"D-Link Wireless-G USB 2.0 device. This combined with my laptop's wireless ability lets me quickly take any data I want off someone's machine via an ad-hoc wireless network."
D-Link makes the best wireless hardware. I have a D-link wireless router and it's very reliable.
From all my experiences, D-Link is horrible. Not the worst, but damn close.
I wouldn't say horrible, but Linksys does blow it out of the water. When I was testing out wireless routers (and before I just said screw the whole thing), I found the D-Link DGL-4300 to be slower than the Linksys Wireless G, despite being rated for twice the speed. I did in the end, end up selling both, but still. Reliability wise they were about even though.
