That one from amazon expires today, I dont think its a good idea to use it. Just goto officedepot.com and find the rebates there. The rebate image links the guy posted was only for 1 rebate and the front of the other. For the BACK goto officedepot.com and click rebate center, or try this link:Originally posted by: sinucus
I saw the links for the rebates but I don't understand the second one. sinucus

Too bad the 1st poster doesn't update his post with links
For the PCI/USB rebates it looks like only 1 $10 rebate from those 2 rebate forms applies to each one, but check out the OD ad and see.Originally posted by: GeminiZi
Can someone please reply ASAP... I'm trying to get on this deal. Been looking for a wireless router but no one has really confirm that Linksys WRT54G is an awesome router. I was thinking about getting a PCI adapter. Should I also get the Linksys WMP54G PCI adapter or the WUSB54G USB? I heard bad reviews about WUSB54G, that it doesn't support WPA. I need a PCI adapter recommendation. Thanks guys.
Will the rebates also apply to the PCI adapter since it does not list it?
If you want a good PCI or USB adapter (when I say good I mean the range/power of the card), I would skip linksys, they are ok, but the good ones are stuff like orinoco gold, or there's a couple with 200mw power. You can look around and find lists and reviews. You could even try googling terms like: WUSB54G review
If your concern is not for the range of the card but only if it supports WPA, then just about any card will work. You do know that any wireless equipment you buy is not going to be very secure though right? If you do online transactions that transmit your credit card, dont use wireless to do that unless you keep a careful eye on your bill. There's things you can do to secure your connection somewhat (dont broadcast SSID, change from default, only accept connections with certain MACs, etc), but ALL of them have problems and a determined hacker can burn through your encryption by watching the patterns in a couple hundred megabytes in transfers. I dont know the details you can google them, but I do know that its not totally secure. (Note: For clarity I edited the quotes from you guys)
