Review on 🔌 IO Crest SY-ADA24025 USB 2.0 N150 Wireless G Travel Pocket Router Network Adapter, White - Compact and Powerful WiFi Solution by Paul Dahl

If I had seen other reviews before ordering this adapter I would have read them skipped. The device offers minimal security encryption and minimal SSID setup. The device only accepts 5 digit passphrase and you can only change the SSID numbers, you cannot change the name. Also, the device does not support non-broadcast SSIDs. The manual says in one small spot: don't try to use the device in hotspot mode unless you're using the AC adapter. Attempting to operate the device in access point mode will end up rendering the device completely inoperable, even as a wireless network adapter. Before the device was hacked, I could use it as an access point with an extremely limited range. But as mentioned in previous reviews, the connection kept dropping. I don't recommend this device unless you're looking for an AC to USB power adapter. This is the only part included in this product that actually works for everything. If you're looking for a portable wireless pocket device, try D-Link's DAP-1350 Wireless N Pocket Router. It's about the same size as the Syba, but works like a router, access point, or wireless network adapter; All three modes can be operated via USB power or via the supplied power adapter. Although it costs three times more, it is ten times better and lasts much longer.
