      Hi,

      One of the possible reasons why your WUSB6300 Adapter was not connecting to your Wi-Fi router is a compatibility issue. We regret to hear that the product is no longer with you. We could have tapped one of our Escalation Engineers to take a closer look at your network setup to make your adapter up and running. Should you wish to give it another chance in the future, we're just an email away at [email protected]. We'd be more than happy to serve you.


      Regards,

      Hi Fjp60,

      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. You can also change your router’s wireless channel to avoid possible interference in your network. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] should you need further assistance. Include your contact details and the link to this review.

    Not a big fan of this device. I needed a wifi booster for my laptop computer. Unfortunately I also had to connect sma printer to the computer as well. This booster was too wide, which meant that I couldn’t plug both items into the usb ports at the same time. I had to return this item to Best Buy and purchase a smaller Asus Booster instead. Problem solved, and I am very happy with the Asus booster.

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

    I had to purchase a new WiFi USB adapter because my old one was not Windows 10 compatible. Unfortunately I didn't find that out until after I updated. This one fit the bill perfectly. It was quick and easy to install and has been working like a charm. No dropped signal and no lagging.

    I purchased this because the 2.4 ghz signal in my house always seems to be spotty. My router also has the 5ghz but my sons computer would not pick it up. Now that we got this his computer is fast as ever! Exactly what we needed and set up was a breeze!

    Perfect addition to my Linksys home system.

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

    I upgraded my internet and got a smart ac router. But my laptop was not getting the speeds because it could not run on 5.0 ghz bandwidth. So, even tho I was paying $15 extra a month to get the best speeds, my laptop could not get the speeds. But this adapter allows for such a thing. I now have a Linksys AC Smart router, a Linksys wifi extender and this. I'm so happy. I waited until it went on sale. But it was $45 on Amazon, so I price matched it. Now, to get the best speeds, I need to get the really expensive AC 1900 Linksys router. But that is $249. I will wait because maybe Linksys will come out with an even better router. y speeds are 104.11 download mbps and 39.60 upload bps. Thats pretty fast.

    Surprised at Speed Increase vs. N

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

    Plugged the adapter to a Win10 desktop to replace an N adapter and the difference was pretty surprising. I had a new AC1200 router but had not yet pulled the trigger on buying an AC adpater. Wireless connection speed jumped to 760mbps from 105mbps using this new adapter. Installation was usual USB with the desktop recognizing the device and installing the driver. Downloads are fast, range has increased, and YouTube/Netflix loads quickly. Note: I received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for my honest feedback.

    Awesome, fast, reliable usb wireless adapter!

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

    I received this as a free product from the Linksys family & friends offer and I'm so glad that I did! This wireless adapter has not lost the signal from my wireless router once, and I'm currently on my 5G wireless band without any speed lag or bad signal quality. It also uses a USB 3.0 connection, although it works just as good on USB 2.0 as it does 3.0. I tested both types of ports to be sure. Performance is great, speed is great, and it is a great product overall...thanks Linksys.

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

    About a month ago Linksys sent me a free sample of the Wireless-AC USB Adapter and honestly the results were better than I had expected. The installation of the product was extremely simple and you could definitely notice the difference in speed with the product since it allowed me to truly capture the 5G signal on my desktop and laptop from the wireless router. Overall it is a product I would recommend and thanks Linksys for allowing me to sample it.

    5 days ago I bought a competitive product, spent 30 min installing it and yesterday it kicked the bucket. This am I bought this Linksys adapter and it installed almost instantly. The install spent more time reading the CD! And no issues, it just installed. Will not go back to that other well known "N" product. Trust in Linksys!

    I received this adapter and used it with my laptop, it allowed me to move around the house, in the back yard without interruptions in wifi, I am able to use it in my car at wifi hot spots and connect a lot easier and w/faster connections, a very nice addition because I work on the road a lot. Thanks

    Practical upgrade to internal 80211bg adapter

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

    Linksys WUSB6300 was the perfect upgrade to replace my internal 802.11bg adapter which failed. Physical and software installation were easy: plug in desktop USB port and install setup software. WPS button and dual LEDs facilitate setup. Slim/compact profile does not obstruct adjacent USB ports. Compatible with Windows 10 Home and provides reliable operation through interior walls. Nice that at 5GHz there are no discernable interfering emitters. High data capacity (650Mbps at -53dBm RSSI) is overkill as I have only 4.5Mbsp internet connection over DSL and use an USB2.0 port, but WUSB6300 is ready and able to handle all plausible upgrades. Compact fixed orientation internal antenna without extension cable or cradle restricts ability to reposition and orient antenna to reduce path loss, but extra hardware and hassle are probably not worth small (≈2-5dB) potential benefit.
