USB WiFi Bluetooth Adapter, 600Mbps Dual Band 2.4/5Ghz Wireless Network External Receiver, Mini WiFi Dongle for PC/Laptop/Desktop

I'm giving this adapter 5 stars because it's now working great. However, for me it was not "plug & play". I have an older Toshiba laptop with both a on-board plug-in and Realtek wireless NIC. The laptop originally was loaded with W7, and later updated to W10. Following the W10 update the Realtek wireless stopped working. After some research I found this was a common issue and that W10 driver(s) were not compatible. I purchased this USB wireless adapter, plugged it in and it installed "successfully". I rebooted and it did not work. It recognized misc. local wireless networks, but would not "see" mine. This was the same problem I had been having. I checked Device Manger and both the original Realtek and new plug-in displayed error-free, the plug-in Properties displaying a 2019 driver. I removed the plug-in and disabled (not un-install) the Realtek wireless. I then plugged the USB Wi-fi adapter back in and it re-installed, this time displaying a 2025 driver. Following that it has worked like a champ, no issues.

I bought this to use with an old office computer that didn't have wifi or bluetooth built in or space to install an internal adapter. It works very well for this use case. Please keep in mind that the range of this thing is not amazing. If you have a weak wifi signal in your intended use location with other devices, you might not have any signal at all with this thing or the signal might be borderline and cut in and out. If you have a nice strong signal though you shouldn't expect any problems. I didn't notice any speed constraints, either. I have used the bluetooth end of this a lot, too, for game controllers. This also worked no problem. The responsiveness was on par with other bluetooth receivers I have used. Nothing to complain about, range is just fine for this. The only other downside I can think of besides the slightly weaker wifi reception is that it sticks out more than some other dongles. Overall, if you need both wifi and bluetooth and your wifi signal is good where you want to use it, I don't see any reason not to go with this little guy. Saves you a USB port and some money having to order two of them and keeps things simple.

I bought this adapter so I can get 5g wifi and bluetooth on an older laptop I keep as a spare. Everything is working fine now.........but!!! There were absolutely NO instructions included, only a small thick paper cover folded to hold the tiny installation CD for Bluetooth on Windows that had Wifi specs on 1 section, Bluetooth specs on another section, and the adapter description cover on the 3rd section. getting WiFi set up was arduous and time-consuming. Bluetooth was easy to install since all I had to do was click on the .EXE program file to run & install. Getting WiFi working was a total pain since it isn't an "intuitive" app that guides you through setup. I'm very happy with the WiFi and Bluetooth results, just frustrated that it's not really user-friendly to install. I imagine Amazon Support has received a lot of requests for help.

First off...ignore any negative reviews! This product is incredible! It was cheap, easy to install, and its speed and performance are excellent. No...I take some of that back. There was NO installation required. I stuck it into the USB port, turned on my computer, unplugged the LAN cable, and the WIFI connection was just there...as if, there was an installed WIFI card. The list of available routers was in the usual place. I entered my password, as normal. It worked immediately. BUT, there is more! This is a OLD computer! An HP EliteDesk 800 G1 USDT with an Intel Core i5 processor. This box is over 13 YEARS OLD! I just installed Linux on it because it can't run Windows 11. Take a look at the two screenshots of two different speed tests. This dongle is running on a USB 2.0 port and its doing 200mbps up and down! Same thing with the Bluetooth. I plugged it in and it was just there. Did the normal pairing and it sounded great! No lag. No weirdness. All I can say about the people who have written bad reviews is that they must have really lousy computers, or they don't know what they're doing, or they somehow got a bad adapter. I can't imagine how much better, cheaper, or easier this could be. I just ordered another one for my other computer.

Works! My mom bought a mini PC, and didnt realize it's not wifi compatible because it's always been directly connected to the modem. Anyways, I didn't even know something like this existed until I searched for a solution. Bought this one based off the reviews. It's small and just plugs in for use, very easy! Highly recommend.

I recently bought this and have literally spent countless hours and days trying to get this to work right. As a result, I missed the 30-day return date. (I hope this has taught me a lesson.) My final effort was yesterday evening when I said "That's it. I give up! Time for a new computer." First I want to say that the NIC usb adapter did NOT come with a mini-cd as advertised. Nor did it show up on my "This PC" when first inserted as stated is the instructions. I literally read all I could online about this little bugger. And spent countless hours trying this, that, and other things. When you go to Device Manager and click on the properties for this Realtek NIC card, you'll see that the device wasn't started because it requires further installation. Repeatedly. Even though there is no ? on it in Device Manager and it says that it is working properly. But go to the Events tab and you'll see differently. Just writing this review has caused my blood pressure to rise. I feel like I'm ready to blow a gasket. So, yeah, I'm pissed that I wasted my money and TIME on this. So uncheck the boxes for quality, build quality, signal strength, ease of use, etc. This little bugger is a POS.

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

bought this as a cheap way to add wifi to an older gaming desktop. it does work, and instillation is as simple as plugging it into a usb port, and letting it do its thing. the only complaint i have is the range of the wifi is EXTREMELY limited, and it does not work well through walls, even thin ones in an old house built in the '40s. bars were only about half full approximately 30-40 foot away in the other room, and speed was not great either. i ended up going with a pcie wireless card that only cost a few dollars more, and the signal strength is much better, but this will work if you do not have the slots for a dedicated card, i would just try to set it up in the same room, as close to the router as you can, and if you have the pcie slot for a dedicated wifi card, and the knowhow to install one, just spend the $20-$25 and have a MUCH better experience.

They show 5g but send 4 dongle don't buy and bluetooth don't even connect

شغاله بشكل سليم سرعة نت كامله مافيها اي نقص بس نطاقها ضعيف شويه بس اخذتها عشان اشبك نت على جوال انصحك بشرائها اذا تستخدم نت الجوال وبنسبة للبلوتوث يعني ممتاز لكن برضو نطاق سيء شوي لكن يائدي الغرض لكن لما استخدم الاثنين البلوتوث و الواي فاي القطعة تصير تطلع حرارة لكن صاراحه ممتازة 7من 10

When plugged in, internet keeps disconnecting resulting in really instable connection.

Para mi laptop fue más que suficiente

Excelente
