Customers are saying

Many appreciate the adapter's good range and relatively easy installation process. While some users noted the small size of the adapter, others reported occasional software issues. Overall, the positive feedback on performance and ease of use outweighs the negative comments.

    The campground where I stay has WiFi. Unfortunately the signal is a little weak. I had a Netgear N300 Wireless USB Adapter and upgraded to the AC1200 Wireless Adapter. My download speed has improved.

    It works awesome but the problem was it kept kicking my son off wifi something to do with the cord. The problem was I had geek squad hook it up so when I went to return I had to print off the receipt and I didnt realize it had a cd with it (not a big computer geek so I didnt know anything about the cd). Drive 30 miles to tell me I couldn't return without the cd so had to buy a new one and still need to bring it back again. Works great but the cord issue.

    This is a trusted brand name in our house; we have the Cox NetGear46 cable modem/router to go with it. This was easy to install and worked as expected right out of the box. Be sure to install the most recent drivers first... Stay away from the Linksys adapter- it never worked for more than 10 minutes for us !

    While this item has decent reviews from various sites, I tried installing it out of the box and had issues, mostly with the accompanying software. It just wouldn't install on my system properly. When I tired a workaround, my internet access constantly dropped connection. Plus, it began interfering with my wireless mouse and keyboard. Returned the next day and went back to an Ethernet connection.

    We just moved into new home and needed to install new cable and internet access to two computer systems. We could not physically connect the home system computer to cable and the good folks at Best Buy recommended the NETGEAR AC1200 Dual Band Wi-Fi USB 3.0 Adapter for our solution! Easy to install and after a brief instructions, the system is online and running perfectly!
