There were several similar wireless adapters for the same price as this one. I chose this one after researching manufacturers and reading reviews. What attracted me to it is the ridges on the sides (you can see them in the photo) which are pretty easy to put on and take off. These objects have gotten so small that when they're smooth they're hard to grab, especially when they're next to another object plugged into the USB port next to them. Got this for my laptop after the built in wifi stopped working. It was a lot cheaper than buying a new laptop or taking it in for repairs. And if it fails, it's easy and inexpensive to replace. The signal is good and strong. I plugged it in, booted up the computer and WiFi came on immediately. And I know it's not built-in wifi because that switch is off and will stay off. Its small size allows me to pack my laptop without having to remove the adapter. It's hooked up next to the Logitech Unifying receiver for my mouse. One day I will have another USB port for bluetooth.
