    It may have been a coincidence but when I bought this and installed the software, I couldn’t ever get it my Ethernet port to accept any speeds over 100mbps anymore. Was really frustrating and I ended up having to RMA my motherboard.

    This worked well as an alternative to cable while cable was out but was not the solution I ended up wanting.

    WIFI is way faster than the stock one my gaming desktop came with. The dock is also really nice and sturdy.

    The product is bulky for a wifi adapter. When it works, it is absolutely fine, using this for gaming has caused delay and freeze during online gaming session.

    I bought this for a desktop pc. I am still using it and it works fine, but am a bit disappointed with the speed. If I had to do it all over again I would have bought a pcie card and installed internally to the pc.

    I Bought this almost two years ago and ended up using my old Asus wifi adapter after it would not work. This Adapter's biggest issue was the fact that it came loaded with faulty software. The software would either switch the device off or onto a different mode. Do not buy this Adapter as it is a faulty device. Many users reported having this issue! Please buy this one instead

    Wasn’t able to connect to my WiFi at all. It would connect in a way but It wasn’t able to access the internet and when I would attempt to reconnect it would crash my WiFi network. Also looked up a fix and couldn’t find one. Seems to be too many things to fix out of the box. I’m sure if it worked it would be good considering the speeds it was able to pick up but it wasn’t able to even utilize them. I’ll be returning this for sure.
