    I was given this by the sales rep that helped me even though I asked for something else entirely. I had to talk to someone else and they eventually helped me get Kaspersky instead.

    It broadcasts ok. I sit about 20 feet from the TV and movies get really choppy and they start to pixelate. It's good about 60% of the time hence the three star rating.

    Not as easy as other wireless adapters. I probably should be blaming windows and not the adapter itself. Each time I had to go to settings to connect I wish it was automatic.

    A very poor copy of AirPlay

    As a newbie to the Windows universe from the world of Apple, I purchased this to connect my windows machine to my TV in the same way I had grown accustomed to AirPlay. This probably works just fine for someone looking to show off vacation photos or, mirror their Microsoft Word document, but the latency with audio/video streaming is abysmal. It's worth the inconvenience of running HDMI cable across the room to make sure that I don't lose 1/3 of my video in the streaming process.

    My Surface Pro 4 is within 15 feet, but connection is lost periodically. Seems to only work reliability on a shorter distance. Quality great, but distance limited

    The store associate sold me on the concept of this product and it would've been great had it worked more proficiently. I started a 2nd job that I could work from home & it required me to use 2 monitors (my laptop & my TV as the 2nd monitor). When the device was plugged in, it worked successfully for ~20mins and then it would stop working & when I would try to reconnect it would act as if it was "loading" indefinitely...like I literally waited 45mins one of the many times this occurred. At the suggestion of the store associate when I called to report an issue w/the product they recommended I unplug the cord from my tv and wait a minute before plugging it back in. I did that and it didn't work until perhaps the 7th+ attempt. However, I would commence working and then got disconnected at least 15+ times in an 8hr shift. I took the product back for a full refund to Best Buy

    This product works well but can only support one pc at a time although my pc will support 3 displays. That makes me have to buy another one.

    Purchased two of these items. They worked for about two months and then I began having connection issues where they would just randomly drop the signal. I would not recommend using these in any sort of presentation mode where a reliable connection is important.
