    I got this item because my computer Wi-Fi was not working properly , instead of fixing my laptop which can be very expensive , I used this wireless adaptor and it works great , very small too so you can just plug it into the usb and leave it , so far works great

    Quick, simple, effective solution for my needs. I used one of these to add a second WiFi connection to a laptop for creating a dedicated connection to a WiFi device. Plugged it in, and it just worked right away.

    Recently built a new desktop and realized my old desktop MB didn't have onboard wifi. Didn't want to dedicate another wired connection for the older pc so this adapter was perfect. Was not concerned about any potential range issues due to the nano form factor since the pc in question is only a few feet away from my router.

    Had an internal NIC fail, and this was a good replacement while I needed it. I've since lost it, so who knows what purpose it serves now. Hopefully it doesn't aspire to be a LEGO.

    It works and was a breeze to install on my Windows 7 Pro pc. Range is not great, but that's to be expected given the size, but the performance and stability have been good so far.

    Let me start by saying that you will NOT get your full ISP bandwidth using a wireless adapter. That said, I get about 70-80% on a constant basis. This was plug and play with Windows 10 (fully updated). If you are relocating your PC and don't have time to run a cable, this should do the trick.

    Laptop network card wasn't working and figured rather than taking my laptop apart and replacing it, I would try this. I haven't run speed tests on it, but I feel it works good and think I made a good choice.

    This works well. My wife had an older laptop that kept dropping the wifi signal because of the bluetooth being so old and I bought a new router. This fixed the problem and it works well.
