    This Net Gear adapter works well for us. Easy to install and in a few minutes you can be surfing the web. We installed in on our old DELL computer which has no WIFI and it worked fine.

    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.

    Great up grade from having to run that old cable that is always in the way. The set up is also very simple when it comes to setting it up. Good way to upgrade your system to a wireless system.

    It's nice to be able to solve a problem with an older notebook computer without spending serious money. This plugged right in, found our wireless router, and was online in no time. Good solution.

    The pricing is comparable to all other brands but I'm very I'm very pleased with how easy the set-up is. A couple weeks ago i was sick and wanted to isolate myself from the rest of my family so i went to an upstairs bedroom put the adapter into the USB plug-in on the TV and watched Netflix for the next 36hrs with no streaming issues. The Wifi router is down one level and across the room, plus I have plaster walls and the adapter worked super

    Just using this for time to time use to get a rack mounted computer online and seems to do the job, very easy to install drivers. I like the ability to mount it to a monitor if so needed.

    If you have an older computer or laptop that isn't wireless-enabled, this device will do the trick. It requires no technical know-how, just plug it in and you are all set.

    I purchased this to provide my smart TV/DVD player with a wireless connection to my home network. Turns out that the device is not supported by the DVD Player, so I had to go another route for providing connection to it. IT still is a good item to use for random items around the house that do not have WIFI though. My last one was used for over 8 years before it finally died. It is a huge convenience to have around the house.

    Comes with software that when used, makes this extremely easy to just plug in and get going. I especially appreciate the extra cable that allows the length to be extended if needed.
