The Belkin notebook card rebates print out as one $30 and one $12 instead of $20, $10 and $12. Hopefully the other Belkin things do the same. One less rebate to worry about.

Both my husband and I use the Belkin notebook card, so we got one for a spare. We also have the Belkin router which has performed flawlessly since Christmas, not one reset since installation.

Way to many rebates

i jumped on the netgear sale comusa had a while back and bought 3 network things. ended up doing like 11 rebates.

The rebates that went to compusa were pretty good, they came back quickly. on the other hand, none of the netgear ones have come in, even though i already have conformations.

hopefully belkin is different, good luck with your rebates;)

Which firmware is your Belkin router using?

4.03.03 (You just had to ask - took awhile for me to find that info, but at least now I know where it all is. :) )

Where is it?

I recently bought this router (again - sold the last 2) from CC for $9.99 then I'll PM to Walmart.com tomorrow and make about $20 after CC rebates.

I got the USB thing and the router - both ring up as 2 rebates (not 3).

Also got the WD 160gig hd. I dunno why no one's mentioned it (maybe I missed it in the threads) - it's a REALLY hot deal.

The keyboard deals (logitech combo and m$ standalone) seem good too. I dunno about the mouse that comes with the logitech though - looks like the crappy one I have now .

EDIT:
This is the crappy one I have:

This appears to be the combo one - it's cheaper, and doesn't say anything about the DPI

It surprises me that everyone always says good things about this belkin router. I have noticed if the router fails to find an IP from DHCP, it will not let you log into the configuration page. Signal across my 3 bedroom apartment is non-existant. I had to call Belkin for help just to set it up, and I install routers as a part time job. Rebate I sent to Belkin was rejected for no reason (from a while ago). So, I paid $60 for a horrible router IMO.

I like the bridging feature they have, though. I was considering getting another one for this purpose, but that would mean 2-3 rebates, which I hate doing.

That Belkin router runs flawlessly for me. As does the D-link 524. The D-Link needs to be flashed to ver 1.10 which just came out.
