In order to play 4K content on my brand-new television, I needed to purchase this component and install it on a DLNA server in my home. The blue screen of death appears in Windows 7 whenever you make an attempt to install the driver from the disk. Downloading the driver from the office's website yielded the "First Released" version, which was as out of date as a mammoth. It was discovered that it does not provide support for the 802.2ac mode. The official forum has been abandoned, with posts dating back to 2022. After contacting technical support, they provided me with a link to a beta version of the driver that was released two years ago. This version included an 8022022ac mode; however, the adapter categorically declined to establish a connection to the router when it was used in this mode. The remainder of our conversation was reduced to the repeated assertion that the problem is in my devices, which do not allow this miracle of high technology to work. In response, I modestly remarked that I had a top-of-the-line Keenetic router, Sony flagship TVs, an Onkyo AV receiver, and a Huawei smartphone. They operate flawlessly at speeds of up to 867 Mbps without exhibiting even a single hiccup. The answer was enchanting - "Turn them off." Do I need to turn off the home theater system that cost me $500 in order to let this bauble work by itself? I found out the chipset model by self-picking, downloaded the native driver from the Realtek website (2022, I should note), and finally connected it at a speed of 867 Mbps while operating at 5 GHz. The celebration came too soon. The device, which is the only one connected to my network, disappears intermittently from the visibility zone of the router before reappearing in the same startling fashion. The housing gets noticeably hot to the touch, which raises the possibility that it overheats. The device functions consistently within the 2.4 GHz band. However, despite this, it has been ranked as one of the fastest available on the market! In most cases, the issue is not the expenditure of some 1,500 dollars but rather the loss of a week's worth of time and the inconvenience of having to move an external hard drive from a computer to a television. It is especially offensive that this product has a high score on the market and positive reviews from owners who have not utilized it in the 5 GHz band, as both of these factors contribute to the product's high score. And it was because of them that I decided against investing in proven acquisitions made by Asus and Zyxel.
