Review on OURLiNK 1200Mbps Dual Band Wireless Network Adapter with 5dBi Antenna - Ultimate Wi-Fi Dongle for Win/Mac by Todd Taniguchi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

When it works, it works well.

I've had it for about 6 months now. I have to say I have mixed feelings about it. When it works, it works very well, the wifi speed is much faster than my old one. However, it keeps crashing after a while. It usually crashes when the computer is asleep. There is a lot of information on the internet about this problem with USB wireless adapters. I've made all the suggested adjustments and haven't had any luck so far. My only option is to unplug and plug back in, which is a bit tricky in my use case as my USB 3 ports are on a card on the back of my computer - not easy to reach. So I plugged it into the USB 2 port on the front panel. This makes it easier to disconnect and reconnect, but the USB 2 port reduces the speed that can be achieved. I am currently looking for another solution.
