A: Hi, I have this adapter and you do not need a cable. It comes with a dvd that you load into your computer. After that, you just plug the adapter into your computer and you will connect to your router without any need of wires. Hope this helps!
A: My Internet box is about 35 40 feet away and a get a perfect signal
A: I'm not sure about MU-MIMO, but I bought this to be able to use 5ghz wifi and get off the cluttered 2.4ghz band. Making this switch, I went from about 50mbps to about 94mbps on average, on a 100mbps service.
Q: does this work with Windows vista?
A: Hi! Regarding your query, the Linksys WUSB6100M will not work with Windows Vista. It is only compatible with computers running on Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
A: Yes it will. USB 3.0 is completely backwards compatible with USB 2.0.
Q: Can you use this on a smart tv so it can pick up the houses internet?
A: No, mcsmith. This adapter will only work with computers running on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10.
A: Yes you can as long as you have an open and functional USB port.
A: It should connect to your router. Just make sure you know the password to connect to the router. If you do not have a password protected wireless network, I suggest you do. Otherwise anyone can connect to your router and that can reduce your internet speeds and make your pc and devices vulnerable to danger.
