 Great when it works, but unfortunately very unreliableNov 06, 2009
It works swell until it starts automatically disabling itself. I suspect it simply overheats when this happens, although unplugging it from one USB port and plugging it into another gets it going again. If you view the Netgear forums topic "Please Join here for WG111/WG111T/WG111U issues", you'll see that this is a design flaw that shows up for many users.
Don't bother getting this.
Sub standard USB 2.0 adapterAug 01, 2009
The item which I ordered arrived on time. I followed all the procedures (like downloading and installing the drivers) before I inserted the USB2.0 adapter to my computer. It didn't work straightaway (unlike my original NETGEAR WG111 USB 2.0 adapter - Made in Canada).
After some effort it worked but then everytime you reboot it's a nightmare with this USB2.0 adapter. It is not consistent and at times it will not work at all (If I plug my other USB adapter it works straight away). I am so frustrated.. now I think that I should have brought it from Best buy rather than from this seller.
One thing which I noticed is that the "bar code and the serial number" on this adapter is scratched so that I cannot read it (is this a illegally made?). Also this piece is made in China (known for its quality!!! - should have checked with the seller about the make before I ordered). Whereas my original USB 2.0 adapter was made in Canada.
Will not recommend this seller to anyone who is serious about buying quality products online.
Garbage..Jun 21, 2009
This item worked well for the first three days and then quickly turned to garbage. Started dropping the signal on about the fourth day and just kept getting worse. After a week I went back to a hard wired system, I dont recommend this product and will never purchase again..
Yes, this is a complete piece of junk.May 27, 2009
I've had many Netgear products over the years, and in general I've been very happy with them. This WG111T is a disgraceful piece of junk though, overheating and frequently losing connections.
 Netgear WG111T Wireless USB 2.0 AdapterApr 28, 2009
The Netgear WG111T was easy to set up and provided 54 Mbps connectivity, using a Verizon FIOS Router. I would recommend this device for a quick and easy installation wireless device.
