It alright

It's okay it helps a little with the speed of the internet, but the range isn't very far. It was easy to install. Not something I'd buy with my own money but I would say it's 4/10 for me

This adapter really impressed me!

I got the Plugable USB 3 Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Adapter from Influenster for testing, and it came at the perfect time because my old laptop's Wi-Fi stopped working. This adapter really impressed me! Setting it up was super easy. The drivers installed automatically, and my laptop found new networks right away. The connection was quick and smooth. The performance with Wi-Fi 6 is great. My internet speed is much faster than before. Streaming videos, playing online games, and downloading big files are now much quicker and more stable. I also like that it works on the 5 GHz band, which reduces interference and improves the signal. The adapter is compact and sturdy, and it easily plugs into any USB port. I'm very happy with it and recommend it to anyone needing better Wi-Fi on an old device. The Plugable USB 3 Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Adapter is a great fix for problems with old Wi-Fi modules.

Computer device

The Plugable USB 3 Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Adapter is a solid choice for users seeking a reliable and affordable way to upgrade their wireless connectivity. Its impressive speed, ease of use, and compact design make it a strong contender for both home and office use. While the lack of an external antenna could be a drawback for users in challenging environments, the overall performance and value make it a worthy consideration. The adapter supports the latest Wi-Fi 6 standard, but it's important to ensure your router is also Wi-Fi 6 capable to fully leverage its potential. The small size makes it easy to carry around and plug into different computers, making it ideal for mobile users.

Great for on the go

The Plugable WiFi 6 adapter gives you speed and a more stable connection over Wi-Fi 5 protocols. It comes with a 45-inch (115 cm) extension cable and the adapter folds flat so you can get connected on the go. It runs for about $40 on AMAZON.

An adapter that works!

All previous adapters I've bought had very spotty connections. Not this one! It's very reliable and provides consistent coverage. It was very easy to install, download drivers, and setup. If the blinking light bothers you, just turn it around. Not a deal breaker at all. Highly satisfied and definitely recommend!

good back up system

I was looking for a back up system and thought I should go with the latest Wi-Fi rate. This product included all of the hardware needed including multiple USB cable types. The driver download was a bit confusing but eventually I got it right. I did a before and after speed test and did not see any appreciable difference which is what I expect from a backup system. If you're looking for an upgrade, then the performance difference may be more noticeable. All in all, a good product. Recommended.
