and yes it auto detects cable and still works.
so don't need cross over cable.

Sony Ericsson HBH-608 Lightweight Akono Bluetooth Headset - Black/Silver

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Network and Connectivity
from: Sony

I agree completely with Gadget Geek, this is a great bluetooth headset for comfort, reception, recharging, wearing with spectactles, all great. Trouble is, the ear hook may break either at the top of the curve or at the circular end where it clips onto the actual earpiece. Between myself and my colleagues we own 5 of these headsets and all 5 have suffered from broken ear hooks. They do get a lot of use ~ worn daily, and taking a lot of calls and it did take on average a year for the ear hooks to fail.

Sony provided me with the following address;

Freepost NATW1026
Kuehne-Nagel Logistics
Unit 2A
Appletree Road
Chipping Warden
