Good Card. Careful during installation (2010-07-07) : 4/5
This card is worth the money. However, make sure you install the drivers for the NIC card first as it will lock up your PC on bootup without doing this first. It clearly says this in the installation documentation though, but...who reads that.
I had no issues with the RJ45 not snapping into place as another review stated. It has been working fine for weeks now on my parents computer.
Great network card for the price! (2010-06-19) : 5/5
I have a motherboard with built in network adaptor which went bad and I spent numerous hours trying to get it fixed. Finally fed up with all the hours spent and not getting anywhere, I resolved to buy this card since I have one expansion slot available. After I un-installed the original network software and drivers, then installed the software came with the D-link network card. Turned off the computer and unplugged the power supply first before inserting the D-link card into the expansion slot then reboot.
Windows XP automatically sensed the new hardware and installed the driver automatically. Everything was done in less than 10 minutes and my network and internet was up and running.
This network card works as well as others which cost many times more. It's a great deal for the money!
An excellent product... (2010-06-12) : 5/5
This D-Link network card was easy to install and works great. Haven't had any issues with this network card, and it is less expensive than most other cards available. Amazon also had the best price on this item, as I have looked around before purchasing.
DFE-530TX+ is not compatible with Windows 7 (2010-06-10) : 2/5
I bought the DFE-530TX+ last year to use with Windows XP and it worked fine.
I have since switched to Windows 7 and even though the adapter is listed on the Microsoft Compatibility web page as being compatible I have found out that it really is not. Do a search on this adapter, or any d-link adapter, and you will find that there is a lot of trouble getting them to work with Windows 7.
Time to buy a different card.
*Edit: My DFE-530TX+ is rev E1. Can someone let me know what revision card they have received recently from amazon?
Ethernet adapter (2010-03-17) : 5/5
Bought this because I was having trouble with my internet connection and suspected it was ethernet adapter. The price for this was so low that even though it turned out that my problem was not the old adapter I removed I left the new one installed and it is performing well.
