Works perfectly. Easy setting.

I didn't have an ethernet cable long enough to connect to my second computer in my office, so I ordered one to connect to my phone as I'm also off WiFi -Reach am! Installs easily. The installation file is attached to the antenna (like a USB stick). Works perfectly!

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Negative present

Everyone has the same Mac number

All these singles have the same Mac number. If you use this in range with another bluetooth module with the same mac number nothing else will work. These Mac#s must be unique worldwide. They just bought a number and put it on thousands of those keys.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Makes me angry

Wi-Fi Genius Key

Works great and the setup has some very smart features. First, the driver is "embedded" in the drive/dongle, making it easy to use without the need to download a driver. to find the "Disk" on your computer and run the "Auto Installer" program. "Network/Wi-Fi icon" in the Windows toolbar area and you can choose between "Wi-Fi 1 or Wi-Fi 2". You must select "Wi-Fi 2" as this is a new device adapter installation. What makes it "idiot proof" to me is that the user doesn't have to go into theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Compatibility

Good for use with Bluetooth on a PC

Comes with installation CD, installation was pretty easy once you have a basic understanding of how to use windows. I bought to see if the wired wireless CarPlay works but it doesn't work. I should point out that I have an aftermarket universal CarPlay receiver that is likely to be badly affected. I recommend it as a cheap Bluetooth adapter for your PC, but it doesn't seem to work for my PlayStation 4.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

The wi-fi dongle is brilliant

Works great and the setup has some extremely smart features. You need to take care of downloading the driver. All you have to do is find the "floppy disk" on your computer and run the "automatic installer". for a second. Anyway, click on the "Network/WLAN" icon in the Windows toolbar area and you will be given the choice of "WLAN 1 or WLAN 2". You must select "wifi 2" because it is a new device installation adapter. What makes it "idiot proof" to me is that the user doesn't have to go into theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

DO THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION!

[AC600 Dual Band USB Wi-Fi Adapter - No Antenna]TLDR; I'm happy with the purchase, but it's cheap for a reason! It's safe to buy but read my helpful review. When you first plug it into Win10, it behaves like a miniature flash drive, but behaves like a 7MB (not GB) floppy drive with a Windows driver. Do that! 1) COPY (do not cut) the entire content. 2) Create a new folder on your desktop. 3) Name the folder "Wavlink USB Driver" or similar. 4) Paste the copied content into this folder. 5) Keepโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
