Not bad at first, but lost popularity in the last month

This item wasn't great when I first bought it, but since I got it in February 2019 while building a new computer, I've had other thoughts building but I had a chance to test it when it was new. His download speed on the 2.4GHz setter peaked at 40MB and never surpassed it, and 5GHz dropped to 30MB while my laptop was on the same network, hitting 110MB on 2.4GHz and at 5 GHz 90 megabytes. It wasn't scary enough, but it wasn't good either, but I put up with it because I needed a Wi-Fi card that works now. Since last month his advantage has really gone downhill, his 2.4ghz network connection doesn't stay online it's flickering so i switched to the 5ghz setting and his max download is now 11 megabytes and downloads when i need them for the game server. less than 1 megabyte, which is terrible. To allow for a clear comparison, this card downloads a 13 gigabyte game update that loads at 2.7 MB, while my laptop loads at 11.5 MB. It was ok at first but still not worth it but now based on my experience with this product I definitely don't recommend it to anyone. At the time of writing I am in the process of ordering a new card from a different brand as it is very unusable.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Speed
