Images in this review - Reviewed in Canada on December 26, 2024Style: Wi-Fi 6 | AX1800Verified PurchaseGenerally very easy to install, except it doesn't install by itself as advertised. Perhaps my desktop is too old I have to go into devices to look it up. Ever since I started using the wireless adapter it has been very good and signal is very strong, except that on occasion I get bumped out of the internet and have to either restart the computer or go into trouble shooter to fix it. Will see in the longer term if it is habitual.

Its plug and play, installation CD is provided but I didnt get a chance to open it. So far I'm satisfied. Its tiny Product design easily fit.

Images in this review - Reviewed in Canada on December 31, 2023Style: AC1300Verified PurchaseMy experience with this antenna has been generally positive. The ease of installation pleasantly surprised me, even for someone who is not a tech expert. When it comes to quality, the antenna offers solid construction and stable connectivity. Transmission speeds are fast, providing a smooth online experience, whether streaming, online gaming or working from home.
Among the highlights, the consistent performance and signal range are impressive. However, the design could be more compact to avoid any clutter on the neighboring USB port. A small compromise for peak performance. For optimal use, be sure to position the adapter out of the way to avoid interference. Regular driver updates are recommended to ensure optimal performance.
- Reviewed in Canada on November 6, 2024Style: AC1300Verified PurchaseI haven't experienced any issue with it so far. The signal is stable and the speed is quite decent
- Reviewed in Canada on November 20, 2024Style: Wi-Fi 6 | AX1800Verified PurchaseI bought this a while ago and it was working great until one day it started doing exactly what my older model TP-link external wifi adapter did in the past: my wifi connection upon starting up my PC just does not work. Then a couple days later, it begins to disconnect and reconnect constantly until I restart my PC. So, I got a replacement sent to me by TP-link once it fully stopped working (USB cable simply not working).
Believe it or not the replacement is now going through EXACTLY the same life cycle. I usually don't write reviews for products, but when 3/3 of every TP-link adapter I've owned in the past decade does the SAME exact thing, I do not think this product is worth your money. If you can, just bite the bullet and buy a motherboard that supports Wi-Fi connections itself.
