What customers say about Linksys WMP 600 N Wireless-N Dual Band Adapter (Dual-Band; Wireless-N; PCI)?
Great wireless adapter for Windows 7,
My main reason for purchasing this was because I had upgraded my computer from a Windows XP Pro operating system to Windows 7 x64 Pro. The previous adapter I had no longer worked and I needed a replacement quick. I did a bit of research to find a Windows 7 compatible wireless adapter and found that Cisco offered the best range at the time.
This product was easy to install and was indeed compatible with Windows 7 x64. I’ve not had a problem with it; this adapter offers quick connectivity and fast download speeds with our wireless broadband. In comparison to my old adapter, my download speeds have increased quite significantly.
You won’t be disappointed with this product; I can guarantee it will work with Windows 7.

|Great card,
** This review is partially technical, but will hopefully help others in a similar situation. ** (slightly modified from the Edimax review I wrote earlier)
I previously had an Edimax EW-7612Pin which was supplied pre-installed in a new computer. However it wasn’t giving me the performance I needed and I upgraded to a WMP600N-EU – my experience follows:
Using the Edimax card connected to my Linksys WRT160N it connected at a reported 300Mbps (using the 40MHz channel). However, transfer rates were still little more than about 4 or 5MB/sec. I upgraded the WRT160N router to a Linksys E3000 which is a dual band 2.4Ghz/5GHz router. However, the EW-7612PIn is not dual band and is not able to connect at 5Ghz, only 2.4GHz, and for some reason, with the E3000 it would never use the 40MHz channel; this meant that it could never establish a link at 300Mbps, but in fact only 72Mbps, that is, 2.4GHz band with the 20MHz channel. With that, my transfer rates were still limited to 4 or 5MB/sec.
I swapped out the EW-7612PIn card for a Linksys WMP600N-EU which IS a dual band card. With both transceivers on the router configured to broadcast the same SSID, the card was then able to take advantage of the dual band (and of course 5GHz/40Mhz), and despite only connecting at 130Mbps (likely due to obstacles/interference), I saw a significant improvement on transfer rates with tests showing initial transfer rates of 10MB/sec, dropping down to around 7 to 8MB/sec sustained for larger files. I’m not sure why it can’t sustain 10MB/sec, but this is still a significant improvement over 4 or 5MB/sec with the Edimax card.
The WMP600N was very easy to install and after first installing the drivers, then the card itself in a standard PCI slot, it then worked straight away – this was under Windows 7 64bit.

|Works through solid concrete walls!,
I have two solid concrete walls which no wireless Internet seemed to penetrate. Used in conjunction with the Cisco E4200 it worked better than planned. I can stream HD video without any loss, so worth every penny.
