Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

After small dances with a tambourine, I achieved stable operation of the adapter. There are a number of nuances, like many here, at first there were many problems, wifi fell off, it was unstable, the speed was cut . Thankfully I read the reviews In order: If your computer (laptop) does not have USB 3.0 or higher, then this adapter will be of little use . I bought 2 adapters, one I put on a laptop in usb 3.0, the second in a usb 2.0 computer . Naturally, in the process of settings I tried all…

Pros
  • Speed
Cons
  • Antenna folds to one side only

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

Has some pros: the download speed compared to a wired connection has decreased from 90 to 70 Mb / s, Cons below: Windows 8.1 by the way: some Neanderthals, dollars, Such a moment with the installation of the device must be taken into account in advance.

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

Has some pros Fast installation, attractive appearance, rotatable antenna. Different cons: Slightly wide adapter, next to USB some flash drives and adapters cannot be inserted. Another 5g at first refused to see, it is decided by setting the router.

Disgusting quality, impossible to use.

After turning on, I hooked up to the 2.4 network, but did not want to connect to 5G. The solution on the manufacturer's website is to change the channel to 36. I regret that I bought this adapter, as soon as possible, I will replace it with another one. 5G worked for me on the channel where it was the only one. And every device in the house worked without problems with this wifi. In addition to this adapter, it simply does not see the network. Because of him, I had to change the channel where

Pros
  • plug and play. Connects to 2.4 GHz without problems
Cons
  • Doesn't work on all channels

Well done, but I wont buy any more.

In general, as a brand, TP LINK has more or less justified itself. Although I don’t understand developers who make quality - “just-just” Well, it’s hard for your division to make a MUCH MORE POWERFUL ANTENNA?!?!? Well, a slightly more powerful device!?!?!? WHAT X? And it would be - IDEAL! And so . I slightly shielded the network card with a metal PC case - and . they swam .

Pros
  • Installed fine under Win 10. Works quite stable (2 months so far), compared to the monster Tenda U that I had. Pretty good coverage.
Cons
  • Still, the instability of the connection to the computer in another room occasionally slips. Although the wall is thin in half a brick and plaster.

High-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

The apartment has a gigabit router of the same manufacturer, plus a signal amplifier, plus this adapter - all devices with 5 GHz support. In general, the situation in the house with the quality of the Wi-Fi connection has improved. The weak point was the laptop, it had to be kept on the wire, because. and the old router was only at 2.4 GHz and the laptop itself did not accept more than 2.4 GHz + interference from the walls and the speed was far from a fountain.

Pros
  • The adapter looks good visually in the laptop. 5 GHz signal catches, works on it, the laptop in the speedtest gives out the speed declared by the provider.
Cons
  • This adapter does not immediately catch the same 5 GHz signal after turning on the laptop, I don’t know why, but I had to wait until 2.4 changes to 5 GHz, because the laptop outputs no more than 10-15 megabits on 2.4 and this is a pain, That's why I bought an adapter. If someone knows the answer, please comment)

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

It catches well, BUT while downloading large files (games, movies, it doesn’t matter what and where) at a correspondingly high speed, at some point it just turns off and that’s it. It starts working again only after a physical shutdown, and then not immediately. It seems to have been fixed by installing the Realtek Chipset Driver from the TP-Link forum, now instead of shutting down, it just drops in speed to 0 for a few seconds. At least you can live now. It will not work without drivers at…

Pros
  • Inexpensive, compact
Cons
  • EXTREMELY unstable at high speed, won't work at all without drivers

You need the internet to install the drivers.

Despite the fact that the packaging and advertising talk a lot about easy installation, it's not just "plug and play". If you don't have an internet connection, you're out of luck. You must be able to connect to the Internet before using this. The instructions will take you to a website where you can download the appropriate drivers. My modern Windows 10 computer couldn't use this without downloading a driver. On the website, you enter a model number, which isn't the big number on the box, but…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Some bugs

But it doesn't work optimally

I recently bought a computer with a new built in 2.5GB wired network adapter, but I've found that it freezes/freezes at times. This is a known issue with the Realtek chipset. While waiting for new drivers and a solution, I decided to get a wireless adapter for the game since installing a new network card is not an option (no free space on the motherboard). The Netgear router has both frequencies. After the device was connected to the USB3.1 port, it was immediately recognized under Windows10. I

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • There are even more interesting possibilities.

antenna must be!

Bought Cudy's USB wireless adapter here at Revain but it wasn't perfect. I would travel and suddenly "page cannot be displayed". I unplugged it from the USB hub and plugged it back in and after 5 minutes there was internet, but that got annoying quickly. My office with my servers is on the other side of the house, there are multiple walls between the router and the desktop, so Cudy will probably work for most people. The maximum I got was 585 Mbps. Sent back and bought. 780 Mbps (sometimes 833)

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • damaged
