This allowed me to avoid a potential costly repair to fix the wi-fi hardware on my laptop. Simply plugged it in and was able to get wi-fi through an USB port.

Easy setup, works great 98% of the time and gets very fast wifi speeds. Rarely, it will drop the internet signal and need to be unplugged and plugged back in, but not often.

We had purchased this a few years back and we needed another so why not go with something that has proven itself. It works as described.

Happened to be browsing and saw this on sale....my laptop wifi adapter will only do 2.4Ghz while my Lynksys E6400 is dual band. Downloads have more than quadrupled in speed so I'm quite pleased.

Surprise! This USB adapter does not come with packaged software and there is no statement on the box stating this. You have to download a zip file on Linksys website. I guess this saves them money. If you don't have another computer already connected to the internet this maybe a problem. After downloading the software on another computer, I could not get it to work after removing and reinstalling the software 3 times and following the directions provided on the web page. I was considering returning the item and as a last attempt I went to add device in the control panel, and it was listed. I went to device properties and clicked on update drivers, and it finally worked. I don't know if it was Windows 11 or a problem with the software provided by Linksys. Once you get it to work it's great. Software? What a pain! 3 stars no packaged software.

Finally switched back to a desktop and picked up this badboy. Does a solid job, speeds good, price was reasonable, and the size is comparable to a large USB flash drive.

I bought this adaptor when our laptop's internal adaptor began to fail. The new adaptor fit the bill and we had no issues with it and it auto-installed without issue.
