    This product mostly fixed my connectivity issues. I spuratically will lose connection, but overall a great fix over a replacement wireless driver.

    This works great! I use it to steal my neighbors Wi-Fi and it really picks it up from a far distance.

    Plugged it in and I was up and going via Comcast broadband. Easy set up, Win10 loaded driver and it has not dropped the signal so far. Set up on same floor, about 30 feet from modem router.

    It actually works faster than the internal Wifi that had failed. Geek Squad suggested that I buy this rather than wait two weeks for ASUS to replace the old one. They were correct in directing me to buy this. Thanks!

    Plug and play, just what I was looking for. Was brining an old HP laptop back to life with Linux, only 2.4 onboard wifi so this did the trick and reliably.

    Bought this to fix the horrible Killer wifi chip on gf's XPS13, it kept dropping wifi and was difficult to get back online. Install the drivers first from online, either w/ existing wifi or another computer via usb, then simply plug it into a USB port and it will recognize. Next you need to disable the old wifi chip and then it'll connect through this. Small enough to never unplug. Works well, will still sometimes drop connection, but much better now.

    I was worried when I bought a laptop that had no wifi connectivity. So I bought this gadget. You plug it into the back of the computer and, like magic, you are connected to your wifi. It is a great idea.

    My son needed this to connect his desktop to the internet. He had larger ones and due to the positioning of the CPU he would break them. This works just as well and it too small for him to knock into.
