Review on πŸ”Œ High-Speed LoveRPi Nano Dongle 802.11n with 2.4GHz 150Mb WiFi for Raspberry Pi and Windows 10 IoT by Rod Evans

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for a small NAS setup but with some caveats.

Bought to power my Linux NAS, this little beast works perfectly - most major Linux distributions seem to recognize it without you having to download a non-free module to add it to your kernel . One caveat is that at 150Mbps when 3 people access it at the same time it can be a bit choking - one person is transferring a large file to the NAS and two are streaming HD video from the NAS, well you're stuttering the video. Mine has since moved to a Raspberry Pi, which does less stressful tasks where it works well, and I've broken down and moved the NAS and connected it to gigabit ethernet.

Pros
  • Pretty to look at
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
