Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Impressive I have an old hand me down computer and the wifi adapter was very old so I decided to give NETGEAR AC600 Dual Band WiFi USB Adapter (A6100 a try. Best decision ever! As soon as I opened the box I was very impressed how sleek and compact, barely noticeable this was. The installation couldn't of been easier! Now I am connected and my internet is running 4x as fast as it was. I have been using Netgear products for litterly decades. This just proves why! Bravo Netgear you knocked it outta the park with this device!! So if your considering it - trust me you won't be dissappointed. Good job Netgear and Thank you!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good to Get on the Net This product is a good and stronger alternative to the built-in adapter in your computer. Installing the software, including its own driver, is better than installing the stand-alone driver, because the software gives the user an independent way of connecting to the internet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works good, installation stupid A device used to access the internet. Requires you to access the internet prior to inserting/installing device. Does anyone else see a problem with that? My old adapter was going bad, would connect then drop the connection a minute later. I had to connect, then reconnect , then reconnect…… Each time adding a bit of data for the required download. Including a USB key drive with the download onboard in the package would make much more sense.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Most modern laptops and desktop, don’t have cd What are you supposed to, to get the install if you have no cd drive, and the adapter will not connect to the internet for you to download the installation, since it first requires the installation. This seems like something that could have been solved by including a basic install, then once connected to the internet get the full update if needed. Otherwise this is completely useless

After that the installation went smoothly and the device has been working flawlessly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from works great (once software is installed) I didn't quite understand the chicken-and-egg directions: my desktop didn't have wifi with which to download the software, which is why I bought the USB adapter in the first place. After a few calls to tech, we figured out that I could use my wifi-enabled laptop to download the software, transfer to a thumb drive, and upload to the desktop. I'm sure a tech-minded person would have interpreted the directions that way from the get-go, but we got there eventually! This little thing works great for desktop gaming and we haven't had any trouble. I think it was a good investment!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from WiFi USB Adapter I was surprised to discover a refurbished computer I purchased did not come with a WiFi connection.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Didn't even last 5 months I bought this at the beginning of January in 2022. It worked well enough until roughly March/April. That's when it started dropping the connection more frequently. Now, in May of 2022, it's basically unusable. Once inserted, I usually get a message that the device has malfunctioned. After removing and inserting 1 to 5 times, it will work..... for ten whole minutes if I'm lucky. Usually I get five minutes or less. Then I get the message that it malfunctioned and the computer can't recognize it again. I got it working long enough to click "write a review," give my rating, add a title, and write one sentence of the review.... The netgear I bought in 2014/2015 lasted more than five years, and it would have lasted longer if it hadn't gotten so banged up. This one couldn't even make it a whole five months while being treated 100x better. Not happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Misleading The device works as advertised and that is the problem. All of the speed rates stated in the literature are transfer rates from the AC600 to the router of 433 Mbps for AC mode. However, the receive rate for the AC600 which is not listed in the literature is limited to 54 Mbps in AC mode. Thus, receiving data on my laptop is much slower than my imbedded chip which can receive and transmit at 300 Mbps in N mode. Neatgear should publish the fact that the link speeds are asynchronous receive/transmit at 54/433 Mbps in AC mode. I am currently looking for an AC adapter that is either synchronous or close to synchronous, especially one that publishes those specifications and does not try to mislead the customer by omission.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very good product Did not think this was going to work as well due to its size. It’s so small and convenient. I am happy and have no complaints.
