    Works as advertised. I have a number of Netgear products and this one works quite well. I'm not taking full advantage but like the fact I can use its features later on.

    I purchased this adapter to upgrade from the USB 2.0 adaptor which I had been using. I have definitely been very pleased with the throughput that the USB 3.0 interface has given.

    This is a good add on wifi if you're looking for easy setup and a better wifi speed if an internal mini USB on a dongle doesn't provide adequate performance.

    Easy to use, however when using the included dock-like stand, there is lag as opposed to plugging directly into motherboard

    Switched my in home networking from DSL to optical fiber. After switchover my laptop could not see the network when running on the fiber network. Eventually found out that the router was of an advanced model type and my 6 year old laptop's wireless adapter was just not seeing both its 2.5 and 5 gig bands. Purchased the product a day later at local Best Buy, did a fast 15 minute installation using the supplied CD software and my laptop had no further problems connecting to the network.
