    Used it to get my mother's PC connected to her wireless router supplied by Verizon. Her PC runs Linux Mint and it works flawlessly. Highly recommend.

    My laptop wifi was under-performing with the built in adaptor which had more that one problem. I tried a wifi range extend with some small improvement. The best answer was the AC wifi adaptor which allowed me to connect to the 5Ghz.

    My house is a reasonable size, I place my modem in the middle half of the house and sometimes certain areas don’t get strong WiFi, so I purchased this for a computer and it has double the WiFi strength.

    Have an HP Laptop that the internal WiFi just doesn't work and it wasn't worth the time returning it due to adding a Internal SSHD. Best Solution was this Network Adapter.

    A great Wifi adapter and the ONLY one compatible with Windows 10 straight out of the box! The only problem I have is losing signal once I'm not actively on the internet for awhile. It's easy to reset, however. Otherwise it's a lifesaver!

      Hi, Lanamcwn,

      It looks like you are enjoying you internet connection with this adapter. However, what caught our attention is the part where you lose the connectivity if there's no online activity. To isolate this, make sure that the latest driver is installed and try changing the wireless channel of the router to reduce the interference. Email us at [email protected] so that our Escalation Engineers can walk you through the steps. Indicating your phone number and the link to this post for our reference would be appreciated.
