Can someone recommend a good USB wireless adaptor for Vista64 Ultimate

As the title says really...

I've tried two Netgear adaptors now and they are cr@p to be honest. The WG111T that I have now is almost as bad as the previous one i.e. it drops out frequently - usually when you are downloading something :mad:

The drivers for these just don't seem to be written that well for Vista64 Ultimate (or something in Vista is disagreeing with them).

Did you try the vista patch from Netgear?

I found my WN121T worked miles better after using the updated software?

You mean the latest version of software i.e. v2.1? If so then yes, first thing I downloaded.

I tryed a few today useing Vista 64.

D-Link DWA-547 Just made my mouse randomly freeze when i installed the lastest drivers.

Netgear WN311T Drivers are just laughable, hardly work at all, connection drops ever few minutes.

D-Link DWL-G520 Drivers dont even seems to support vista.

Netgear WG311T Seems to work well, drivers installed without any problem and conection seems solid.

D-Link G122 works spot in in Vista 64 for me. Set it up yesterday with no problems at all. It's a new model (Firmware 3.10 on the USB stick) and it's much more stable and seems faster than the version 1 Firmware sticks.

Thanks, I'll probably give that a go then :cool:

Where did you get the Vista 64 drivers? I can only see XP drivers on their site :confused:

Edit: Found them
