Wow, good stuff. I wish I were around a CompUSA since I've been looking for a WGR614 for a reasonable point. I don't need it for the speed, I just want the WPA.

Added links to all rebate forms. A number of differences existed between the weekly advertisement and the online cost, and are thus reflected above.

Anyone have experience with the netgear USB wireless adapter? How does it compare to the syntax one from e-cost?

It certainly should. However, be aware that the connection will only be viable at 802.11b rates.

The WG311T utilizes a PCI interface, while the WG511T uses a PCMCIA interface.

The WG311T would be the choice for a desktop. The WG511T would be better suited for a notebook, or a PCI card that accepts a wireless PCMCIA card (like this one).

Should also mention if one places most routers near a desktop, a wireless PCI is not required, as most wireless routers offer a built-in four port 10/100 switch. Of course, for desktops in alternate locations, a wireless PCI card would be a viable solution.
