I purchased this to be able to connect computer to WiFi without having to run cable over 25 feet. It works great, ease of installation was fantastic. You will need to know Admin password for computer if you set computer up with one.

The adapter is as good as connecting a wire.
Been in use for last 2 months and have used 8 hours a day daily with VPN to access remote machines. Works flawlessly.
Highly recommend it if you are looking for a wireless solution for your pc instead of dragging the wires to your device location.

am able to get the same up/down as when i have a hardline connected. its a little long, but if you have an open usb in the back of your pc, it doesnt matter. Think i had to download an updated driver off of the website, but other than that its plug and play

Got this a while ago for my desktop computer. This WIFI adaptor works really well. I can't think of a time when it ever disconnected. Was easy to set up. It does stick out of the back of the tower, so be careful not to hit the wall with it.

Works even better than expected. Ive had a USB wifi adapter for my computer before and did not have a good experience. I was hesitant getting another one but I am pleasantly surprised at how well this one works.

Quick easy setup for a desktop to receive witless internet. Plug in and up and running! Some older systems don’t have built in Wi-Fi and this is an easy fix.

Got this for a older Toshiba Satalight laptop. We just had Geek Squad install a mesh WIFI 6 in our home. The laptop did not recognize the mesh 6 system. Geek Squad did a software update and now it works flawlessly.

Receives the Wi-Fi signal great and have had no problems. My only wish is that it had a driver to run on Ubuntu. The signal is strongest on the front or top of the computer, but it still works when plugged into the back usb port.

I like it. Seems to work quick from what I've noticed. I do like that is connects via usb 3.0 which means more speeds ultimately. Also that it is dual band, that is nice to have. This in my tech opinion is one of the better wifi adapters. Glad I spent the few extra bucks.

This adapter does exactly what it should without any lagtime or gaps in connectivity. I am glad I purchased this external adapter with my new Dell tower as it saved me money to do it this way versus having an internal one.

Simply a plug and play item. Adapter connected to the internet and downloaded the drivers and software on its own. Was almost ready to use before I could check for drivers. Then I realized they were already installed. Nuff said.

There were several USB Adapters to choose from but after reading from the box all that this adapter had to offer and the limited uses that I have, this was perfect. Once I got it home and installed it (which was very easy) the range and dual-band wireless support is great!

Recently misposted a review on this site for a Netgear Nighthawk I purchased and returned for this Linksys. Apology to Linksys. This usb adapter is excellent and I should have purchased this instead of the Nighthawk.

Just plug in the USB port and start surfing. I didn't need to install anything. The only problem is it's too bulky and I can't put another USB on top or underneath. I have to remove it first, but otherwise it works great.
