Little Dongle Doing Dandy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My ten year old Lenovo ThinkPad is still going strong with no issues, then the internal network adapter suddenly failed. I took it to Best Buy for a Geek to troubleshoot. He did a wifi settings reset and said if that didn't correct the problem, I should try using a USB network adapter. The reset didn't help. I purchased the ASUS Dual Band AC1200 and the wifi signal is again operating as normal. Easy install, just plug in and turn on wifi. Desk space is at a premium for me, and this little dongle takes up no space.

Surpising Performance for the Size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this tiny WIFI adapater to transmit to an extender across the same room and it actually reached my router across the house. Of course, the speed was higher because I eliminated the extra hop through the extender. And, the signal was solid. Count me impressed!

Small factor but huge performance!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this adaptor because I bought a new computer and it didn’t have built in wireless LAN card. I wanted something small, yet performs like a beast and this was the perfect solution. I’m happy with my choice and would recommend this product to anyone in need.

Mind blowing performance

Better than I was expecting
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My computer was hard wired prior to purchasing this Network Adapter. It wont have the speed using it as opposed to direct Internet connection, but I was surprised by how well it does work. If you're just using your computer for general purposes, this will be all that you'll need.

Wifi for pc.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a usb driven wifi connection in a room without lan. Seems to work well and connected easily to home network.
I would recommend this to a friend works but loses signal and need to reboot
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works but not continuously. When it loses the wifi signal when I set the computer down or the screen blacks out I have to reboot the computer to get the wifi signal to reconnect. I end up having to do that around 5 times a day. However it is better than buying a new computer when this one is only 2 1/2 years old.

- Pros mentioned:Speed
Plug and play, runs fast and hot.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plug in, start huffing! Got this to create a Hotspot for a local network without buying a router. It works very well, is fast, just the small size causes it to get quite warm if a lot of data is being transferred. Definitely running this only in a cold environment, and only for short times under full load. Built in Laptop WiFi works for everything else just fine. Little product improvement though, a possible connection for an external WiFi antenna, as the reach is limited (but sufficient for my tasks)

Small but mighty!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I built my desktop PC, I had no idea I'd ever need WiFi to get internet service. The Best Buy associate suggested this device and I was thrilled with how easy it was to set up; and it is more than equal to the high speeds we are getting.
