TP-Link TL-WN823N Mini USB WiFi Adapter for PC, USB WiFi Dongle for PC, Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7/XP, Mac OS, Linux, SoftAP Mode, Mini-sized Design & Portable, Easy Setup, HD Video/Gaming/Streaming

Small enough that you can leave it in a USB port permanently without it sticking out and snagging anything. Setup on Windows 11 was completely automatic. Plugged in, recognised, online within a minute. Speeds are perfectly adequate for streaming and video calls in a normal-sized home. TP-Link have always been reliable for this kind of network kit and this is no exception. Sensible buy.

Very happy with this. I bought it for my Asus Zenbook, which has a WiFi card too modern for Fedora Linux to work. This dongle is plug and play. No issues at all. And it's much smaller than other options. WiFi speed is identical to an internal card for me.

This little thing is awesome! It really, really works like mad. ** I get constant download speeds of 12Mbps+, which is close the the max of my internet bandwidth. - It's very cheap cost-wise for the great performance it gives you - It's small(ish), though it will look big connected to your laptop - Comes with a 3' USB extension cable which I definitely recommend using. It helps position the device, and keeps it from crowding your laptop or from being destroyed by being knocked out of your PC's front USB port. - Has a diffused green LED under the white plastic to let you know it's working, instead of the blinding blue LEDs that everyone uses these days. The light turns off when it's not powered (like when you hit Standby on your PC). NOTE: It's still annoying in a dark room when I'm trying to sleep, but a few post-it notes helps that. - The software is relatively simple to install and use, and allows you to use other products to manage your WiFi instead. - The current driver, software, and documents come on a mini CD and are all up to date with what's available on TP-Link's web site - The documentation is good, but it could use some more detail.

Excellent Quality

Prone to constant cutoffs and drops which I isolated to this device - suspected faulty unit. I believe these cutoffs are as a result of overheating as the device would be great and work perfectly for the first 30-40 minutes and then would start to cut out. The device itself would be too hot to touch. One it had cooled down it would start to work again.

I purchased this dongle specifically for my spare PC for Windows 7 as another brand dongle did not work, it came in a nice package box with a installation CD, the application was easy to install. My old PC was revived and I found that worked as well with a browser called Supermium, allowing Google and most application to run smoothly.

Although I had high hopes for this dongle saving me from the laborious task of hard wiring a connection some 20 feet to my Hub, those hopes were rapidly shattered within 5 minutes of setting the device up. There was a brief moment initially when first plugged in, when the internet icon lit up on my PC taskbar and it was possible to trigger my browser; however that lasted all of 10 seconds before the whole set-up collapsed like a house of cards and I was internet-less once again. Although the device comes with a cd containing the associated driver, it soon became apparent that I would have had just as much success in getting this to connect, had I used a greatest hits compilation from my aging cd collection. There’s even a tiny WPS button on the dongle which you can press to enable a connection, however, my much awaited connection failed to materialise. I tried various combinations of setting this dongle up stopping just short of standing on my head and whistling ‘Dixie’ while plugging it in with my left hand but all to no avail so I’m not too sure where the 300Mbs claim comes into it as I was struggling to get 3. For what it’s worth, I was using Windows 10 and was some 20 feet from the main Hub. This one is about to be returned and I’ll have another look around the amazon marketplace for something a bit more substantial.

Just works out of the box, 5 minutes and you have a fully wireless pc, worth the Dosh! Small and easy to install, will definitely use for other non wireless pc installs.

Good Working for desktop

pas de problème OK

I had already a wireless dongle, but I wanted to get a better one to check if the speed could be improved. After testing, the speed was the same, so it is just my provider. The dongle is very robust and package is very good too.

Laptop wifi card was faulty, but out of warranty. Tried to replace the wifi card itself but failed. Then I realised I could just use one of these. As a network engineer myself, we use a lot of TP Link products for their reliability and quality, so naturally I chose this and I chose well. Works like a charm. No downloading drivers required for me.

Super handig in gebruik.. in mijn computer plug & play. Accepteer het device. Gelijk werkt mijn internet verbinding..streaming is top voor normaal gebruik pc gebruik.. zeer blij mee!
