    Ive bought a couple of these now, i use them for weak Wi-Fi signals. I throw one in my bag when I go to hotels to get the best signal. Very easy setup with a couple options, corded or plugged in straight to usb.

    I was able to walk through the instructions fairly easily. I had a few bumps along the way, but was able to figure it out. I did not realize my 2012 computer could not get more than 50 mps. I'm glad I was able to upgrade to a POSSIBLE 800+

    Needed something to entertain my sister. She does not like watching to much tv but this helped out when attached to a overhead projector.

    I purchased it for help getting a faster/stronger connection while visiting resorts across the country/world. I have seen some help and then conflicts because of its use. Perhaps it is some setting that I am not aware of that is causing these conflicts.

    My internal WiFi card failed, and it was $300 to fix it. This unit works every time. 1. Too bad it is not smaller, but still gets good reception. 2. Too bad it is too wide - it blocks other ports on my PC.

    This Netgear AC1200 wifi usb stick is the best one in the stores. I originally got the Linksys AC1200 and it was incredibly bad. I recommend Netgear 100% over linksys. Very much worth it, and downloads at over 300mbps!
