Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great little trinket; I needed internet on my PC, had no way of being able to hardwire in and so was in need to making Wifi available to my PC, went to Best Buy to ask about how to go about doing that, and this was one of I think three products that they sold that would do what I needed it to. I believe this was the best/fastest option they had (something to do with the number after "AC" -- "AC1200"), and IIRC it was the same price as a "lesser" option, so I just went with this one. It was the best ~$40 I had spent in a while! Does exactly what it's meant to: provides Wifi to a PC that doesn't otherwise have the ability to connect to Wifi. I was using it to play online video games such as League of Legends and Warframe; no lag or DC issues that stemmed from this little magic-box that I know of! Best of all, IIRC, it's basically "plug-and-play", so you can just stick it into your PC's USB port, run the wizard that opens right up for you, and wait the 15 seconds it takes to "set up" and you're good to game! Definitely recommend this little thing. I'm hardwired in now, permanently, but this thing is so little and such a lifesaver that I've just left it in the port so I don't end up losing it, should I need it again someday!

Dual band connectivity for standard and 5G WiFi networks this little thing is soooo small so you barely notice it's even there and there is no disc or software needed for this to work, Windows 10 automatically installed the drivers for this device and the interface/process on connecting to a wifi network is identical to a Windows computer that has a wifi card built in to it.

this is a great usb adapter to have as a backup. it doesn't take a lot of space, the speed is faster than most small usb wifi. it's easy to install

Works well and as recommended Just plug in. Easy .

Geek Squad member recommended this after my laptop was having issues connecting to wi-fi and it worked incredibly well.

Small in size, big on delivery. I replace a much bigger, failing dongle. This one is almost invisible and has performed 100% more than 30 feet from the wifi modem. It was recommended by a Geek who said he used it personally and it was not the highest-priced model. Great recommendation by a pro.

Ive been able to use wifi on my desktop now without having to buy an expensive wifi card. I enjoy the lack of yet another cord strung over my room.

We used this with my sons gaming computer and it works great. His computer is not lagging at all. It was easy to set up and go. And the price was decent

Great price and size for my older laptop that didn’t have access to my 5ghz network. Easy to install. Working within minutes.

Plug and play. Surprisingly good range. Worked from through my living room and kitchen and into my garage.

What a fantastic purchase! It worked instantly and smoothly. No issues.

Absolutely user friendly to setup. This product ships with a small usb device containing installation drivers. The low profile is great. Other manufacturers usb wifi's extend out from laptop usb port and must be removed when traveling to prevent inadvertent damage.

The wifi card on my laptop finally bit the dust and I immediately went to best buy and found this ASUS USB wifi adapter. The driver install was simple and had me back up and running ready to play within an hour. Still take it with me every time I travel with my laptop.

My daughters HP laptop could never get the network speeds that our other devices could; not even when sitting 3 feet from the router. After some investigation I discovered her laptop was only using the 2.4GHz channels and totally ignoring the 5GHz channels. That seemed a little odd given her laptop is roughly the same age as mine and my laptop's built in WiFi works on both channels. After doing some research I chose this little USB adapter as a way to get her both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz access. All we had to do was pull down the drivers before we plugged it in, install them and then insert the adapter. We disabled her built in WiFi and she was immediately seeing MUCH faster speeds. We can now play online together and she sees no lag anymore. Since she does not use USB devices much the loss of one of her few USB ports is not a big concern. If you are severely limited in your USB ports but really want to have full spectrum use of your WiFi, you should still consider this little adapter. It is low profile and after several months has shown itself to be quite reliable. The only complaint I have is that the drivers were not provided on a mini CD in the package. As long as you have some Internet access you can pull the drivers down on your own. However if you have no INet access on the computer you plan to use the adapter on, you will need to find a way to get the drivers before the adapter will function for you. It seems that a few cents more in materials to include a mini CD would have been a nicer option by the manufacturer. Beyond this, you will find the adapter is a solid work horse at a nice price.

I never knew this USB Wi-Fi adapter existed until someone told me about it. If your computer is not Wi-Fi capable, then this is for you. Very simple instructions that comes with a cd for quick installation. I just followed the easy instructions for installation and connected to my existing Wi-Fi router remotely. Took less than 10 minutes for a newbie like me...from reading instructions to connecting to the Wi-Fi remotely. Great buy!

My three sons all built their own desktop PC's and rather than put in a WIFI card I got them each a ASUS USB Network Adaptor. It is easy to use and no installation necessary. It picked up the WIFI right away and also streams very fast speeds as well. Cheap and great product.

Easy install. Extended the life of an old laptop. Now i can stream with 5G

Plug and play, easy to use and takes up minimal space. Asus usb network adapter works fine and has solved my Wi-Fi concerns. I would highly recommend this product to those who need a Wi-Fi adapter.

The size of this little dongle is incredible and the performance works well thankfully. One thing that bothers me is the black part of the head of the unit is a bit loose and feels like it could break off. I hope this thing lasts me longer then my last no name wireless dongle. So far so good but just a bit worried about the physical construction.

Small size but it packs technology. The price was great espevially for a dual band unit. Easy to install
