Gets good signal and easy to install drivers. If you don’t have a disc drive to install the mini disc then check YouTube on your phone if you don’t know how. Good for computers without a wireless network card

It works great. It was easy to install and set up. There's three walls between the device and the router.

Great little Adapter to connect your old laptop to the new 5G Routers that Spectrum is placing now. Thought we would have to downgrade the router or upgrade the laptops, but this item has been working great. Easy to set up and get working.

This is a very easy fix for connecting wi-fi without having to have to buy and install networking adapters. Works as well as the internal adapter, a easy fix and a lot cheaper fix under $30.00.

I bought a high-end VR ready computer but needed to connect it with Wifi because my office is some distance from our internet modem. My new computer had an ASUS motherboard so I thought an ASUS wifi adapter would be the most compatible with it. I found this ASUS USB wifi adapter and I liked how small and unobtrusive it was. I installed the driver first as instructed then plugged in the adapter. It was immediately recognized by Windows 10 and I was back on the grid in just a couple of minutes!

The connection was great if the modem/router were on the same level as the adapter. However the connection is stable but sometimes would spike up because we are on the second floor of the house and the router was on the first floor. It’s pretty useful though for my desktop. I can play games on it, watching stream/movies/videos. It’s a great piece of equipment nonetheless. Great price for a good adapter.

I have an HP laptop that had a damaged WiFi card so I had no wireless capabilities. I needed somethings inexpensive and easy to use while I waited to repair the internal WiFi card. This asus usb wireless adapter was a perfect fit. It’s small and powerful at a very reasonable cost. Works so well that I have no need to replace the expensive internal card in my laptopS

I was slightly concerned about the ability to pick up signal through a wall, but it did just fine. I've had this device for nearly a month and haven't had a single issue with it. Installing it was slightly difficult because my PC doesn't have a CD drive, but I downloaded the software on my phone from their website and then downloaded it onto my PC via USB. Besides that, great product and I love how small it is. No more giant antennas on the back of my PC.

The adapter is smaller enough to be plugged in at all time, and the performance is reliable. So far I have no signal drop.

I had a desktop with a really cheap / crappy WiFi (I’ll spare the brand) and picked up the ASUS AS1200 and was super happy that my wifi connection was finally consistent. I was also upset that i didn’t replace it 2 years ago, but that’s an internal story.
Inexpensive, incredibly small, and very capable wifi replacement.

Simple set up on a laptop w/Win 7 - was getting the error message to use an ethernet connection even though I had been using wi fi. Seems the mother board dropped the drivers for the built in wi fi adapter so I bought this external one.
Don't have a CD drive so I down loaded the drivers from
https://www.asus.com/us/Networking-IoT-Servers/Adapters/All-series/USB-AC53-Nano/HelpDesk_Download/ to a USB stick and followed the directions for installing them. All went as smooth as butter - a couple of minutes later after finding my wi fi device I was back online.

Worked great to reinstall W10 on a old PC that didn't have a Wi-Fi adapter. Didn't need to install any software for the W10 install to recognize it and use it to connect to my Wi-Fi.

My wifes wifi adapter in her laptop died so she couldn't do everything she needs to do. New laptop wasn't a option. This fixed her right up. Faster then the internal ever was. Wifi router is at one end of house,office at the other end. No buffering or lag.
