Customers are positive about the easy installation, strong signal strength, and improved performance of the Wireless N900 Dual-Band PCI Express Adapter. They appreciate how it has enhanced their wireless experience, making it easier to connect to their networks from various locations within their homes. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding driver issues, particularly with Windows 10, resulting in occasional signal loss or connection problems.
I was having trouble with getting good signal on a PC that's 1 floor up from our access point. This card was definitely an improvement on signal strength. The only downside was that TP Link doesn't have a Windows 10 driver yet and with the default Microsoft driver, the card would lose signal every 15 minutes or so. Installing the Qualcomm driver worked fine, though it took some googling to find it.

I wanted to get a faster wireless card and the reviews on this card looked good. The first problem I had during installation is that the install software said that the adapter was not found. Googling showed that others had problems too. I had to make a change in my BIOS settings so the software could find the hardware. Then the driver that was included on the included CD was dated from 2006. There is no driver specifically for Windows 10 but I did find one online for Windows 8 and that runs in 10 just fine. Pleased with the performance improvement.

I bought this after my N600 USB stick died. It was easy to install and so far works great through three walls and about 75 feet from my gateway.
