BrosTrend 1200Mbps USB WiFi Network Adapter for Laptop, Desktop PC of Windows 11/10/8/7, USB 3.0, Wireless Adaptador AC1200 Dual Band 5GHz/2.4GHz

Quick shipping, works great

I am using this for connectivity to my wi-fi modem connected to my router as I would have to run 200+ feet of cat.5 cable otherwise. It fully supports both 2g and 5g as it states and gets great speed.I'm running at 125 mbs to 180 mbs. It was so easy to install it's not funny as long as you have a drive to run the driver disk your set in about 30 or so seconds (network setup is another 10 for me you know passwords lmao). The connection never seems to drop like some wifi cards do, its steady and strong with all 5 bars filled consistently. For the pittance that this costs its a great value, I saved about $500 in cat 5 cable for the cost of what 20-30 bucks. :) I recommend this product to anyone who needs an easy but reliable wifi solution.

It works, comes with an easy setup mini-cd. A few things to criticize: 1. Despite it being advertised as usb 3.0, it does not work as a usb 3.0 device. I have tried installing the wifi adapter on multiple computers to test this. On the device manager, it says it is on a usb 3.0 port but does not go into "Mode: USB 3.0" Not a serious thing, but that's one of the key things I was looking forward to testing. 2. The device feels a lot lighter than it should for the size that it is, but that's just a design choice I feel is a bit weird. Other than those two, the device functions well and the utility gives a very detailed breakdown of the various details of your wireless network including your MAC Address, up and down speeds. and signal strengths. But if you are looking for it to blow your mind with its advertisement of "USB 3.0 PORT WORKS 10 TIMES FASTER THAN USB 2.0" than you will be disappointed.

I had been struggling with an old wifi dongle on one of my PCs. Windows updates took FOREVER. Decided to upgrade the WiFi from the old "G" dongle I had to this new one. It was completely plug and play on Win 10. I didn't need the driver disk, etc. I just plugged it in, re-entered my WiFi password and immediately had 150Mbps up/down (that is the speed of the connection into my house, so NO loss of speed from my router). My old dongle only got 10Mbps up/down... So far, this is a great product and value!

Got it to make my PC work with my wireless network without needing to buy an internal card. Installation is you plug it in and install the drivers from the mini-cd. After a couple minutes it was up and integrated into windows, so super easy to use. I have my wifi router right next to the computer, so can't speak for the range, but compared to a wired connection, no noticeable change in connection speed. The other day must have pumped about 10GB worth of video and audio through it back to back via internet with it being so responsive I had to check if it was still wired or wireless. It was wireless. At short range no difference observed for a 60mbps connection. I like that unlike an internal card with limited compatibility I can hook it into any machine with a USB port. Haven't had it for long yet, but so far it does exactly what I got it for to a high degree of excellence: remove the LAN wire from the PC without loss of connection speed so the printer can be a network resource that my other devices can print directly to. Works well, mission accomplished.

I received this at a discounted rate in exchange for an unbiased, honest review. I was really hoping this would help boost my internet speed but it didn't help at all. Our speed totally sucks here. These are the claims made: ULTIMATELY FAST USB WIFI ADAPTER WITH 1200MBPS WIRELESS SPEED: 867Mbps on 5GHz WiFi Band Or 300Mbps On 2.4GHz Wi-Fi Band, Excellent for Online Gaming, HD Video and High Quality Music AC WIRELESS ADAPTER WITH THE LATEST 802.11 AC DUAL BAND WIFI TECHNOLOGY: Extend your WiFi Range to Get Better Wireless Internet Connection WORKS WITH ANY WIRELESS ROUTER: Universal Compatibility with 802.11 AC/N/G/B/A WiFi Routers* UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY WITH WINDOWS PC OR MAC: Works with Desktop or Laptop of Windows 10/8.1/8/7/Vista/XP or MAC OS X 10.10/10.9/10.8/10.7/10.6 with this 2.4GHz and 5GHz USB Wireless Adapter USB 3.0 PORT WORKS 10 TIMES FASTER THAN USB 2.0: Works with the USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 Port of your Desktop, Laptop or MAC; PLUG AND PLAY with this WiFi Dual Band Adapter *** my results were that it is easy to hook up, no problems connecting to my wifi router, as far as speeding up....nope, exactly the same and still cuts out like it always does so it is my internet provider. This product may very well help or work in a different demographic area. It is very well made and I will keep using it just to see if maybe it actually improves in the future. It is compatible with my laptop which is running windows 8.1, haven't tried it on the desktop yet, that is upgraded to windows 10 but I never use it.

Well, I may end up having to post an updated review if the Adapter's performance ends up being inconsistent, as other reviewers have noted. But I just installed it, and so far it is working great. My laptop was dropped a very short distance - it seemed fine, but its wifi connectivity went out not long after that (and the laptop was less than a year old). After an expensive time on the phone w/NetGear customer service to no avail, I ended up trying this. Installation was easy and I got a great signal immediately. (I am in the same, but a different part of the room my router is in.) Works great so far, and I'm happy to have such an inexpensive fix to restore WiFi connectivity to my relatively new laptop!

I HATE this thing!!! With a passion hotter than a thousand suns..... It is simply the most shoddy, unreliable pile I have ever had to deal with. Why is it, it can sit there blinking away happily for the whole time while I'm not using the computer but within 30min of trying to do something it just stops working??? In fact, it just did it while trying to write this. When I notice I no longer have internet I have to go through a routine. 1) Try to jiggle it in the USB socket. There is so much play in this crappy device that you have to jiggle the contacts to make sure they are actually contacting. 2) If that doesn't work, I right click on "Troubleshoot Problems" which prompt tries to reset it. Usually that works. 3) If 2) doesn't work, then I wiggle it in the in the USB port again then try the troubleshoot. 4) Worse case is I have to eject it, blow on it to cool it off then try inserting it and starting all over. In the past with my old built in 2.4G adapter, I can walk away from my computer and come back and start working when ever I want. Not this damn thing. If I want to guarantee problems try that. Now, at minimum, I have to turn off the Wifi. But its better if I not only turn off Wifi but pull the thing out of the USB port altogether. But even then that only guarantees me about 29minutes before I start having problems. In the middle of a movie and it starts buffering... sure enough, the damn thing has stopped working. I'm taking online classes. This is so unreliable that when taking tests, the only way to ensure I don't get kicked off line is to eject it and use my old built it. So..... I found a new 5.8G capable WiFi card and as soon as it gets here I would rather rip my computer apart putting in than spend another damn second with this piece of cra@!
