I have gotten the linksys cards when they are on sale for less than $10,
with rebates, and have never had a problem with them, end up selling
them to friends or giving them to family, I have 3 left over in
storage at the moment. Advance planning. My suggestion is to buy the one
you like the next time it goes on sale so you have a backup/spare the
next time you need one. Of course, that's the grandpa in me talking.
