    This has been the best internet adaptor I have had for my desk top. Others have been flimsy and breakable.

    Purchased product to take advantage of higher speeds provided by my ISP. I gave this two * because the .exe file would not load. I ended up having to go into Device Manager and disable the internal network adapter in order to get the "plug and play" network adapter to work. This item is NOT for a novice user expecting an easy fix and setup!

    My router and computer are not close to each other, but they are also not that far apart. I think this adapter was having trouble picking up the router either that or it was not compatible with something on my devices. Compared to other adapters it was getting hardly any speed for download speed. I worked with tech support and even exchanged the adapter in case the first one was defective but with no luck, I wound up having to return it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
