Netgear Nighthawk Ac1900 Wi-Fi USB Adapter (A7000)|More Bandwidth Capacity When Downloading and Uploading Data to and from The Wireless Network|Faster Connections to More Wi-Fi Networks - Black

Purchased it for 3.2k, 10hr delivery, totally happy.Been using it for a couple of days and it works fabulously (installed drivers from online site). My laptop's internal card was damaged and repair would have costed around 7k so I chose this product.Though a little big in size it is amazing. I use netgear 300n router and the router is at a level below my room and the speed is awesome compared to my internal wifi card when it was working and my phone oneplus3t.This product is definitely worth it if you want the signal to reach farther than 10m or packed complexes. My router transmits 45mbps when you're beside it. My phone picks up 26mbps and the receiver picks up 32mbps whereas my internal card used to pick up around 21mbps.My internal WiFi card is Intel AC 3160. It's definitely an upgrade from older laptop's internal cards.Pros:Amazing receiving capacity.Easy install.Magnetic cradle for sloppy surfaces.WPS button.Sleek design.Cons:Little big in size.Looks delicate.

Advantages:1) you can place it on the table top & fold out the antenna to get the maximum reception.2) if your USB 3.0 port is behind your PC, You won't have issue with antenna placement.3) Supports both 5.0 GHz & 2.4 GHz wifi4) Easy to install & did not had to disable any services to get continuous connection as mentioned in other reviewsDisadvantages:1) Costly for wifi adapter; If you only want to use this with laptop, You can go with TP-link Nano USB adapter which supports 5 GHz. It will save you almost 2/3 of the cost of this product.2) plastic body feels delicate & i am not sure if it will survive the fall from the table top3) i ordered this product in May 2020 & the date of import was November 2018Works find for me at able to get 190 Mbps download speed using USB 3.0;P.S: Make sure to connect this to USB 3.0 which will be blue color: While older USB will not have this color;

After upgrading my wifi router to a TP-LINK WIFI 6 AX1900 the next thing was to upgrade my laptops outdated wifi adaptor. So after reviewing everything I choose this one and I must admit it did the work flawlessly.Easy to install.Great speed improvement and range.I even attached the screenshot of the speed test before turning on netgear and after turning it on.Now I can fully utilise my internet plan.So I vouch that you can go for it, you won't be disappointed.Note: You should have a high speed plan & obviously a router that supports 2.4ghz & 5 ghz channels too to get speeds above 150Mbps. So consult your internet provider for that.

So, purchased this Wi-Fi adapter mainly for Nvidia gamestreaming from my laptop to my shield tablet and smartphone(moonlight gamestream)because I didn't want to invest heavily in a dual band 5ghz router. I was initially dissapointed because the driver software does not support wireless access point mode,only receiver mode is available. Took a fair bit of tinkering in the driver settings but finally figured out that by limiting the device to 802.11 a/n and creating an ad-hoc Wi-Fi direct network with some third party software like connectify,I could get this adapter to broadcast a 5ghz Wi-Fi signal..now I have this set-up purely for game streaming and it's flawless, interference free, almost lag free(16ms average) 1080p 60 fps game streaming,can do 4k60 no problem on a device that supports it ! However downside here is you can't connect to a 2.4ghz Wi-Fi using the adapter in this mode,and switching to 802.11 auto mode changes broadcast channel to 2.4ghz which is not ideal..So am using the integrated adapter with my laptop for that which still does a pretty decent job with my Wi-Fi connection(dual band Intel 8265). Overall, very powerful device capable of maintaining near loss-less 5ghz stream. Recommended!
