    I purchased this adaptor becauae I started having issue with my computer's wifi card. Simple plug and play and even the software was easy to use. I honestly believe my wireless connection is even stronger with this adaptor. Glad I purchased!!!

    We were having some major construction, one of the difficult jobs was to keep the computer running, that and getting the cat moved. I purchased the Nighthawk. It was easy to install and works great and now we are wireless to everything, can even put the printers in the closet while our construction goes.

    We have a motherboard that is Ethernet only so this was able to help connect to the wifi. It was great and didn’t take too much space.

    While it works most of the time, mine disconnects a lot. I've heard this is a common problem with this particular item. I switched it from my back USB port to one of my front ones and it seems to work better, but for $70, it should work - no questions asked.

    Tested a couple different internet speed test sites and the performance is within 5% of wired on my Windows 10 PC. Also have the Nighthawk X6 R8000. I wanted to move my router to a different part of the house and did not want to pull ethernet cables. This was a great option.

    Bought 2 previously: one for my husband and one for me. Great for us with home wifi for our needs. Son came home from school after graduation and bought him one. No lag time or any complaints. Great product I would recommend to anyone!

    My boyfriends house is “WiFi challenged”, as he says, and his PC’s built in network card was insufficient for connecting to the internet. It wouldn’t even pick up his routers signal or any signal nearby. Since purchasing this device, we are able to keep his computer connected without any hiccups.

    I needed something to replace my internal wi-fi with antennas that kept disconnecting on me. This device was a perfect replacement. I haven't had any problems yet. It comes with an base and USB extender, which is necessary for me, as it would stick way out from the PC if I just plugged into a USB port.

    I got a refurbished computer and it was not set up for WiFi and I did not know what to do. I asked my granddaughter and she told me about this product she set it up in 10 minutes and it works great. I would really recommend this to anyone and the price was pretty good too.

    This adapter preforms well for the money. I find on my home network setup it matches the performance of the power-line setup I was using before to get internet to my desktop. I would make sure your router is at least dual band in-order to take advantage of speed this WiFi adapter can provide.

    My gaming laptop kept dropping Wifi connection, so I bought this Netgear adapter. Installation was a breeze, the adapter works well and I no longer get random disconnects in the middle of a boss fight. It's on a larger side, I wouldn't recommend it as a portable device. But for a stationary computer it's excellent.

    Works as advertised as I occasionally need to have my desktop running off cellular hot spot for work if home internet is down for whatever reason (ISP related). The Netgear Genie software looks like it was written in 2007 though, and leaves much to be desired.

Daughter told me that net gear had this product so she'd be able to use her computer set it up only took 5 minutes and Wallah works just like it says.

    I recently bought this adapter to replace one I left behind when I moved to a new state. It's easily swappable between laptop, desktop, gaming setup, etc. Always gets a great signal no matter where in the house you use it. Highly recommend!
