(More customer reviews)PROS : It doesn't hurt small furry animals.CONS: It wont do 802.11n , the software sucks, doesn't show up in the airport icon , needs pci software even to wo9rk in G mode which is the only mode it will work in. It can't find the 2.4ghz N network or the 5 ghz N , the support staff arrogant and abusive. Dont even bother writing them it's a waste of time.
With my old Aria Extreme G card it worked terrifically, it showed up in the airport icon and ran teriific, unfortunately this is a 180% Not only the Aria Extreme N hard to connect, it does not show up in the airport icon, it has to use a PCI Card Utility to find the network and speeds average no better than a $14 G card . When my 802.11n Airport Extreme base is set on any single N channel it can't find the base at all so I wrote Sonnet and this is what came back.
We would be more than happy to advise you if you could be so kind as to write us a civil note.
Sincerely,
Robert

For those in wonder my note said "Help , it's not working " ! Nothing like hiring crazy people with emotional issues to take out on customers . How much more lucky can I be today now I've got this fake Sonnet N card ? I have to deal with a nut job Sheesh ! . Don't buy this card folks , the hassle in dealing isn't worth the baby sitting fee. Update: After a bunch of sleuthing I discovered the reason that the card is not recognized in Tiger, there is no support for N , not till the OSX 10.5.7 . If you run OSX Tiger forget it. Oh, and if you have other computers on your network you will lose access. Not worth it at all.
