Worked as intended. I have a custom built desktop from 3 years ago and they didn't have wifi adapters for motherboards then, but now this has come in handy. Works good as long as your provider is good.

This item does what is says. I can now stream from the basement, even though the router is on the second floor. WiFi is killing it when I stream videos.

Upgraded my Router and my computer did not support 6E. Works like a charm for a computer I bought for $30 and upgraded for about $150.

FIVE+ Stars! Computer is far from router behind walls, bookcases and under a desk. Previously had myriad problems with drop-outs, slow downs and poor reception. Now, with the AXE3000, I consistently have 4 bars and MUCH faster response. Thank you NETGEAR and Best Buy!! Can't say enough positives +++++ !

this was a great purchase for the price. I had great connectivity and speed. I eventually got a different one when I upgraded my wifi router but it was great when I had it. One note of caution, make sure you're router is strong enough to reach it. I had to get a wifi booster for my house because my walls interfered with the signal so much

My wife and I both work from home. Recently we moved to a 3k sqft home. At first i had no trouble connecting to my router nor with stability, but after getting a new work computer, i could barely stay connected. This neat little device fixed that problem! I’m two floors above my router on the opposite side of the house and this thing helps me get and stay connected.

I’ve been using the Netgear Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi Adapter for a bit, and I really like it so far. It’s fast and stable—I’m consistently getting 120 Mbps down on my 150 Mbps circuit, which is solid. The range is great too; even though my access point is pretty far away, it still works without any issues.
The only downside is that it’s a bit bulky if you plug it straight into a laptop or PC. It looks a lot better and feels more practical when connected to a dock, though.
Overall, I’m happy with it and wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again.

NetGear Nighthawk Consistently Gets It Right

I have always had more success using external Wi-Fi adapters on my laptops than what is typically installed internally.
Also big fan of Netgear products so this Wi-Fi adapter is a marriage made in heaven.
It connects first time, every time.
I am not rich by any means but there is something to be said for not making low price ones primary decision point. Not being a gamer, I don't care about the catchphrase "Lightning Fast" It needs to be fast enough that I don't find myself watching a spinning circle. This Netgear Nighthawk External Wi-Fi should suit everyone who uses their laptop to run business oriented applications and/or rock steady performance that leaves internal Wi-Fi in the dust.

I recently had the opportunity to upgrade my wireless connectivity with the NETGEAR Nighthawk AXE3000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 6E USB 3.0 Adapter, and I must say, it has been a game-changer. This cutting-edge device has revolutionized my online experience with its exceptional performance and advanced features.
First and foremost, the Wi-Fi 6E technology is a significant leap forward in terms of speed and capacity. With its tri-band capability, this adapter provides an impressive total bandwidth of up to 3000Mbps, allowing me to effortlessly stream 4K videos, engage in online gaming, and handle multiple high-bandwidth applications simultaneously. The addition of the 6GHz frequency band, exclusive to Wi-Fi 6E, offers even faster and less congested connections, ensuring a smooth and lag-free experience.
The installation process was hassle-free and straightforward. The USB 3.0 connectivity allows for quick and stable connections to my computer, and the adapter is compatible with various operating systems, including Windows and macOS. The device also features backward compatibility with previous Wi-Fi standards, ensuring it can be used with older routers if needed.
What truly sets the Nighthawk AXE3000 apart is its powerful antennas and beamforming technology. The four high-gain internal antennas provide excellent coverage throughout my home, eliminating dead zones and guaranteeing a strong and stable connection in every corner. Furthermore, the beamforming technology intelligently directs the signal towards my devices, enhancing overall range and reliability.
Another notable feature is the inclusion of advanced security protocols. The adapter supports WPA3 encryption, ensuring a secure and private connection, protecting my data and keeping unwanted intruders at bay. This peace of mind is invaluable in today's interconnected world.
The sleek black design of the adapter is aesthetically pleasing, and its compact form factor makes it easy to carry and use on the go. The LED indicators on the adapter provide clear status information, making it convenient to troubleshoot and monitor the connection.
In terms of performance, the Nighthawk AXE3000 consistently delivers exceptional speeds and low latency. It has surpassed my expectations in terms of overall wireless performance and stability, making it a worthy investment for anyone seeking a reliable and high-speed Wi-Fi connection.
Although the Nighthawk AXE3000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 6E USB 3.0 Adapter comes with a higher price tag compared to older Wi-Fi adapters, its advanced features, outstanding performance, and future-proofing make it well worth the investment for those who demand the best wireless experience.
In conclusion, the NETGEAR Nighthawk AXE3000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 6E USB 3.0 Adapter is a game-changer for high-speed wireless connectivity. With its blazing-fast speeds, extended coverage, advanced security features, and seamless compatibility, it has undoubtedly elevated my online experience to new heights. I highly recommend this adapter to anyone looking to unlock the full potential of their Wi-Fi network.

I had to buy a USB network adapter after the network adapter on my PC went out. I did some research and found this product. Upon returning home with the product, I followed the instructions in the box, and within 5 minutes was able to connect to the internet. I have had no issues with the adapter since, and am very happy with the purchase.

Perfect usb WiFi adapter for WiFi-6E

Quicj and easy install on both Windows 10 and 11, though you won't be able to fully use WiFi-6E on windows 10 due to OS limitations. Comes with a handy USB containing drivers if you are installing on a system that currently has no internet access. The base has a fairly long usb cable if you want to use it to put the antenna in an ideal location or to avoid having the devise sticking out of a laptop as it is kind of bulky, though I am not knocking the device for being slightly bulky considering performance.

I got as a backup, the port is excellent because the non port style plugs into a usb and on a laptop usb overlaps the open port, this unit prevents that. Easy to connect but be aware you have to plug it in each time and it connects very fast - speeds are noticeably faster. Great for getting a stronger wifi connection and need reliably faster speeds.

Pretty good wireless receiver. I get almost 500Mbps and no noticable interfience. My PC is on the opposite side of the house and it works pretty flawlessly. The set up was also fast an easy with the drivers being provided on a small USB drive. Definitely recommend for people who need to use wireless.
