I could not get this to sync with my brand new computer. I'm rather computer literate for a layman. If a software or accessory doesn't work it's never been because of user error. Maybe the one I got was simply defective. I ended up taking it back and using an ethernet cable.

Hi Keeen,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the Linksys WUSB6300 AC Dual Band adapter. Though the wireless adapter is an 802.11ac compliant, it still backwards compatible with other wireless connection standards. The speed and connection still depend on the wireless router the adapter is connecting to. It is best to use a Wireless-AC adapter to connect to a router that supports the Wireless-AC standard to achieve the maximum connection speed.
Should you have other questions, suggestions or verification regarding the device, feel free to contact us at [email protected] and include the link to this review.

Hi Hoturid,
Thank you for sharing your feedback about the WUSB6300 wireless adapter. Where is your wireless headset connected to? If both wireless devices are connecting to your wireless router using the same wireless band, they should not conflict unless the wireless Channel used by the router is already crowded. Try to adjust the wireless Channels on your router and use recommended Channels 1, 6 and 11 which are non-overlapping. For further assistance with your WUSB6300 adapter, you can send us an email at [email protected] together with the link to this review.

Linksys Support http://support.linksys.com

Don't have the product yet, but... You made it hard buy from you! I went online, picked out what I wanted, went to pay and couldn't get my account number to get the financing. I called the 800 number and they made it difficult too, not being able to lookup my account number or put the charge on my account. You got lucky, I didn't want to shop more elsewhere. I used another card, but I didn't get the best deal because your processes prevented it for me. You don't have to make it so hard to buy from you, especially for a customer that has such a long history with you. You could have made it easier and better for me, but you're just to big I guess.

Hi, NicholasC,
To isolate, let’s try moving closer to the router just to eliminate the possible physical obstructions and wireless interference. If the same thing is observed, test out the adapter using a different computer to isolate further. Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] if all else fails. Just include the OS version of the computer, your contact information, and a link to this review as a reference.

Hi Buybuy,
Thank you for sharing your review of the Linksys WUSB6300. The slow wireless connection you're experiencing on your desktop could be due to a number of reasons. Wireless interference, distance, and outdated firmware/software are just some of the factors that slow down the connection. Try adjusting the router's wireless channel to 6, 9, 11, or 1 to avoid possible interfering signal. Minimize physical obstruction by relocating your router or your wireless computer. Also, make sure that your wireless devices are running on their latest firmware/software.
You can email us at [email protected] for further assistance. Please include your contact details, reviewer name, and the link to this review for our reference.

Extremely disappointed with this product. Not only did I have to go through hoops to download the driver for it (the driver is NOT included with the product so you need an internet connection outside of where you're using the product to access and save the driver for install), but the product itself disconnects on its own without warning.

This product does not reflect what my internet download speed is, no matter which computer I use it in I get slower results than I should be, but I should be getting very fast results so this wifi card would be fine for normal internet browsing. Don't expect anything over 50mbps

Hi, Sleeved,
We appreciate your bringing this to our attention, and this is clearly not the experience we wanted you to have with our Linksys Product. We understand where you're coming from, and we would like to get this taken care of. To improve the performance of your Linksys WUSB6300 wireless adapter, we suggest to update the driver. If the update is successful, uninstall the device from device manager window, reboot the PC and try to reinstall. And if you're using a dual-band router which is simultaneously broadcasting two separate networks (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), try switching to other network so we can compare the results. Should you need further assistance, get in touch with us at [email protected] along with your contact details and the link to this post for reference. We would be more than willing to help you out.
