Review on πŸ”Œ Linksys WUSB6300: Powerful Dual-Band AC1200 Wireless USB 3.0 Adapter in Sleek Black Design by John Wells

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great when it works

Updated: see below Super fast near top speed when it works But it doesn't always work. (Problems with Windows 10 Insider builds). I understand this is a driver issue. And I'm really sad about that because when it works, it's one of the best wireless adapters I've ever used. Note on Linksys: compatible with and written for are two different things! We need authentically written drivers for Win 10! I was able to block the installation of an updated Microsoft driver from the device panel and roll back the driver for a generation. Then block driver updates using a policy setting in GPE. The Windows Fall Update driver is absolute garbage. This should only be a problem for those who participate in the Insider program. I have NOT received a driver update on a Windows 10 Pro platform on the standard schedule. It would be nice if Linksys would ship the driver directly to Microsoft. Excellent support. I solved the problem myself, but I am reassured that they contacted me in the first place.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Has bug
