Comments about Linksys AE2500 Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Adapter:
I was surprised to see the convenient slim body with rounded corners and relatively small size. I am comparing to the Linksys AE1000 and Asus USB-N53 which I also own.
I didn't put it through any distance nor speed test, but it performed well in normal use.
I did not use the CDROM nor setup software. I just downloaded the Driver from Linksys' website and it worked well on my WinXP machine. It was easy to switch between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
I was using it in my office to access big files on our office file-server, which means that I was using it at much higher speed than most users who only use it to connect to the Internet (no specific measurements).
