Bought this to replace an older one, and am using this device with a new Linksys WRT 1900AC router. It's able to use the router's 5 GHZ connection which my previous USB adapter could not. Happy with purchase.

Works great on my old Dell desktop after the internal adapter failed. I would have rated this 5 stars except they DID NOT include a setup CD. My computer is old enough that it was not plug and play so I needed the setup disc. I didn't have an easy way to download the file. I had to figure out how to tether my cell phone to the computer for the download. This caused a very frustrating evening.

I Purchased this USB Adapter router as my wifi adapter within my laptop died. I had my laptop hooked to a wired connection and had to keep my laptop in one spot. I have a Linksys router that I have used now for 5 years still works (plan to upgrade router in a few weeks as well with a lynksys AC model) and decided to try their USB Adapter AC1200 model. Installation was a breeze in less than 5 minutes I was browsing the internet and playing videos on my laptop and be able to move around in my apartment with my laptop streaming. For the record its been a month of owning it and still no issues at all. Recommend to all.

I received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for my honest feedback and am glad I did.
I haven't yet had a chance to test this with a dual band or AC router yet and will update when I do, however in my testing with my single band router and my laptop I have a better connection with less lag than I have with the internal receiver. I have also experienced this with my work laptop.
It seems well built and I am looking forward to using it when I get my AC router.
I installed this on a Windows 7 32bit laptop and a Windows 10 64bit laptop without issue.

The packaging is good and includes a CD (nice touch) with the drivers and the manual. I plugged the adapter into a Super Speed USB port (USB 3.0) and the driver installation went off without a hitch. The adapter is a bit larger than some others I have seen, and it blocks the adjacent USB port. The dongle connected to an 802.11n wireless network without any problems. Network access speed was reasonable. I also connected to an 802.11ac wireless network without any problems at 2.4 and 5GHz. I received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for my feedback.

I am not tech savvy but I received this adaptor free from Linksys in exchange for an honest review. I use my laptop normally in the same room as my router because it's an older model and seems to run slow when I'm on the Internet. This adapter has sped up download time significantly and I'm able to watch HBO and Netflix on my computer without having it frequently buffering. It was so easy to set up as well. I used other brands in the past but my experience with the Linksys products I've purchased have always been easier to set up and are very reliable. Love it!

Great device
Lynksys ask me to try this AC adapter at no cost to me, and write a review.I am impressed with the way it works. I can now take my laptop to our Deck. I could not do that before. . I do a lot of projects in my garage/work shop and I was always running into the house to research one thing or another .Now I take my laptop with this WUSB6300 AC adapter with me to the garage . This is a great device and I will recommend it to my friend

I received received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for myhonest feedback about 2 weeks ago, I testeted it so here we go. Both my son and I like to roam around the house, inside and outside and we would lose connectivity, this product changed all that, we are free to roam. Here are some results: Signal Strength: between 360 mbps - 470 mbps or so, Signal Stability: 95 -100%, I never lost connection roaming within reasonable distance.

my network card broke and needed something to replace it quickly, so i bought this. I tested the speed and it easily downloaded content from the internet at 50-60-mb/sec. it has fuzzed out on me a time or two which required me to unplug the USB and plug it back in, when it recconected it worked perfectly again--odd. dont know if it was my computer or the unit that caused the minor malfunction.

Works fine. Had an older model of the same for many years, then stopped working on 5Ghz. Small 'footprint', no extra antenna attached.

After reading reviews about wireless USB adapters I was skeptical about them, but it was either try one or run a really long cable across my house. Decided to give this one a try and it worked flawlessly. Just install the included software, plug it in and you're all set! No complaints so far.

The network card on my Toshiba laptop went bad one day. I thought I would have to buy a new laptop. I was happy to find out I could buy this instead. Be careful- one of these bent, and we had to exchange it for a replacement. You need to be careful about where you store it.

I tried this wireless USB internet adapter on my laptop, an ASUS U$&VC. This has a built in wireless internet. The adapter installed without problem and is faster than the built in adapter.
