This is my second review for this product. My first got three stars because I had big problems with it on Windows 8. It crashed my computer and I had to use a restore point to get it working again. It wasn't difficult, but it took a little while and was frustrating because it shouldn't have been necessary. I have now updated my drivers to the latest drivers for Windows 8. There are no drivers for Windows 8 on the CD that came with the adapter. You will need to go to the Netgear website and download them. Make sure you have the latest version installed for your computer to work properly. This adapter is fast. I've used it in various places in my house and I've had full signal everywhere. Up, down, it doesn't matter. I needed to move my computer to a location in the house where I didn't have access to a wired line. I was sure my speeds would be slow when using the adapter. I've been proven wrong using this Wi-Fi adapter.
