But on a side note, when replacing my old linksys wireless adapter, it looked pretty bulky in comparison. Overall Review: Ok, i bought it to use with my Ngear dual band N and it does what its suppose to do, which is maintain a wireless N dual band connection.

Can't use it with window 7's wireless software, have to use it's software as far as i know kinda pricy compared to the cheaper ones but i wasn't going to go through risking getting DOA's or sketchy adapters, went for the best Not the most sexy adapter to use but it works according to what i wanted it to do. Pros: Dual Band, Wireless N, Works without disconnects. I'm not too worried about anyone piggy-backing on my service, as my neighbors aren't close enough to receive the signal, and the WPA2 security would stop them, anyway. Since it affected all of my 5GHz-band usage, I have to think that this issue is more router related, than any trouble with the N600 adapter, but if you're experiencing drop-out problems, it might be worth a try. I found that by broadcasting my N 5GHz-band SSID, which I like to keep hidden for security, all of my 5GHz-band devices (this adapter, a couple of smartphones & a tablet) became much more reliable. The N300 router with this N600 adapter really improved my transfer rates: with my 50Mbps internet service, I went from ~20Mbps with my old adapter to ~50Mbps with the N600 adapter and the N300 router.Īfter a couple of weeks I started getting frequent connection losses. Then my old G router died, and I got an N300 router. Overall Review: I received this a a gift to replace my 802.11g adapter, and it worked just fine with G-wireless. Again that really isn't an issue on the 5ghz band but since I'm about 10ft away from my router with 4 walls blocking the signal, I have to take this for what it is.Ĭons: Seems that connection drop-outs are all too common. Go to wikipedia if you want more knowledge on that subject.Īlso, I live in an apartment complex so the signals for the lower band can be affected sometimes by the 150 other radio signals flying around. One item to note is that 5ghz is a higher frequency, so putting this in another room may get lower xfer rates and worse connections especially considering the consistency of your walls. Sometimes is great, other days not so much. However, the 5ghz is hard to pick up sometimes. The 2.7ghz I get out of my $160 router works great. However, Win7 64-bit in my new rig seems to do quite better.
