As mentioned previously, this adapter installation will NOT run on Win98SE, WinME or Win95. Don’t try it. The installation utility tries to use Devcon.exe, which does not support these MS-Windows versions (ms kb 311272). Don’t believe what the add says, or what’s printed on the box. TrendNet support admitted that it doesn’t work with Win98SE.

The utility installer is not compatible with Win98 installer engine. So, while the product might work in their lab. under Win98, the installer doesn’t let you get there to find out. The software just won’t install. And, since the drivers are not resident on the CD you can’t even install it manually. This is why they tell you not to plug the card into the PCI slot first. I guess the drivers are buried somewhere in the code of the utility installer. The file that you download from their website (a supposed “upgrade”) is actually the same version on the CD.
Tech support is farmed out to a foreign country. These guys spoke english worse than any help desk I’ve run across. So, don’t count on ANY T.S.

This product kept causing my computer to freeze. Also, its ability to find wireless signals is unpredictable. I have the Windows 2000 operating system, which this wireless card is supposed to support. Many other users of this product have fewer problems, though. The customer support service is awful. Besides the employees having thick accents, they said that they would call me back, but they never did. This happened twice. It is probably because they did not know how to solve my problem.

Good luck getting this one to work. I tried four different drivers – the drivers included on the CD, Windows’ built-in Atheros NIC drivers, and both drivers from TRENDnet’s very own web site (yes, there are drivers for each of the two different hardware versions of this card), and none of them worked. I couldn’t open the TRENDnet utility, couldn’t adjust Windows’ wireless network settings, and couldn’t start the Wireless Zero Configuration service. It also made my computer hang on two occasions. Utter crap!
