Great value for price but lackluster speed and reception . I bought this for a laptop with a broken wifi card. I did not want to buy one of the bigger wifi dongles because they tend to break and/or wear out the USB ports. Size-wise, this mini-dongle is barely noticeable. It is so small, you can plug it in and forget about it. Unfortunately, it can't beat the laws of physics and small size means also a small antenna and poor reception. There is a reason why many wifi-addon adapters come with huge antennas. This little thing does not get full signal strength even within 20ft of the router. As a result, even though this is advertised as a wireless-n card, you won't get wireless N speeds. The best I have seen was 54mbs, but oftentimes less as the adapter slows down when the signal weakens. That being said, you still can't go wrong for this price. Unless you have a huge home, this card should be adequate. Otherwise it works great. I ran streaming radio on it for hours without a single hiccup. Despite weak signal strength, the adapter has never actually dropped the signal. Unlike other mini-dongles, this one does not get very hot, just a little warm. Driver installation was a breeze. The card uses a standard Realtek chipset. Windows update detected the card right away and had a more current driver than supplied on the mini-CD.
Note that this adapter does NOT have a WPS button, even though the packaging advertises this feature.

Micro Mini USB Wireless B/N/G 802.11n RTL8192CU WiFi LAN Adapter Windows Vista/XP/7/MAC Reviews
Awesome price and functionality+++ . Received a laptop back from "warranty" with a faulty wireless card. I didn't want to deal with the wait again and decided to buy this unit. Compared it to Airlink and others on here and decided for the price I would give it a shot. The range is great. I grab my signal from a neighbors router which is about 30ft away and 4 thick walls in a pre-1940's built complex.
Very inconspicuous and sticks out maybe 1/2" from back of my laptop. Software was easy to locate and download on the mini-cd that is sent with the dongle(Win Vista). I did have a temporary dongle which I bought from Walmart at 4am when my stock unit broke and was doing research for a class and this one clearly has been better than the Cisco-Valet unit I purchased for around $40 on clearance(has since been returned).
This unit is more compact, which is less hassle than having a full size device like the Cisco hanging off my portable tablet PC. It is thus more flexible and the device management software is much better. typically 4 bars of strength at 20-30feet. Works as well on campus and does not dip below 3 bars at any given moment. Have owned unit approximately 2 weeks and decided to wait an ample amount of time to write a review and am very satisfied as should you.

Very small very nice . I had this item installed and working very quickly using the cd provided. I did a speed test at [...] and it ran very fast and smoothly. I then ran windows update and it located a newer driver, and installed that. I then tried to stream a bluray movie on my desktop over the wireless connection onto my laptop with this little card, and there was no hiccups or problems.Would recommend, and for the price, buy two!
Fyi, I am running windows 7 professional 32bit.

Good Wireless Adapter for 10 Bucks! . I needed a wireless adapter for a older laptop I have without one. I was looking for a small one that would not stick out of a back usb port on my laptop and this unit stuck out for under 10 dollars. Once I got it is was relatively easy to install the drivers. I just used the driver files themselves to install the unit because I don't like all of the crapy software these things come with that promise to control wireless connectivity. There is nothing wrong with using windows to configure your wireless networks. The connectivity speed was as posted and the transfer rate was a little better than that of a 100mb network interface card which was to be expected but the reception was a little shady. I live in an apartment where my wifi router is in my back bedroom and my patio is 3 walls away from the router but yet when I am on my patio I only get a quarter of normal reception (24mbps) which is probable due do not having an antenna.
This is a great wireless adapter as long as it is not being used for long distances.

Splendid! . A great little life-saver for an old laptop I have... Set-up was a breeze with XP, and I haven't had a problem. The software is a teeny bit annoying (it'll pop up and confuse the user of the laptop if I'm not around) and there are a few icons that clutter the windows notification bar. I could probably change some settings for that if I were more ambitious, though, so that's not really an issue.
All in all, I've had no problems!

Wireless N USB Micro Mini Adapter . This is a tiny & very light adapter. My package had no CAP or CD. Prior to receiving this adapter I downloaded the drivers from Realtek which made the installation & connection to the Internet seamless. I use Windows 7X64.The signal strength is very good at a close range...not so good at a distance. For a price of less than $7 this adapter is a great deal as long as the requirement is not a long distance.
Went against conventional thinking . I decided to take the chance even though I read about small adapters having limited range and I was happy I did. My DIY PC was upstairs and the router is downstairs. Signal strength was 4 out of 5 bars.This made me wonder if the router strength was more important than the receiver. I am using a dual band router from belkin purchased recently and I get at least 4 bars for the laptops in my house regardless of location.
Great little adapter . Was looking for a small adapter with a reasonable price tag, this little gem was the perfect solution. Easy setup was up and running in little or no time. Used within my home so I'm not sure how well it will work for more mobile devices but it is perfect for my needs...
great small cheap way to get WiFi . These are spectacular for how small they are. Great for using in a laptop that the Wifi has gone bad in or in a desktop without having to take it apart to install something or having USB wires hanging all over. The best part is how cheap they are. I have bought 5 of these so far (and used 4), all work well and have had no issues. It should be noted that though it comes with a driver disc, at least some of the drivers (I did not look through all of them) are within zip files. So you can't just pop the disc in and point windows to it for the drivers. You have to navigate to the correct driver folder and extract the driver files from the zip file to somewhere on your computer then point windows to that for driver instillation. Not annoying enough to drop the product a star, but could be frustrating for someone not paying attention to this. Overall... WELL worth the money and a great product (How is it THAT SMALL??)
Cons Review
Decent signal strength S L O W downloads ! . WIth old wireless G adapter on this desktop I got 8mb/sec download speeds.
In same location this Wireless N adapter gets me barely above 1 mb/sec,
and does that poorly. Using it for Netflix gets me blurry pix and
halts in mid-movie.
Would not recommend this unit, except to an enemy.
I ought to return it. In fact if I can find packaging, I will.
