I put the unopened box on the equipment shelf and left it there for a while. When I opened the box I noticed that the ALFA sticker on it had previously been peeled off (see attached photo).

Not for pentesters of network products

I rarely write reviews, but I feel the need to review this product so security professionals don't make the same mistake I did.

Not for Pentester USB Network Adapter

I rarely write reviews but I feel I should review this product lest security professionals make the same mistake I did. This product is the true definition of "new doesn't mean great".

However, I've decided to use this version of the AC 1900 for my upcoming wireless pentest (due to the hype I've heard about it) and regret not paying attention to the reviews from others here.

Nothing special about computers and accessories

No difference to those with two antennas. Same signal level as dual modules. At least this one stayed on and didn't turn off from time to time. I have a WiFi cable right in front of my house and I'm looking for a solution to connect it! I can literally go beyond 50 feet from my location and intercept a very strong Wi-Fi cable from my phone, but Wi-Fi modules with large antennas can't do anything but pick up a weaker signal or drop a better connection. My building paid a flimsy telecom companyโ€ฆ

  • So far satisfied

  • Will write later

lightning fast! Excellent assortment! But not for everyone.

I'm using this wifi adapter with Linux Mint 18 and it's great. If you're buying this for Linux, be sure to install the drivers. I'm using drivers from zebulon2/rtl8814au on GitHub. I suspect some Linux users left negative reviews because they had driver issues. The drivers are easy enough to install for most Linux users, but if the terminal intimidates you, I recommend checking out this GitHub repo before you buy it. With that in mind, here's my rating: The range is excellent. This adapterโ€ฆ
