A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

Do not install native firewood and you will have a decent speed subject to the following rules: 1. The air is not polluted by neighbors 2. Use a Mikrotik wifi router or something similar that does not cut speed. 3. You have a normal fast Internet and do not share the speed with your neighbors! In Latvia, GPON each client connects to its own port on the OLT, as a result, even if there are 100 apartments in the house - each one sits on its own port and does not share the port speed with its…

Pros
  • windows 7 itself found firewood on it, along with my point it catches 3 more others, since I don’t live in an apartment building and not in a city where there is 30 wifi on the air, as a result, in the speedtest, a maximum of 160 Mbps is pressed in tandem with Mikrotik RB2022UiAS-2HnD- IN but also tested directly through GPON ONT alcatel lucent i-240w-a the same 160 Mbps maximum, in a torrent it presses about the same. By wire speed: 420 in speedtest and 400 in torrent
Cons
  • There is none of them

A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

Its pros: Cost and ease of installation/configuration. I am the owner of V1, it works amazingly on the Atheros chip, there are no questions. With its cons: After a while I bought a second adapter, it turned out to be V2 on a Realtek chip, a terrible adapter that refuses to work stably, always loses connection, sometimes does not connect

An unattractive product, an unprofitable purchase.

After dancing with a tambourine, drivers were installed, the speed was 2-5 mb. Sec, when on a laptop at the same distance 20-25 mb. Sec. I ran a twisted-pair cable for 20 meters, and lo and behold, the speed became normal

For lovers Pros: If you have nothing to do or you are a puzzle lover, then this is your card, only for (version 1). With window 7 no questions Has cons: If you have nothing to do or you are a puzzle lover, then this is your card, only for (version 1). With window 7 no questions

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I chose PCI in order not to close the vidyuhi fan. For a stationary computer, which will be a maximum of 1 wall from the router. Copes with the assigned tasks. HD transmits to the router and from the router to the TV. Specially taken to the classmate router TP-Link 1042.

How could such a bad product be made?

I used the V2 adapter, installed the realtek driver, after removing the proprietary one. I really do not recommend buying.

Pros
  • Low price. This is one of the cheapest adapters at the time of purchase.
Cons
  • Sometimes ping in games rises to 500-600ms. When watching videos and downloading, the speed is low, much lower than when checking with a speedtest. From time to time, the adapter loses connection, it happens like this: all wireless networks are displayed with a zero signal level, after a while everything becomes normal. Replacing the router does not change the situation. There is no way to "automatically" install any drivers other than branded ones, you have to do everything manually, since Windows does not consider the driver from Realtek suitable.

Great card. Tested on win7, 8, 10, Ubuntu. Firewood only needs to be pulled separately on Win7 from the tp-link site. The installer will do everything there. At the moment, the month without breaks plows as it should. There are no complaints about the device.

Pros
  • Not expensive. Stable work. Low-profile plug included.
Cons
  • No.

The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

without network settings and with native antennas, the speed is terrible, jumps from 5 Mbps to 20 Mbps, LAN speed 60 Mbps. I replaced the antennas with 8 dBi TL-ANT2408CL, native 2 dBi. After setting up the router, replacing the antennas and changing the channel, the speed keeps stable around 54 Mbps, the maximum on speedtest. Net was 64 Mbps. The drivers are native, I did not install the utility from the disk. I bought this device for 14€, OS windows 7.

Pros
  • easy installation, configuration, inexpensive.
Cons
  • weak signal.

The right product for me, there were no problems.

An excellent model if finished with a file. We immediately move the disk in the kit to the trash. Download Qualcomm AR9287 drivers for your system. I downloaded from here: Through the device manager, we feed the new driver to the card and begin to rejoice. If the Internet periodically falls off, you can disable the device from turning off in order to save electricity in Power Management

Pros
  • On Win7-64, the speed is 10-12Mbps over the local network
Cons
  • On the drivers from the disk, the speed is 1Mbps, when transferring files over the network, the wireless mouse gets dull.

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

There were a lot of bad reviews for this adapter, but I didn’t find anything better (according to reviews) in this price category. Decided to take a chance and buy. Installed the driver from the disk that comes with the kit. All. It has been working like clockwork for almost a month now. The speed does not cut, no gaps, nothing like that they write in other reviews.

