I wanted my second desktop PC in another room and decided to go wireless. I would have given this adapter five stars but it's not quite as fast as my direct Ethernet connection is. I would recommend this to others though it does everything I need it to even while I download and play multi-player games simultaneously online.

Purchased this wireless USB 3.0 network adapter for my son's high-end gaming computer and it performs superbly. I was surprised that the new Cyber Power computer did not come installed with a wireless network card and was quite skeptical about purchasing a USB 3.0 wireless version but it works perfect!

Currently using to extend WiFi signal and provide a lan hook up to my tower. It doesn't provide blazing speeds but it does work.

I purchased this to replace a cheap dongle I had bought on amazon for my living room pc. This adapter has twice the signal strength compared to the old one and by using it on its stand I don't have the overheating issues that I think killed the old one. All in all a great adapter that is worth every penny.

Works just as expected. Very easy to set up and use, then forget. Expecting it to work for a long time. It is a little pricy for such a simple device. Overall a good buy.

Needed a WiFi adapter since my PC is nowhere near my router and putting wires through the walls/attic was too much of a hassle. Connects to my 5GHz router located miles away at the other side of the home. I’m able to stream and play games at great speeds, no lag at all.

I bought this for my wife’s laptop which has been losing WiFi connection lately and looks like a problem with the onboard wireless adapter. Once I installed this it’s worked like a charm! It hits higher speeds than the laptops own onboard adapter. I would recommend it.

It works well and was slightly slower to set up than anticipated. the set up was easy, just took longer than anticipated due to proprietary software requirement. It looks good and is small enough to be put nearly anywhere.

Had the Netgear 600 and would get speeds of 35 mbps down to 2 mbps after about 20 minutes. Could have possibly been firmware but would get really annoying. This WNIC has kept me at a reliable 60 mbps. I'm about 200 ft away from my router - through a wall. Yes my router is AC capable and has it enabled.

These are great way of adding wireless to our desktop. They were easy to use, just plug and they connected immediately. Used these for my kids desktops so I can move them anywhere in their rooms. Before they were limited to the wired connections, this is so much better.

While traveling, our internal wifi card couldn't get enough wifi signal to connect and work. We purchased and plugged-in this USB WiFi adapter and was able to work and my kids could game. Sesame Street simple to plug-in and get working.

I bought it to replace my motherboard WiFi (my cat completely destroyed it). This one is awesome and easy to use plus I have an option to just simply plug it in as it is or use another setup provided. Strongly recommend.

So far so good. It is going through 2 walls and a bathroom about 50' from the cable modem and gets a strong signal. No problems streaming movies and tv shows etc. If you don't want to add a wireless card to your computer, or want the ability to move this around, I would highly recommend it.

My time with this item has been great. It is very fast for a wireless adapter. The only drawback is that you need to download the new driver and firmware update. It will not work that well without it, especially with win 10, but once you have it works great. Would definitely recommend it.

I was using the built in wifi on my board, and getting lack luster speeds. Upgraded to this and made a huge difference!! Much higher speeds, and it rarely drops a connection (which happened frequently before). Defintely worth it!

I bought this WiFi adapter for my gaming PC in order to replace the Ethernet cable I was using and it works wonders. I can play online games like Overwatch very easily with no lag. Download speed is super fast, too. I would highly recommend this product, and it's definitely worth the extra bucks.
