This thing is garbage

Strengths:

Cheap

Weaknesses:

Poor connection quality. If you enjoy intermittent latency issues for no reason, this is the one. Try different drivers (it's actually a Realtek 8812AE chip) but it's still trash. Under high load, there's a high pitched squeal coming from it. Poor RF circuit design.

Additional Comments:

Don't buy it.

Works great!!

Strengths:

Getting speeds about 22Mbps download, no installation issues just plug and play (win 10). If you have old drivers just remove them prior to install. No issues

Additional Comments:

Works great

Decent with some hurtles

Strengths:

Strong connections. Minimal lag spikes, and very good value for it's price. Usable for gaming, though less then ideal.

Weaknesses:

A royal pain to install. Had a lot of trouble getting it to stay in the socket, and drivers where a pain.

Additional Comments:

This is a good card for it's price point. Installing it and dealing with it's drivers was a huge issue, and it took me a while to get sorted. Now that it's working, it's doing it's job really well, and I quite satisfied with it's performance, even if it is less then ideal for gaming ( I average a 40 mb download, and an 18 mb upload, which is serviceable for gaming). Overall, a good card, minus it's installation problems.

Excellent wireless card

Strengths:

Strong signals in furthest corners of my house. Full download speeds from Shaw Speedtest.

Weaknesses:

Would be nice if a triple band version of this was made.

Additional Comments:

PCIe cards are miles better than USB versions.

Not SNUG on ASUS P-55 mobo

Strengths:

If the card is recognized - yes, it works fast. There are issues as the card does not sit properly in PCI-e slot.

Weaknesses:

Installed on Asus P55 mobo. The PCI-e card is NOT snug and moves around and losses connection.

Additional Comments:

I do not recommend for ASUS-p55 mother boards,

Not For Gaming

Strengths:

Very fast for day to day use.

Weaknesses:

Not for gaming. You will get ping spikes in game. LAG

Additional Comments:

At this price, it's a good card if you don't play online games.

Works Fantastic

Strengths:

Card has 2 good-sized antennas, and fits nice and snug in the PCIe slot. Thanks to the other two reviews, I avoided installation issues by stopping the automatic installation by Windows. Instead, I had the driver from D-Link loaded onto a thumb drive. I followed the prompts and installation went smoothly the first time. No issues at all. The PC is in the basement and I could never get very good signal down there but with this card it's as fast as upstairs - 25Mbps on both machines now.

Weaknesses:

None, except the installation trick was nice to know about.

Additional Comments:

Big antennae, good signal, solid installation. Great value.

Will need tech support

Strengths:

Pretty fast

Weaknesses:

Driver disc is garbage. Will not complete installation. Had to contact tech support. Known issue with D-Link and this is windows 7. With windows 10 I am told to not even load the drivers. Th OS will find and load them. Not so with 7.

Additional Comments:

It works but its not plug and play on windows 7. maybe on 10.
