Review: Does the job I needed it to do, and it good value for money. - Purchased this for my PC as it doesn't have built in wi-fi and I was no longer going to be able to connect thru an ethernet connection as I was moving it to another room away from the router. I've just received the product and it was very easy to use and the driver to use the product was quickly installed on my pc. My router is downstairs at the front of the house, and I have moved my PC upstairs towards the back of the property, and the range is excellent so far. Whilst I've only used the product for about 45minutes, I have had a consistent full strength signal and doing an internet speed test, it doesn't show that I am loosing any speed despite being further away from the router. There were cheaper options available, but as I intend on using the product using the USB connection cable and having the receiver hanging directly out of a USB slot on my PC, this was definitely well worth the money.
Review: Honestly best upgrade I've done so far - As a fan of all things pc builds and a huge fan of mw2019(it's a FPS game) I strive on having good WiFi and if I don't well I start loosing my mind when I bought this I had recently upgraded WiFi which supports WiFi 6 and I figured my pc will be bottlenecked by the current WiFi card I had installed so I had gone ahead and bought this and my oh my this is a so far the best investment I've made into my current build (but there will be many more upgrades to come) but this is well worth your money if fits nice and tight the signal strength is amazing and the consistency of the WiFi speeds is amazing amazing stability amazing performance nothing can go wrong so if you're still on the fence about getting this get it even if you don't of the best of WiFi this will surely take more advantage of whatever WiFi you have and if you do go to upgrade your WiFi you won't have to make two purchases

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but not plug and play
*by S***I on 3 December 2025*

My old wifi adapter gave around 60Mb / 30Mb on a 157Mb / 34Mb connection. This one gives 154Mb / 31Mb, which is as good as possible on wifi two rooms away from an eero (urgh). My gripes are that it's not plug and play on Win 10 - you need to download the driver and run it first. Adapters I used before at least allow you to get online enough to download the driver, even if the connection is flaky, but this flatly refuses to even display the available networks without a driver. Tricky if you don't have another adapter to use and can't wire your connection. Also, the USB lead to the docker is quite stiff making positioning of the thing clumsy. Still, first impressions are than it works well under Win 10.
