    this wireless adapter dose not have windows 10 drivers so you will be stuck with less then 35% of what it can do

    i wanted a product which would give me 50-75 feet good coverage, but the strength is very low (even though the original download speed of the router is 50 Mbps).

      Hi, James,

      We can stabilize the connection coming from the adapter by updating the driver, or even use another USB port on the computer. We can have our Escalation Engineers check this out further and aid in experiencing the best out of this device. With the link to this review and your contact details, please send an email at [email protected].

      Let's take it from there.

      Hi, Arf808,

      Thank you for sharing your experience. Linksys wireless adapters normally do not require extra configuration to achieve optimum wireless reception as it is a plug and play device. However, there are factors to be considered to maximize its connectivity. It could be caused by interference in your area like thick walls or ceilings. You may also try plugging the adapter to other computers and check if you will experience the same setback.

      It would be best if the router is within the line of sight of the computer. This will ensure a stable wireless connection between the devices. We also suggest updating the driver for the adapter to improve its functionality. Email us at [email protected] so we can assist. Include your contact details, location, and the link to this review.

      Hi,

      As long as a compatible computer is used and the driver is correctly installed, your WUSB6300 should perform as expected. However, we'd like to look into the adapter further as the loud humming noise is unnecessary. Please email the link to this post and your contact information at [email protected] and our Escalation Engineers will take care of you from there.

    This USB WiFi adapter exceeded my expectations with fast reliable connection. I felt like I was plugged it. Now after about 4 months it's not working. The blame could be to Microsoft with these forced windows 10 upgrades and updates but either way this adapter no longer works.

      Hi MRSTEWART,

      If the driver of your WUSB6300 Adapter is already updated, it's possible that there are some interferences causing the signal to drop. We'd be glad to have one of our Escalation Engineers take a closer at your network setup to ensure that your adapter is working at its best. Please shoot us an email at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this post.
