Review on ๐Ÿ“ถ NETGEAR AC600 Wi-Fi USB 2.0 Mini Adapter: Dual Band WiFi Stick for Desktop PC - A6100-10000S by Chris Sweeton

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Useless to me - USB network adapter

When my built-in WiFi card failed, I looked for a replacement for the external USB. Tried TP-Link T2U Plus which worked pretty well but had a large high gain antenna. Decided to try this Netgear A6100 for smaller footprint and better speed. Unfortunately, this adapter was significantly slower than TP-Link. The best I could get was around 60Mbps while TP-Link T2U Plus gave me 160Mbps. I decided to stop at TP-Link and live with its antenna. And that's half the price of this Netgear. At least the Netgear is small - it won't take up much room in my parts box, where it's definitely going to stay for the foreseeable future.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not sure

Worked as promised, but be very careful itโ€™s fragile. The cover came apart very easily.
