Normal quality, you can use it.

I do not know how things are with competing device drivers, but I recommend purchasing this one only if you have some knowledge in the field of networking. If you want to buy a device "I plugged it in, pressed the 'next' button and it all worked" - it's better to consider other options. Different pros: As for the hardware, there are no complaints about the device: the signal is very worthy (although inferior to the built-in WiFi on Asus motherboards), it is not lost. Speed ​​is fine too. Its cons: Terrible drivers. I bought it to organize a software access point (it was undesirable to connect the main computer through a router for a number of reasons). As a result, I became very sad when I discovered software that was almost similar to that used on the Wi-Fi built into the ancient ASUS P4P800E Deluxe. And this software at one time shed a lot of my tears and sweat. If someone plans to purchase for such purposes (Soft AP) - I advise you to immediately download the latest drivers from Ralink RT2870 and the Connectify utility. Only this bunch managed to normally share the VPN connection with the Internet. Built-in is also possible, but much longer and less stable. And this applies to both WinXP and Win7 x64
