This wireless adapter did work when first installed, but required repeated resets because it lost communication with my wireless router. I exhausted the options from the Netgear support team, finally returning this adapter. Apparently I was asking the adapter to communicate further than it was able.

I bought this device to enable wifi from my AV receiver. After connection to my router I found that the signal was poor so I bought a WN300RP extender. I can extend the network with the extender and get internet access from laptops and android phones. I can't however get access via the WNCE2001.

This is a great device for streaming video, but can drop your connection when your data stream is idle while using a computer or gaming platform.

Easy to install; Streams video like a champ; Had it set up in 10-15 minutes

Slightly long connectivity period once powered on; Drops connection when data is not consistently streaming

I bought this to replace three year old powerline adapters. It has a wired ethernet connection to my You View box and a wireless connection to my BT homehub. It works perfectly and is much faster than the old powerline adapters. It's like having a wireless You View box.

Purchased it to replace an aging Dlink print server. Is connecting my Brother wireless printer to the network with no problems. The printer was "blowing off" at least once a week prior to this. My son set it up.

Needed a hardwired connection for my music streamer and there are no cables in my living room. Installed this instead around 6 months ago and never had any issues. Works as expected. Install and forget.

Recently we have published a review of ASUS EA-N66 wireless network adapter that allows connecting the devices with only wired interface to wireless networks. Today we would like our readers to get familiar with another inexpensive wireless network adapter of 802.11n standard – NETGEAR WNCE3001.

The wired port is only 100Mbps; The hidden command line access via telnet without any password; Lack of necessity to put in the login and password to access the device web-interface

The WNCE3001 wireless adapter is a glossy black wedge shape and quite large when compared to a normal WiFi dongle.

Easy setup; Effective performance; Flexible power options

Quite large; especially with stand; Connections are on the base; 10/100 Ethernet Port might prove limiting
