I had previously bought a more expensive wifi dongle for my Pi, but it couldn't play back 1080p video without heaps of stutter. This one streams video from my home server without a hiccup. I was a little worried at first that the small size of the device would mean a short range - I was so wrong. Very, very happy customer :-)

Didn't work straightaway for me, but only because I was trying to be too clever. DON'T follow the official user guide for the Pi. Need to remember (a) use the latest Debian release, eg by buying a SD card from this vendor, which comes with the dongle pre-installed, (b) the device is hot-pluggable, so get the Raspberry desktop up and running then plug it in. Use WiFi Config to choose a network and give the password. After that it's fit-and-forget.

Plugins into the Raspberry Pi and is easily configured for wireless without needing to install any extra software. Works brilliantly. Included CD has simple software for using it with Windows OS too.

I had an initial problem, but it was not the WiFi Adapter's fault. My Apple AirPort Extreme's WiFi had crashed, but was still broadcasting. Rebooting latter enabled the WiFi Adapter to connect. I think this WiFi Adapter is good value.
