    Needed a WiFi adapter and this did the job well. It's overpriced for a USB WiFi dongle, but I was in a pinch and didn't want to pick up a cheaper alternative that would overheat or have poor reception. Only real issue was user-error when I didn't notice the USB stick with the required drivers. Took me way too long to notice it in the box.

    Works as intended and is incredibly fast. I use these to set up devices that do not have wifi connectivity out of the box, and it works incredibly well even with the windows default drivers. If a wifi card in any of my devices breaks for some reason, I know it's worth it to have a high-quality external adapter on-hand.

    This is one of the few wifi 6E dongles with good, native support for modern linux kernels. This contains the mt7921u chipset and is great for Kali linux. There were some connectivity issues with Windows 11, but that wasn't why I primarily purchased this.

    While this isn't giving me true wired speeds, I am close enough in both transfers and latency to not miss my ethernet cable, even with my computer across the house from the router! Added bonus of animals not being able to sever the connection!

    A good option for a quick and easy setup. In order to take advantage of the faster speeds of wifi 6e you do need windows 11.

    I use to use ethernet but after moving my computer to a different room I wasn't able to anymore. I got this to fix that problem and I use this everyday. It gives me fast and great internet, I can also now utilize my routers 6G band. Great product!!

    Had my doubts, but I ended up being thoroughly surprised. The set up was a breeze a 7 year could set this up. Haven’t dropped WiFi connection and stays stable during competitive gaming.

    Solid reception from the Nighthawk router at the other end of the house. Went from a cheap adapter dropping my games at 10:30 every night to uninterrupted connection. Bit bulky but hardly an issue.

    Great WIFI adapter for apartment. Computer nook area didn't have a dedicated Ethernet port and the router was located at the other side of the apartment and this adapter was able to get me AT LEAST 200 Mbps speeds, which is enough to work from home and play video games on my gaming PC.
