Tp-Link TL-WN722N IEEE 802.11n (draft) USB - Wi-Fi Adapter. WIRELESS LITE N ADAPTER 150M USB HIGH GAIN 1DETACHABLE ANTENNA WL-AP. 150 Mbps - External

I had high hopes for this little dongle, but reviews maybe set the bar a smidge too high. That said, it's a great purchase. I bought it with the hope of amplifying signal reception on my laptop. It doesn't do that. In my living room, I get 4 bars with my laptop, and in my bedroom 1-2. I tried plugging this baby in and while the ease of use is indeed great (lit right up, installed drivers automatically, went right to work), I got no more bars in the bedroom with the antenna than without it. HOWEVER, I put the TP-Link to use on a desktop machine that previously had no connectivity, and for that purpose, it's great. I'm very happy with the purchase. So, if you're hoping to amplify your laptop signal... my experience has been that it's no more powerful than a decent laptop's built-in receiver. Now, I should note that my laptop is newish -- bought November 2010 -- so maybe it's wireless receiver is already pretty good, and if you are trying to get a better signal for an older laptop, you might experience a bump in your signal by using this dongle. ALSO, while the signal remains low on my desktop machine (2 bars) it has been VERY stable and reliable, even when streaming video on Hulu. So that's noteworthy. Maybe a low signal isn't the biggest deal in the world, as long as it's stable! Overall - I'd say you really can't go wrong for the money, as long as you know what it's good for. I did a lot of comparison shopping before picking this one and here's the overview: A++ for ease of use and basic functionality -- converting an offline device into a wireless device works great. (Note, installing drivers was a breeze both with the laptop -- which automatically pulled the drivers off the internet since it was online -- and the desktop machine, which installed off the included CD.) C for extra signal pick-up relative to a decent quality modern laptop. Got the same number of bars on my laptop with/without the dongle. A for signal reliability (signal reliability might in fact be better than the laptop - given equal # bars - I haven't done enough comparison of the relative stability of the signal between the laptop and the dongle with the low signal strength - but so far I've never gotten better than "Low" signal strength from the dongle, and yet I've never had my connectivity fail!). A+ for sleek design -- has antenna, but it's not unwieldy, so you can plug it directly into a laptop or desktop USB port without its being a nuisance, or you can connect it to an extension cable (which I had to do simply because the signal behind the desktop machine was only one bar, whereas sitting on top of the desk was two bars) -- ***IT DOES COME WITH A SHORT (maybe 2 or 3 feet?) USB EXTENSION CABLE to reach from a machine situated under a desk, up to the top of the desk, let's say. A++ for price -- Srsly cheap for such a handsome and functional little piece of machinery. I'd say if you are looking to improve upon your (already quality) laptop sensitivity, probably look at other dongles with clunkier antennae, but if you want to convert an offline (or irritatingly wired) machine into a wireless machine, AND/OR improve the signal STABILITY for a laptop that tends to lose its connectivity frequently due to low signal reception, then this little number is probably a good bet.

I noticed my desktop PCI networking card wasn't able to reach my network in my current setup (subletting an apartment for a month, using a friend's wifi from another apartment). I tried two USB adapters, only one of which was able to reach the network I'm trying to connect to, and then not very reliably. This adapter maintains a consistent connection with 40-60% signal strength (which is good enough given the circumstances). It comes with a USB extension that lets you place it in a few different places for better reception. Installation was fairly easy, the drivers come on a mini CD (or DVD?) and install without too much hassle. The external antenna means better signal strength and upgradability (perhaps), which is a plus for me. Also, it works with Linux without any extra drivers which is great. At a great price + Prime shipping I'd give it a go if you need a better network adapter. My minor complaint is that I had to do a good bit of positioning to get the strength I'm getting. I actually have two USB extension cords that let me place this thing on top of my desk. While I understand you can't work miracles for less than twenty bucks I wish I could just leave it plugged into the back of my tower. One other minor complaint is that the wifi utility (which works much better with this than Windows' default) doesn't work too well with fullscreen applications. Netflix/YouTube videos drop out of fullscreen very frequently, and fullscreen games will minimize likewise. In order to play any sort of game I had to exit the utility in the taskbar, which isn't a huge deal once you're already connected. Including the two minor issues above, I hesitated give it 5 stars because whoever was responsible for tendering the package to FedEx did not hand it over for over 24 hours. I ordered one-day shipping on a Thursday afternoon and, because FedEx doesn't normally ship on Saturdays, didn't get my order until Monday. This was either a major oversight or excessive laziness, but support was friendly and refunded my shipping costs (only $4 with Prime, I suppose) so I'm not turning tail on Amazon anytime soon. Plus an adapter like this for $20? I'd wait a full month for shipping.

The signal for this device is brilliant, can connect to the Wi-Fi from distances never imaginable with other PCIe/M.2 devices. Technical Review: This device is the V2 meaning that it comes with the realtek RTL8188EUS chipset instead of the atheros chipset that natively supports monitor mode. After about 4 hours of searching around for solutions I found a custom driver by aircrack-ng on github which allowed this device to be used with monitor mode.

سعرها بسيط مقارنه بادائها , انا استعملها لكالي لينكس مايحتاج تعريفات للادابتر بس اشبكه و يشتغل على طول , مداها كبير و تلقط الشبكات البعيده و شي حلو انه يجي معها سلك يو اس بي (زي التوصيله) عشان تقدر تغير مكان الادابتر براحتك , يفضل تحط الادابتر جنب الدريشه عشان تلقط شبكات اكثر

صراحة فوق الممتاز خاصة انه ممكن تشغله وتغير ال mode بتاعه لل monitor mode وده مهم جدا لمختبري اختراق الشبكات واكيد المخترقين هيفهموا كلامي

Fácil de instalar. Lo compré para una computadora de escritorio que me dió la compañía para la que trabajo. No tenía capacidad de wifi, solamente ethernet y como la quería colocar relativamente lejos del módem iba a necesitar un cable largo. La computadora automáticamente detectó wifi cundo conecté el adaptador, la señal es buena y no he tenido problemas de conexión trabajando más de 12 horas continuas en internet. Buen precio, y excelente calidad.

Très bon produit fonctionne parfaitement sous Windows 10. Cependant attention c'est la v2 avec un chipset Realtech non compatible avec kernel Linux
