A small business on a shoestring sometimes has that one older machine that needs to "play nice" with the network and newer technology, this simple wi-fi adapter makes that possible and it is so painlessly easy to setup and use.

It works great and solved me the problem of running a ethernet cable from the router located in the basement up to my daughters room. With this device I just plugged it in, set up in my PC and ready to use.

Have been using this unit in a poor coverage area of a building with very good results over previous units. It always has a good signal with no drop outs like the previous units had, and setup was easy with Win 7

Bought this because my previous wireless USB was starting to die. I plugged this in and after the painless procedure of installing the drivers, the card was able to handle my network speed of about 100Mb/s.

I bought it on the suggestion of Best Buy employee to replace the built in card in my laptop. I worked perfectly as soon as it was installed (which was automatically done) and has performed perfectly ever since.

This product works exactly as specified. The wireless link to my home network via wireless extender and Netgear router was more or less a plug 'n play event.

I live in a 3k' home and have a great connection at the far end. I bought 2 and both are exceptional. One I did the push to connect and the other I did manually and both worked great.

I hesitated to buy this, because I've had similar in the past and they simply would not work, but this one worked first try after less than 5 minutes of set up and hasn't even had a hiccup sense being set up.

Not a bad product. It's not the best out there, but for the price, you can't beat it. I just needed something to get me by on my PC while I'm out of town. Works like it's supposed to!

I appreciate the fact there is dual band so its two networks in one, for quality of signal strength, I am very impressed. I was hoping this would replace the old satellite thing I got to increase strength.

This has increased my WiFi signal strength by shutting off my laptop's internal antenna that wasn't really strong enough for my needs. Switching over to this Adapter has really sped up my web surfing.

The directions were clear and the installation was easy. The NETGEAR - RangeMax IEEE 802.11n USB - Wi-Fi Adapter has performed great, and the option to attach it to the back of my CPU or on the desk in a cradle is very nice. I cannot vouch for the adapter's effectiveness through walls or on another floor since my computer is only 15 ft. away from the router, but I would suspect it would perform well with a strong signal present.