Pros
  • Works stably on win 8.1
Cons
  • Have not found

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

Moved the old 2022 PC to the country, for games, to play Tanks, YouTube, Movies Online and everything else. But in the country there is no wired Internet, but there is a phone with unlimited Internet from the greens, the option for the tariff is called: Mega Unlimited. Well, it was decided to buy a WIFI adapter, I looked at different options, but it was a reasonable decision to buy this one, since the phone cannot distribute more than it can receive itself, and this is for July 2022 for my…

Pros
  • 1. Works with Win 10 2. No need to worry that it will fall off and have to be re-plugged 3. In general, good quality of the device 4. Works, already good 5. The box says that for Windows 8 / 8.1, but 10 also finds everything itself
Cons
  • 1. After installation in a PC, the computer did not see the device at first, then it turned off, turned itself off and after turning it on everything worked, but at that moment the cable Internet was also connected to search for drivers 2. Time to install everything 3. It fits into the slot, but you can’t screw it to the case (personally, for me, the place of attachment does not match by 1 cm, and not just a hole, but that gap of 1 cm between the bar where to screw it and the device itself, but this is not critical

Low quality, I will not buy this anymore.

Does not want to work normally with any official driver or with any. No joke, I bought USB WiFi from ali-express for 115, it works better, more stable and faster than this network card. Disabled all power savers, didn't help. Got pros: Easy to install and configure, can transmit picture and sound to smart tv over the air Got cons: Constant interruptions in the Internet connection and driver dumps, no shielding of the chip Strongly cuts speed

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall good, but expected more.

Its pros: Does not occupy the usb connector, there are no frequent crashes like on "whistles". Has cons: Compared to 822n, the speed dropped by 3-4 times with a signal of 70%.

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

Before that, I used USB - I constantly had to poke, the signal was weak. This device is a guarantee of stability. Yes, he was not for a bunker with reinforced concrete walls, but in the apartment and in the yard 50-100m from the house (!) He caught a signal. The price is very affordable and he definitely works out his money without bringing a headache. I wanted to give him a minus for something, so that the Chinese would not be deceived, but, honestly, there’s nothing :( and we are still…

Pros
  • Plugged it in and forgot. 1) No interruptions in work; 2) The simplest installation; 3) Good speed; 4) Long distance.
Cons
  • 1) There is a signal drop: there will be no signal through 3 half-meter walls (or 2 and elevator doors). Through 2 walls a signal drop on 2 sticks. In neighboring rooms (1 wall), the signal can fall on 1 stick.

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

After reading terrible reviews, I doubted the purchase of this device for a very long time, but then I decided to take it, and if there were any connection problems, you can always return it to the store within 2 weeks. First of all, I arranged the price of this device, for 750. we get a dual-stream adapter with speeds up to 300 Mb / s. When I connected it to my computer, I didn’t even have to install firewood, everything determined itself and worked, I just had to connect to my network and…

Pros
  • Price, connection and connection speed, communication quality.
Cons
  • They just don't exist!

What did I pay for? This product is a failure.

tried all channels. I tried all possible drivers (stock in win 8.1, from the site of the tp-link, the latest from the site of atheros, the chip manufacturer). tried all modes bgn, b, g, n, with different speeds. None of them managed to achieve normal work. In idle time with a 100% signal, there is no loss, but you just need to load the network a little - turn on the stream, origin, or music, the ping becomes ~ 200 and the loss is up to 50%. Maybe of course I was unlucky, but I do not advise…

Pros
  • They are not here
Cons
  • Wild loss in use. Direct visibility of the router in three meters. When you start the origin or any stream, the loss is up to 50%.

Not worth the money, would not recommend this product.

So, if you have an adapter on an Atheros chip, there will be no problems, but if, like mine, Realtek RTL8192EE, then we do the following (I took the previous review and added a little): 1. Remove completely native firewood, reboot 2. We go to the device manager, right-click on the network adapter / ate driver / search for drivers on this computer / select a driver from the list of available drivers on the computer / in the left column, where "Manufacturer" scroll down to Realtek Semiconductor…

Pros
  • After setup it works great!
Cons
  • Requires demonic dances with tambourines and a boyan. If not for the anonymous comment from August 21, I would have burned the damn device. Thanks, anonymous!

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

The adapter completely suited me, on Win 7 x64 the drivers themselves pulled up what they needed (do not install from the disk !). The speed and reception are confident, it works in a pair of TL-WR1043ND, it shows full reception through the wooden floor and layers of insulation (provided that the antennas are correctly positioned). The price is not high for this adapter. Communication is not lost! Additionally, in the properties of the adapter, I turned off power management so that there would…

Pros
  • - compact map - 300 mb/s, MIMO support - price - easy installation on Win 7
Cons
  • - possibly weak antennas
