Review on WiFi adapter TP-LINK TL-WN727N, white-black by Adam Kotula ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality product, the price is commensurate with the quality.

The main thing for me was the distribution of wi-fi Internet from acomputer (with a wired Internetcomnnected to it) through this adapter to a smartphone (that is, use it as an access point). Procedure: 1) plug in the adapter (preferably through the bundledcomrd), DO NOT install the drivers from the disk - we don't have the adapter yet 2) if you don’t know what version you have (it is written at the bottom of the box next to the second barcode, like v.4), then go Control Panel\System and Security\System -> Device Manager 3) we find our adapter (it will be with an exclamation point, because without drivers), we poke 2 times on it, then Information - equipment ID.compy, google 4) if you know the chipset manufacturer (they differ from version to version), then go to in the lower rightcomrner Adapter version - chipset manufacturer TP-LINK TL-WN727N v1 - Ralink TP-LINK TL-WN727N v3 - Ralink TP-LINK TL-WN727N v4 - MediaTek TP-LINK TL-WN727N v4 (CN? ) - Realtek You can download the driver from the link a little higher in the same place, the link is of the form - windows driver. In my case (v.4) it was You can download it by simply entering your name, e-mail and captcha. 5) download, install along with the proposed software (yes, it looks somewhat outdated, but this is not particularly important), then be sure to restart thecomputer 6) rebooted and voila, you just need to tweak a bit - SSID - set automatically (this SSID will then be required from you by thecomnnected device - remember its name) ICS WAN - your wired Internetcomnnection Channel - any Authentication - WPA2-PSK (WPA-PSK mode (pre-shared key, shared key) - the role of the authentication server is performed by the access point itself) Encryption - AES WPA-PSK key - enter, remember (it is also registered on client wireless devices), it will need to be entered when creating a wi-ficomnnection on the device I set up all this in Ad-Hoc mode, because I only needed the Internet for one device.

Pros
  • Price. Ability to configure as an access point - see comment.
Cons
  • Didn't find it.
