Product Description

Capacity: N300 | Model: Standard

Mini-Sized Design - Great Portability and Convenience

With its mini-sized design, you can connect the TL-WN823N adapter to the USB port of your computer without worrying about blocking adjacent USB ports or that the adapter may fall out when moving the connected computer. It is also easy to carry the adapter due to its small size. The ergonomic design of the body of the adapter makes it esay to hold and pull the adapter off.


300Mbps Wireless N Speed

The TL-WN823N complies with wireless 802.11 b/g/n standards and transmits data at up to 300Mbps. It adopts the Mutiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) and Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) technologies to provide better wireless performance and stability than previous generations. The adapter supports WEP, WPA/WPA2, and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK encryptions.





Easy Setup

If your computer's operating system doesn't install the driver of the TL-WN823N automatically after plug-in, you just need to install the driver from the bundled CD or from TP-LINK's website. After the driver is installed, you can use the built-in wireless utility in your operating system to connect to a wireless network. If you want to use advanced features of the adapter such as Soft AP, you can install the TP-LINK utility to access those functions.



Create a Hotspot with the SoftAP Feature

Whenever there is only wired Internet connection, you can activate the SoftAP function of the TL-WN823N after installing the bundled utility software, and create a Wi-Fi hotspot for mobile devices. This feature is useful when travelling to places where there is only one cable for Internet and mutiple people have to use the Internet.

It connected MUCH better, in both range and signal strength.
MicroAcres
I've had this device for about 5 months now and about 2 months ago the device would stop working.
Kerwin
It even has a nice extension cable in case your USB ports are spaced too closely together.

I am a soldier in Afghanistan where I live in a tent. The nearest internet hotspot is about 120 meters away behind a 1 foot thick concrete blast wall. Before I purchased this relatively inexpensive 'high-gain' antenna I had to leave my tent and walk outdoors towards a signal to connect to the internet.
Now, not only am I able to connect, but I have twice as many choices of networks to connect to. This little gadget is awesome! The upload and download speeds are good enough for SKYPE. It is one of the best devices I've purchased since I've been here.

----------------------------------------------------------
UPDATED: August 21, 2013 (Update section below)
----------------------------------------------------------

Installed January 14, 2011 and still excellent.

Here's my take on the TP-Link TL-WN722N Wireless USB Adapter:

-------------
POSITIVES:
-------------
** 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.

----------------------
MINOR NEGATIVES:
----------------------
- The TP-LINK Wireless Client Utility is functional but could be more intuitive. A configuration "wizard" would be a good improvement for manual configs.

It has my respect for two reasons.
First, It pulls in signals from somewhere, not on our acreage.
And secondly, anywhere I've tried it, it has an outstanding, full five bars signal.
This is paired with an AT&T 2wire wireless N router and has no loss, I can find.
Windows 8 loads its own driver, which has worked well for months.
The Only con is you must D/L Win 7 driver from their site, which took 30 seconds to locate and download.
XP and Vista drivers on disc supplied.
It made my first wireless box happy, the rest have been converted.
Simple, Painless, Secure.
If you are looking for something reliable, this is currently $20 shipped to your place.
Get you one.
To test I had 4 secure pages and 2 different HULU channels playing and a few web pages, all open concurrently, and each was clear and fluid.
With "inSSIDer3" it shows a signal range of -24 to -38 dBm
It also shows all the pert. info.

This TP-Link TL-WN722N Wireless adapter works great on Ubuntu-10.10 without installing its driver CD.

Additional info:-The driver CD comes with it is smaller disk and it will not fit a CD/DVD drive of a laptop, if there is no Tray coming out of the Laptop to place the CD.
Some of the latest laptops DVD drives are built within and need to just insert the CD/DVD and drive will automatically pull the CD/DVD inside.
To take it out we needed to eject out by using eject keyboard button. (Also, it is possible, one could use another PC to burn this CD to a bigger CD and use it )

However, the product works great, I have purchased this for Ubuntu 10.10 (Linux) and which could not able to recognize built in wireless card of my Dell Studio laptop. As soon as I have plugged this to USB port, instantly it picked up lists of available wireless connections. Just select your connection and provide SSID and pass code, thats it.

This package is compatible with Windows 7 / Win XP as well

Great product.

Bought this to hook up a new desktop system to our historical society's wifi network.

Step 1: Plug into computer using supplied USB cable
Step 2: Install driver from included CD
Step 3: Connect and enter password (one-time)

Took all of 2-3 minutes! Windows reported excellent connection and I didn't even have to extend the antennas.

Our network is currently Wireless G - but this connected with no problem. Router is in another room about 40 feet away.

Used to download and install several hundreds of MB's of OS & application updates, anti-virus, and firewall software. Connection remained solid entire time.

I just received mine 5 minutes ago. I plugged it into my desktop and I'm writing this review online with better connectivity than the laptop next to me. I'm running Ubuntu Linux Maverick Meerkat 10.10.
