Review on ASUS USB-N13 Wireless-N USB Adapter with Up to 300Mbps Wireless Data Rates - IEEE 802.11b/g/n USB 2.0 by Virot Nuankeaw ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product did not disappoint, the quality pleases.

A good device, but the software and drivers included in the kit are useless - they constantly bug out and conflict with the Wi-Fi settings of Windows. In order for the device to work properly, you need to download the drivers from the website of the chipset manufacturer on which it works. This is Ralink RT2870. There are drivers for both XP and 7, and 64-bit ones too! After installing these drivers, ASUS USB-N13 works on 5+! Establishes a 300 Mbps connection without any problems. I did not test the real data transfer rate, but it feels like when connecting via a 100-megabit LAN. When downloading files from FOS, the speed reached 3.5 MB / s, although as an indicator of real speed, this can be taken with great interference - it was measured in conjunction with a Zyxel keenetic router at a distance of about 8 m through 2 walls.

Pros
  • - Connection speed up to 300 Mbps - Good signal strength - Convenient "cable" with a fixed bend included
Cons
  • - The software that comes with the kit is terribly buggy and will conflict with the Windows Wi-Fi setup program
