I was tinkering with a Linux desktop where the system didn't recognize the internal wifi card. I plugged this into an USB port and the system recognized it right away. Handy device to have around.

Works as advertised, perfect for the Rigol DH0804 oscilloscope.Be aware, you can't just plug it into the USB and expect it to work, you need to follow the youtube videos to make it work. You need an USB hub and a keyboard (you can use your touch screen as a mouse), you need to access the settings, use the youtube videos if unsure how to do this, but if you do it right, it's done within 1-5 minutes.Works as a charm.

Asus laptobum icin tam aradığım cihaz. Şimdilik memnunum.PC eskiydi wifi driver eski olduğu için başka cihazlardan 100-110 hız alırken pcmden hız 2-3 mbps modem yanında dahi. Pcyi baslattigimda bağlantı kopukluklari hız düşüklüğü wifi görememe vb. Sorunlar vardı.İlk başta taktım cihazı tanıdı fakat kullanamadım. Aygıt yöneticisinden kontrol ettiğimde kurulu gözüküyordu, eski wifi driver ı kullanım dışı yaptım. Ve tplink USB yi aktiflestirdim. Hız oda içerisinde 70-80. Günlük kullanım için 20-30 mbps hiz bile yeterli zaten.Mini olması da büyük avantaj. Günlük kullanımlar için ideal diyebilirim

Muy útil no tiene buena recepción de internet tu computadora o laptop, fácil y rápido de instalar y cualquier cosa tienes la página donde acudir para descargar el software o dudas que tengas de instalación, hay videos y respuestas fáciles de encontrar.Mientras tengas la información del sistema operativo, el tipo/versión de software que tengas (windows) y el nombre del adaptador a la mano, con eso ayuda a que la instalación sea la correcta para que notes el resultado en tu ordenador.Muy recomendado!

Building my PC, I forgot to put install the wifi antenna that came with the motherboard. Instead of taking the entire computer apart to install what I forgot, I found this easy option. It's easy to install and works well for a wifi adapter. I would definitely recommend it for the price.

The internal wi-fi unit in my ancient Dell Latitude E4300 stopped working so I got this to get back online without having to use a cable connection. This works and isn't expensive. I use the laptop as a backup to the main home computer if it's tied up or if I'm on the road (of course I use my VPN and security suite!)..

I got this because of it's size. Most wireless adapters are so huge and I've never understood it, personally, as I assumed it was possible to make smaller antennae these days for WiFi. In any case, I needed an external adapter because my laptops internal wifi was on the fritz (more on that later). It works like a charm so far. I will update this review if I have problems, but installation was a cinch. Just installed the software, plugged in the thingy, and boom. Amazing reception and, surprisingly enough, my average download speeds have gone up by 2mbps (I used to get about 8-9mbps depending, now I get 10-11). It has better range than my older full-size adapter too. So, no issues so far.It's worth mentioning, though, that the reason I had to purchase this was because my laptop has an Atheros modem in it. I'm sure many of you out there have run afoul of these wireless adapters. For some people, they work fine for years with no issues, but then for some people they constantly drop connection, go much slower than they should, have terrible range, or basically just become such a problem you have to stop using the internal wifi. So, if any of you are curious why, I eventually found out why: Atheros wireless cards have a glitch that, for some reason, has never been fixed whereby they attempt to turn on their own signal diversity system by piggybacking onto your computer's bluetooth antenna which it thinks is another wifi receiver Needless to say, a wifi connection cannot piggyback onto a bluetooth connection, so it crashes the modem or will cause major connectivity issues. For some people, turning on their bluetooth and leaving it on will stop this, but for most, it still doesn't stop the glitch, so the only permanent solution is to literally sever the physical connection inside your computer between the bluetooth antenna and the frame which means no more bluetooth. So if you ever wondered what was up with your Atheros modem, there it is.
