Review on TP-Link TL-WN821N N300 USB Wireless WiFi Network Adapter for PC, Compatible with Windows/Linux/Mac OS by Hanh Bach ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, best quality.

I have 2 of these. I bought the first one about two years ago (v.4), plugged it into the computer (win7, 32bit), included the disk from the kit, loaded everything and everything went like clockwork and is still running. The second one (v.6) was needed for the 2nd computer (win7, 64 bits), and remembering how easy everything went a couple of years ago, I bought the same one then. I plugged it into the computer, turned on autoload from the disk and . not a fig. Everything was installed, but the utility does not start either from the computer or from the button (damn, they came up with the same 2 minutes to press this button). The signal is also not observed, it seems that the antenna is some kind of dead one. Diagnostics sins for a malfunction in the device, offers to ate the firewood. I downloaded firewood, all versions available for Windows from the offsite site. Rearranged with the utility and without it, with and without admin rights, turned off the network through connections and turned on wn821 - FIG! I think that's all, dead bean. I was going to do a return, but before that it was useful to scour the Internet on this topic and found that the utilities needed to turn on WLAN auto-tuning and put it on auto mode. Set. Nothing again. Once again I got into the utility programs and there it turned out that there were two WLAN programs (one in 2022, the other in English), turned on the second one, set auto-tuning and everything went. Damn, they at least for dummies in the recommendations would indicate the need for such settings. And then put the disk, press the button for 2 minutes . Really half a day the brain blew itself up. And so, the route is in the next room, I don’t know about games, but the Internet rustles, online video is on. All for now.

Pros
  • works and works
Cons
  • settings, recommendations for settings
