Review on ๐Ÿ“ถ Rosewill RNX-N150HG High Gain Wireless-N USB 2.0 Adapter (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) by Joe Drew

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Short life but cheap

I bought this device in search of a cheap wireless adapter because I'm tired of spending $60 on an expensive and deteriorating Linksys or Netgear adapter. a random range - decent range for the price (I'm seeing about 20 wi-fi connections right now, half of which are on full bands) antenna - comes with an antenna (just wanted to save people time posting a question) .*Disadvantages*Connection - After about 5 months of use, the connection always breaks off. So I have to unplug and plug back in. Sometimes it fails to connect to a full 5 track connection so I have to try disconnecting etc again. The shape is a brick, so about 2 USB drives are needed. Drivers are a godsend (for me at least), you can't just plug in and install the drivers that Windows 8 finds. You have to go to the main page and download and install the drivers manually.
