it works perfect. Connects to Wi-Fi 6 and no more errors. Very easy to install, but I downloaded the install firmware from their website first. speed are good and everything loads quicker and snappy. For my needs, it's perfect. For the price, no complaints.
The software is quick and easy to load and I'm running XP x64.
1. The box says driver free. - But you are instructed to download a driver. ????
2. The box has a sticker on the back to contact support. This was something they had to have printed then stuck on the back of the product.
Now that tells me two things, 1) at least they are trying to fix a known issue. And 2) they have had design issues and something's not working.
I followed the instructions provided. Once I plugged it in to my PC, an icon popped up notifying me of a new drive. I tried to right-click but the wheel kept spinning, never doing anything. Freezing up file explorer and not allowing me to do anything else.
Unplugged, tried again, same thing. But now the icon was more fleshed out to an image. Progress?
I downloaded the driver for this driver-less device. Did the install, now I can't even get an icon.
Restarted the computer as directed. It froze up during restart, had to do it again.
Still didn't work. Left the USB plugged in, frustrated I thought I'd try it later.
A couple of hours later, success! It worked!
For less than a half hour I had wi-fi.
I could have contacted support, I did not.
I bought a 40' cat6 Ethernet cord for 1/3rd the price. I will return this tomorrow.
Direct connection is better anyway, had I done that in the first place, I'd be enjoying the fiber internet I'm paying for.
- The adapter would not stay connected for more than a few minutes;
- The signal was too weak (at 3ft from the router);
- It seemed to pick up interference from the wireless keyboard (not confirmed).
I switched from channel 13 to a lower channel in my router and got a better (but still not very good) signal. The connection drops seemed to be related to the USB hub, had to use the USB port in the Pi itself. After that I got a more stable connection.
Other than that, it worked in Raspbian, Openelec, and Windows 8. Plug-and-play. Seems to be a good adapter, as long as you don't go too far from your router.
It also heats up a lot. Not sure if it's a problem, but surely seems like a waste of energy.
[EDIT] Well... after some more tests, I decided to take another star off. The adapter is good enough for browsing the web, but not for media streaming. Some files will stream reasonably well but stutter occasionally. Higher bitrate files will just keep stuttering all the time. The adapter and the router are in adjacent rooms, I would expect a better connection. Back to wired for now...
