Worked as advertised. Was able to increase my old laptops wi-fi download speed from less than 100mbps to over 500 mbps.

Used this on my wife's desktop as her built in wifi card was having trouble maintaining signal from the router. This stick works great and now she never has issues with intermittent disconnects.

Every once in a while I lose my connection. It's irritating because I'm usually right in the middle of something important when this happens. I have to unplug it and then plug it back in after a while.

It works well and has decent speed but experiences connection issues with the computer every now and then. To fix this just unplug it and restart the computer.

I followed the instructions as directed. My computer could not find the antenna or device so I could not get it to work. I returned it. My computer is new so not sure what happened. Running windows 10

Works well in my laptop. I had to find a solution for wifi on my laptop. I upgraded to Windows 10, and now my built-in wifi adaptor does not work. This product was exactly what I needed. It also has a great range.

This Usb wireless AC adapter is ok. I had issues with it occasionally losing connection. When it did work it was much faster than the internal wireless N card but it dropped connection often requiring me to reboot my laptop to get it back up and running. For the price it's not worth it. I ended up buying a much more reliable and cheaper internal wireless ac card that I have yet to have an issue with weeks later for 1/4 of the price I paid for this USB adapter. I would not recommend this product.

This item worked really well with my HP laptop for the couple of weeks I had it. Unfortunately my apartment was burglarized and this item was taken along with my laptop and computer speakers.

It has worked better than a pci express wifi card that I had tried. This one has not lost connection at all that I can remember. The bandwith is pretty robust. Duel channel too!

This was my first WiFi dongle purchase and I was not disappointed. It works very well with my router and Wireless extender. The only negative I can think of, is that the extension USB cable for it is very short.

Installed it with no issues and it worked for a couple of hours. Then it couldn't see any networks at all. Returned it for replacement, but haven't installed the second one yet. Like the docking station feature.

I had the product for 2 months now and have no problems with the product on my wireless network. It replaced the Linksys internal adapter since windows 10 does not support that model anymore.

Set up disk kept making my computer crash. I had to do a lot of research to fix it. I had to run the program as an administrator. Once set up it works well.
