Review on High-Speed Rosewill Wireless ๐ŸŒ Adapter for Superfast Internet Connections (RNX-N150PCX) by Johnathan Hegie

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great adapter for the price!

I bought this adapter with the intention of using my own antenna (High Gain Yagi) to connect WiFi to the workshop computer. Installation was very easy on Windows 7 64-bit and did the job perfectly. My old Linksys adapter put out 1 lane with the same antenna, but this adapter put out 3 and sometimes 4 lanes. I tried the antenna that came with the unit and it came with only one band, but my WAP is over 180ft from the shop and through 2 walls! This scenario could be repeated with slightly better performance with another antenna I have which is a 6dBi monopole. The adapter driver is installed along with a utility to measure and collect connection statistics. This was the most useful for me as I have a highly directional antenna and could point it for maximum gain. For those who are curious, I used a Deal Extreem ([.]) 2.4 GHz 16 dBi 16 dBi High Gain Wi-Fi/Wireless Network (RP-SMA) directional antenna.
