    Solid solution for refurb tower without wifi

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Installed on a refurbished mini-tower. Installation was a breeze and it got the machine online on our home network instantly. My only knock on it is that for whatever reason, the baseline settings are limiting its performance to under 300mbps up/down on our 1gig fiber connection. Still plenty fast for anything we need, and extremely reliable so far.

    Fixed my internal WiFi issue

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My asus laptop would be connected to my at-home wifi for about 10 minuets and then would suddenly disconnect saying there was no internet access meanwhile I could be on my phone, and my mother could be in the room right next to mine on videocalls for 10 hours a day with no problems. After I established it wasn't a problem with the wifi, I bought this after trying to get it fixed. This allows me to have a second WiFi connection at all times and has done the trick for about a month now. I am so happy I saved my $1500 laptop with this virtually inexpensive item!

    excellent connectivity for such small size. nothing beats ethernet, but as far as wifi goes this is great. comes with a usb thumbdrive for the driver install which is much easier than downloading the driver with no wifi.

    Loaded latency tripled compared to integrated wifi

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This was marginally better than the internal Intel Wireless-AC 9260 160MHz that the computer came with, but not better enough for my purposes. I needed a wifi adapter for my desktop because the stock adapter wouldn't pick up my router from my room (every other device in the house can pick up the wifi from the parking lot). The biggest problem with this adapter is that while it did increase my connectivity, the loaded latency almost TRIPLED. So my download speeds were much better, but my ability to play games and participate in voice chat was just as bad (if not worse in some cases). Two stars. It was better by some metrics than the integrated wifi controller, but FAR worse by others. I will be returning it and going to the next highest price point.

    Works but could be better.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Seems to work fine, if not a bit hot. There was no included adapter for desktop use as the description states. The device was very difficult to insert into the USB port and I instead used an adapter to spare my computer's port from direct damage. I honestly thought either it wouldn't fit or I would break the port. Overall so so.
