I use it. No problems. I even have one at home so I get our router way at the other end of the house, in the office.
Howdy.
I wanted to give an update on our attempts to set up a Alfa R36 router with our Alfa WiFi adapter. It took a little doing and getting help from the seller but it is done. Now we want to set up security on the new network to prevent others from logging onto it. The set up gives a number of security choices. The 2 we think that might fit are WEP or WPA. Any recommendations as to which one?
Thanks,
Jack and Liz Pearce
P.S. I should have taken more networking classes in college.

We have our Alfa R36 router sucessfully working with our Alfa WiFi adapter. Our network is O.K. and we set up it's security as Ned suggested. Jack's laptop(XP) and my laptop(Win 7) can log onto our network and get onto the Internet. The next thing I did was to install our wireless printer onto our network. Now for the fun....... Jack's computer sends a print command to this printer and it prints. My computer sends a print command to this printer. The Print dialog box is displayed, the printer name is highlighted but the status reads offline. YET, we can see that the printer is powered up. And the printer does work with Jack's laptop. How can I force my laptop to see the printer as being online? Help!

Did it come with an installation CD? You need to load the drivers for it to work. If not, go here to download the drivers.
