Can't find $5-off coupon code at f.wallet. Any hints please, once I get to the site?

Sorry for the empty previous message.

spokes - go to FW hot deals, and type in 'amazon coupon' in the search field. There is an Amazon code thread with two active coupons.

It's now down to $37.95 (less $5 coupon, less $20 rebate = $12.95). Be careful, though -- Amazon is offering this product through Office Depot, and Office Depot does not qualify for the rebate.

Yes the rebate is good for amazon/officedepot/techdepot sales.

And note that techdepot has it for 37.5 less 20 rebate. Shipped free: Final price is 17.5

Only 16 in this time round. Therefore hurry up.

does this have a better reception than the US robotic 2410? I have the Dlink 711 router.

Just an interesting tidbit, these cards may not work with linux because d-link has been moving these to an atmel chipset since april 2002. Wish I knew a way to check how long they've had these cards in stock. More weirdness. The photo at amazon.com appears to be the old model, but the rebate form shows a picture of the new model. So hopefully if I get the new model from amazon, I will be able to dispute it because the picture on the site does not reflect what is actually sent. I hope anyway. Well I don't think the deal is really any good anymore, since I can't find any $5 off coupons that work, free shipping might, but none of the $5 coupons work because the item isn't really sold by amazon.

Computers4sure has it for $35. Cheapest shipping was $2.50. No tax for me in Washington State, unlike Amazon.

http://cache.computers4sure.com/comassets/MfgCoupons/3213.pdf Here is a better looking rebate image than the low-res one at Amazon.

Rebate ends on 1-31, so order today or tomorrow. Computers4sure has a pretty good printable sales receipt, in case they don't ship a decent one.

Use Ebates for 3% and save another $1.

There is some debate whether this is actually in-stock or not. The rebate doesn't have any specific limit on how long you can wait to mail in rebate, so this should not be a problem. Just print your receipt at the final purchase screen.

Is this 128 bit WEP? Also, I read in some reviews that it might have trouble finding the SSID? Like if you take your lappy to some place like StarBucks. Can anyone verify this?

I think it is OOS now. I have read countless user reviews today and some people trash this device. But lots of other people say it works just fine. So some of the negative reviews can probably be attributed to not using the latest drivers and other stuff like this. For $15 AR, I figure it probably isn't too bad.
