I recently built a gaming desktop and added this adapter to maximize speed when gaming and downloading. It's been the best dual-band WiFi adapter I've used to date.

I had upgraded to Netgear's AC3200 router. And I discovered that my 4 year old desktop wasn't enjoying the new speed. So, I bought this adapter to bring my desktop wireless capabilities up to date. It was easy to install and it really did make a difference. I have always loved Netgear's easy to use products.

I had to get a WiFi adapter since a wired connection would be impossible. My PC has a built in WiFi card, but I was only getting around 85-100 Mbps. After I installed this WiFi adapter, I was averaging 130 Mbps. This is a great card for someone who doesn’t have space for a PCIe network card or can’t have a wired connection. I use this for gaming and Zoom meetings at the same time, and I have no issues with this adapter.

Worked Well For 3 Years

Purchased Feb. 2020 in store and it's been steadily reliable. It does need restarting occasionally and I just reinstalled the drivers because it was getting slower. That seemed to help. Thinking it may be almost time to replace it though.
Pic is from today's speed test.

Honestly I should've bought it way sooner. Not any issue I could complain on. I've never hooked up a wifi adapter, but it was simple, didnt need the manual. Ran into 3 connection hiccups over a span of 2days. It's been nearly 15 days since and I havent lost connection and everything's great. Worth the $.

Good upgrade from my old wifi adapter

This is a really good adapter if you have the right internet speed for it. I recently upgraded to 600mbps and this really sped up my internet speed for my computer. I was using a cheap wifi adapter before this and was only able to get 100mbps. Now with this adapter, I get the speed for which I pay for. I average about 550mbps if I'm by myself, but since I have a family of 6, everyone uses the wifi, so my average then drops to about 400mbps, which is still really good considering I have 5 other family members streaming on their devices.

Purchased this due to the slow speeds from my dell built in WIFI. This is extremely fast and provides the speed I need for fast downloads. It us a little large but with the stand you can set it to the side and just hook up the cable and you are up and surfing the net at fast speeds.

The only way to use the driver is to install the software which uses way too much CPU utilization, but the software can be closed after start-up without issue. Other than that the performance is great as long as you're plugged into USB 3.0 or higher

Product works great. My only complaint is that my PC doesn't have a disk drive so I couldn't use the included disk to download the latest drivers and it was somewhat of a pain to find online but still giving this 5 stars as it works flawlessly.

Fast and speedy adapter... BUT... will occasionally disconnect from the wifi. Did some digging online and it turns out this little guy struggles with some USB ports. Plugged mine into an older USB 2.0 port and didn’t have further problems.

The router goes in and out sometimes. I don’t know why but it’s still giving me 300+mbps for internet.
My router is 30ft and I can’t use an Ethernet cord so this was the best option and boy was I right!!!

After 6 years with my Netgear A6200 WiFi USB Adapter, I decided to purchase the AC1900 Netgear Nighthawk, USB 3.0. Setup was simple and it performs extremely well. I have had no problems, or wifi drop outs since installation.

This router is recommended for those who desire speed and band width for multiple devices. The smart technology aligns the device to the correct band speed to maximize the speed. The six antennas help to maximize the range. This router has a 1 gigahertz processor to eliminate lag.
