Inexpensive, reliable, fast!

So I was a big hater of anything wireless. I would put gigabit switches throughout the house and use Cat5e or Cat6 cabling. I had multiple devices such as media players, gaming consoles, laptops, tablets, smartphones, you name it. When we moved to a new location it wasn't possible/realistic to use cables so I switched. Most devices were already connected to Wi-Fi at this point, like my game console, laptop, etc. The only thing I kept wired was my file server/virtualization machine. But when the server is next to the router, it's in the living room, which I just wanted to get rid of. So, I got this wireless adapter, and lo and behold, I get full speed on 5 GHz. Even after moving to the basement. m is still approaching the maximum speed and very good reception. I'm surprised how well this works. I don't notice high CPU usage or interrupt stalls, response times are very good, and file transfers are overall fast and stable. So no complaints. The only downside is that you need a CD/DVD to download or get the drivers online. Chipset Realtek 8812BU if you want to get drivers from somewhere else. All in all a very good product!
