    I got a new pc recently, and its wifi was pretty bad. So I bought this and the wifi speed had gone from 40mbs to 300mbs. Great product!

    This device works pretty good. I have it located at the other end of our home from the router and have no real problems. It didn't get 5 stars because it's a Netgear product and is replacing a Netgear extender that crapped out after less than 2 years. Their brand is not quality.

    Works really well, but installation wasn’t quite as easy as a plug and play. Software was outdated so it then took quite awhile to update, plus my CD was slightly corrupted, had to finagle it a bit to get it fixed. Works fine now though.

    I needed to connect my upstairs desktop to the router downstairs but wasn't about to run an extra long cable through the apartment. So I bought this and have no regrets, it gets a good strong wifi signal.

    Purchased to replace faulty wireless module on a Z370 Asus motherboard. Works without issue and better than what it had replaced. Adhere to the notice that it is a strong magnet since it can interfere with mechanical hard drives if left nearby.

    My computer didn't have 5G capabilities and I have Spectrum internet. Before this: 30-35Mbs for internet. Speed tests done after getting it bumped it up to 116MBS. I consistently get at least 90MBS. If your computer isn't 5G compatable, I'd recommend this.

    Depending on the use you're looking at getting out of this if you're using it let's say with your laptop and a hotspot that you have through your cell service before you spend the money make sure you find out what the top speed is that the hotspot you're using can go to. Like mine I'm only able to squeeze out about 800 meg but normally it's setting at either 300 or 144 connection speed but I have seen it at 800 a couple times. If you're using it in your home and you have a really high speed router with wireless connection definitely hands down would be a good investment for the speed Improvement I've seen it still worth what I use it for with gaming. If you're just looking at browsing the internet I would go with one of the cheap ones that are $25 $30 but if you're doing any kind of streaming or gaming I would definitely spend the extra money for this it is well worth it.

    Built a new PC without a receiver on the motherboard. Decided to give the Nighthawk a try and have been impressed with the performance. Obviously direct cable is always better, but so far no complaints.

    Bought this based on online tech reviews and couldn't be more happy! This replaced a powerline ethernet connection I had for my PC and I went from 30 mbps to getting full speed for my 50 mbps Cox internet!

    I was skeptical about this for gaming use but the salesman convinced me that it would work and it does. Only time I get appreciable lag is when wife and kids are all gaming or streaming at the same time and the lag is not consistent or hampering to game play.

    Finally, a solution to add the internet to an older, non wi-fi enabled Desktop computer. I didn't believe it would work but plugged it in, it found my home network and worked immediately. Saved me the money I would have spent on a new computer.

    The NETGEAR AC1900 made the difference in speed to keep videos from buffering and games from hanging. A definite improvement over the previous wifi usb dongle. Would recommend!

    This wifi adapter out performed 3 others including an Asus nano and the Linksys 1200. I live in an 1880s farm house with 18" thick walls. I have no trouble connecting even in the yard.

    Works very well! Replaced my on board adapter in the desktop. This is the second computer I've done this with. Works as well, if not better, and frees up a slot on the board for something that might actually need it.

    Bought this so I could have wireless internet on my PC downstairs, and was not looking for this. Was looking for internal wireless, but could not find any, so went for external and was greatly impressed with this. Very easy to install and work with.

    The adapter works great with my computer. It provides a wifi connection where was none on my PCU. The only con is that it quite large and takes up some space. But overall it does what it was advertised to do.
