This is absolutely perfect if you need to connect a second computer to wifi. For whatever reason my second desktop was not picking up the router. Plugged this bad boy in and whala...internet

I have tried several different WiFi links over the years. Some were USB, and some were internal plug-in cards. This device gives the best WiFi connection of them all. It is better on 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz, including AC.

Adrian installed our fridge as well as this washer and dryer, and both times he has been cordial, professional, and capable. We very much appreciate Best Buy’s service.

This adapter is great and transmits data quickly to ensure a fast connection. The products has its hiccups where you may have to unplug and plug the adapter in its initial place, however, its quality and work is overall satisfactory.

Average product - failed after 15 months.

This worked fine when it worked. It stopped working entirely after 15 months. It would occasionally drop the signal and need to be reconnected. I didn’t pay full price for it originally, so I guess I got some value for the amount of time it was in use.
Best Buy hasn’t been able to honor the valid extended warranty I bought because protocol wasn’t in place during covid-19 circumstances. I had to buy a whole new adapter, which was irritating. I’ve been told they will make it right once stores and personnel are fully back in action.

Hi ChiGuy,
This is certainly not the kind of experience we'd like you to have with our wireless adapter. The unit had gone through rigorous testing for long lasting use than described. Email us at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review so we can better sort this out for you.
We'll wait for your updates.
Regards,
Carl Linksys Support

Didn’t get a year out of it...

December of 2018 I had a custom built PC built for me only to forget to have the guy who built it install a wifi adapter in it. No Biggy, I could just buy one of these, so I did. It worked great at first but then it would cut out at random point. Thankfully not in the middle of a game. It eventually stopped doing that but the other day it stopped working and now a blinking yellow light flashes on it. I didn’t even get a whole year of use out of it.

This adapter was suppose to help with cutting back on the interruptions I was getting when I used my VCR to see movies - it helped, but it did not stop the interruptions from occurring.

The only downfall I have is the design. This is my 3rd adapter because I have cats that rub against it and will ultimately break it. I was able to find an adapter wire so it does not stick out and have not had any problems since.

After upgrading my router my wife's laptop's wifi didn't see the 5ghz connection. I had this as a spare for wireless streaming to my Raspberry Pi, but never needed. I hooked up to my wife's laptop and less then a minute 5ghz connection. No drops yet!

This Linksys dual band wireless ac adapter has doubled the speed at least over my old dual band wireless n adapter from pre 2010 era. You do need a wireless ac router to experience the wireless speed difference. Also easy to install.comes with disc.
