    Honestly it made a huge difference to my PC, compared to my internal wifi adapter this one almost tripled my speed and connectivity. It’s not too expensive on price and greatly boosted my gaming.

    The price is high but its good and easy to use. It depends on speed your looking for, i have use other wifi adapters and see minimum upgrade compared to 5g wifi adapter. The download speed goes up but only little.

    I have a relatively new gaming pc with a 4070 graphics card (prebuilt). My pc had a realtek network system and antenna. The network system that my pc came with is garbage. Realtek is garbage. Ran speed tests and was getting around 50mbps download and 23 upload. Got this adapter and ran network tests. 700mbps download and around 500-600mpbs upload. This network adapter is amazing. Super fast speeds and super happy with my purchase. Highly recommend.

    Works incredibly well. My built in wifi in my motherboard had extremely limited range. This adapter allowed me to connect to the dorm router on my floor for wifi despite it being on the otherside of the building. Software is easy to install.

    This thing works amazing. My old pc had a broken wifi chip and was on its last legs. This thing not only works but I’m getting better wireless speeds than I was previously. Got it on sale and glad I did!

    This WiFi adapter has worked fantastic for me. I’ve got my router across the house and switching from the old adapter to this one increased my WiFi speed from 9mbsp to around 115mbps.

    Might be a lil pricey but the speed and reliability are second to none. I like that the dock is long enough to place it anywhere on your setup. I can play a steam game while watching something and in a discord call with little to no hiccups. But beware if youre downloading games or files while do something else it may hiccup a bit but nothing unusable. On steam downloading a game while streaming videos i can get up to 600mbps constant, results may vary but regardless i think this is what youre looking for if you need a boost on pc wifi. Keep in mind i get up to 800mbps on xfinity

    Good product bought if during Black Friday so it was cheaper but I didn’t have a thing that would reach my WiFi that good so it was not or miss if my WiFi was good bought this and saved me now I be getting 0 ping highest like 70 with multiple apps open in the back. Before then I couldn’t even have 1 open and it would lag so much you have to install software for it but it took me like 10 minutes maybe you do need WiFi to set it up which ig was a big problem for some people but not for me over all good product don’t know how to compare it to any other ones because this is the only one I’ve ever had only reason for 4 stars is because 5 would be glazing. Thanks *long ahh review oh forgot to add looks like a little satélite tower on top of your pc which i don’t really care just wanted to add looks kinda cool? Don’t think it works for consoles but idk

    Fast & Steady Connection for my PC gaming! I have a wifi 6 router with fiber optics at 2G. With my router being 3 rooms away, this holds a steady and wuick gaming connection in steam. No lag, great ping, 600+ MBPS download speeds (amazing for being on wifi and router being 3 rooms down).

    This is an excellent wi-fi adapter, well worth the price! When I moved my PC away from my router (hence losing a direct wired connection), I needed something to pick up the wi-fi on the complete opposite side of the house. Sure, I could've just moved the router from the basement, but since I have several gaming consoles wired in, it wasn't an option. This adapter has provided a fast and stable connection to my PC on the opposite side of the house. Very happy with the purchase
