    I had this for a few years now, since 2017 or so! It works great when it actually works! My major problem is that it always dropping the network/losing network connections every few hours and then I had to manually unplug and plug it from the USB port and then it would happen again after another hour or so. I use this on 3 of my PC and a few laptop to test out and had the same problem. I don't know if it's a defective product or driver, since I'm using the latest driver, 1.0.0.39 and with or without the Netgear genie software, it's still does the same thing.

    Works as designed and described. Couldn't use it to project to wireless screen though. Must have missed that in the description. Had to use a PCI WiFi card from Amazon.

    Installed correctly. Worked for 1 hour. Quit. Got it working again. Quit again. Threw away and bought something else that works great. Not sure if it's me or the device. But the new one installed and didn't quit.

    I purchased this to make my old computer wifi compatible. This item did not work on my computer I am not comfortable giving this a rating as I am not sure if it was because of the item or the age of the computer.
