The only bridge that works for me 
I’ve tried a few other competing product from both D-link and Linksys and this is the only model that hasn’t given me a single problem. I have 3 in my house connected to DVR’s and game systems…and they have never once needed to be rebooted or reconfigured since. If all you need is “wireless B” access speeds, this is the unit to get. Too bad the same can’t be said for D-link’s “G” bridge or their “gaming” adapter. Both needed frequent reboots and “babysitting” to work properly (at least for me).
Works like it should
I recently gave our old i-mac 350 desktop using OS X Jaguar to our 8 year old daughter. It had been hardwired to a D-Link wireless router but now was going to have to go wireless itself. The computer has no slot for a wireless pci card and the OS won’t recognize the USB port as a source for a network device so we needed a wireless-to-ethernet bridge. I bought this one because we were already using D-Link and figured this would lessen the probability of any compatibility issues. Another factor was that it was one of the cheapest in price. I got it home, plugged in the power source, plugged it into the computer and we were online. It’s been a month and has been working flawlessly.
D-Link DWL-810+ Ethernet to Wireless Bridge, 802.11b, 22Mbps
I admit that this isn’t an Xbox exclusive, but it’s too cool to leave out of any console story. D-Link saw the potential for networking devices aimed at consoles and got to work with the quickness. The DWL-810 is a very small, very clever device that allows you to network your Xbox (or other console) with ease. However, it doesn’t do all the work by itself. Basically, you need to have a wireless network in place already. The DWL-810 just attaches to the back of the console and acts as a little access point for the console. It’s also extremely easy to set up. As a bonus, you can use it between two Xboxes without a network connection for simple head-to-head play. It’s not cheap, but if you’ve ever used a wireless system then you know it’s worth the investment
Worked great on first try… 5 minute setup 
I dont know why so many people are having problems with this adapter. It worked like a charm on the first try. I am currently using my playstatin online and it works like a charm. i also have a wirelss network with all D-Link components installed in my house so this could have possibly facilitated my installation. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to connect their ps2 online wirelessly. I couldnt really justify spending the extra $20 something dollars on the wireless g bridge because online games on the ps2 do not really take up too much bandwith. I am satisfied with this purchase and am going to attempt to hookup the playstation directly to my router to see if their is a speed difference sometime in the near future. I will keep you informed…
Worked Like a Dream
It was kind of hazy at first but when I figure out to change the subnet it worked as expected. I hooked it up to my PS2 and was gaming in minutes. I’ve even used it for my MP3 music network.
My only problem( And the reason I didn’t give it the 5th star) is the problems I had with the range in my house. I’ve got an old house with lots of walls between my wireless router and where I wanted my access point to go. I’m using a Trendnet TEW-311BRP wireless router. When I put the access point in the basement I could not get a reliable signal. I’ve had other wireless devices( ie a laptop) down there and they work fine. To make the 810+ work I needed to buy a booster antenna. It was $20. But still cheaper then switching to G or spending $60 on an range extended( Which I did but returned)
