    This is the kind of product that you never want to have to think about, and that's what ASUS has delivered. This WiFi adapter simply works, first time and every time... and in fact I'd forgotten it was even there. I have a solid WiFi signal in the room where it is used so I can't comment about its ability when the signal is weaker, or in a situation in which the machine is moved around. Nonetheless, it is fast and reliable for me and was a good value.

    I got this for a desktop to make it wifi capable. For $30 this is a great value, very easy installation and the tiny size makes it almost invisible.

    I was highly impressed - by the uncomplicated and extremely fast installation and configuration of this USB Modem/Adapter. The instructions were clear and concise - whether you are a novice or hyper-geek - you will experience NO DRAMA with this product. It took me less than 5 minutes to install and configure - and I was able I bought an extra one - to keep in the house for visitors/guests who normally would have to use my computer - and now ASUS has freed me from having to surrender my laptop for the sake of hospitality. I am one happy camper!!!!

    This little device works quite well considering its size. It is amazing how it can receive wifi considering its small sized antenna. All in all it has saved my laptop which its built in wifi card has failed. Most external wifi adaptors are bigger and put to much stress on usb port which can cause usb port failure. There are adaptors which can get better reception at a far distance from source but again are much larger. So for me this is a win-win.

    Have a 10+ year old HP Pavilion Desk Top with none of the amenities e.g. wifi, bluetooth. Purchased this and the BT500 Bluetooth Adapters. After both did an auto install of the drivers, worked like a charm and without issue. Had purchased another brand, couldn't download any driver and had to return it. I m very impressed with Both of my ASUS Adapters and would highly recommend them

    Great Dual Band Wireless Adapter

    If your wifi adapter is no longer working, for only supports 2Ghz then this is a great upgrade/replacement. It works well on both the 2Ghz and 5Ghz bands, and is well priced. Since this will be in your laptop (or desktop) computer all the time, it's nano form factor won't get caught on things and damage the device or more importantly your computer. It's the same size as most wireless mouse receivers, but delivers great reception and speed.
