Very Fast and Easy to Setup
Posted .Pros mentioned:Set up, SignalSo far after a little bit of time using this wireless adapter it seems the be the best one I have found to date. Its super easy and quick to setup (drivers found on website for those without DVD drive) and provides a secure, very fast connection. The magnetic stand that come with is very useful and the magnet is strong so it wont move around. Nighthawk is some of the best products I've seen and definitely recommend to everyone.

Great find
|Posted .Pros mentioned:SignalI’d read several reviews prior to my purchase, I was so confused on what to get. So I decided to go in-store to speak with an associate. He’d suggested this item. Turns out it was a great buy! My router is downstairs. If I had to guess how far, I’d guess I’d say 20ft away. The signal is always really strong, videos don’t lag. I’ve had it for about 6 months.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:ConnectionI have a symmetrical 100MBPS FIOS connection from Verizon. I swapped the Nighthawk with my PCI network adapter and doubled my download. No other settings changed and tests completed back to back (enable one device, then the other). I hope it holds up over time, but so far, the device meets my expectations to make full use of my connection. Note: I have the adapter in its magnetic cradle on a shelf on my computer desk.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionIf i have ZERO access to a WiFi or any kind of internet service can i use this instead of paying a cable company for WiFi?
Asked by Chris.
- A:Answer This device will constantly scan and update for strongest WIFI signal in your location. The signals are free. Most signals are secured and In order to connect with any of the signals you must provide a User ID and Password. IF you're extremely lucky someone ( a neighbor) may be sending an unsecured signal. But this is highly unusual. NOTE: Unlike a cell phone which has a built in mobile device that allows a temporary connection to many retail or commercial stores who provide free access when you visit their stores. New computers, laptops, and tablets today have wireless WIFI built into it ... This "Nighthawk Ac1900 Wifi Usb Adapter" enables older computer units to eliminate cables and allows them wireless access to the internet.
