I read excellent reviews about the product and admittedly many of them scared me (as I imagine they did to you). My own experience is positive up to a point (neutral from there on) and I will explain below what I mean. I bought it as part of a complete desktop purchase. The product worked immediately and effortlessly. Plug and play with Windows 10. No drivers, no special settings. I connected it to a USB port, connected to my network, and that's it. It worked perfectly with a 24Mbps ADSL connection for several months. Almost zero download/upload losses. Note that the USB stick was connected to a Wi-Fi extender and not directly to the modem. Then (after several months) I upgraded my line to a 100Mbps VDSL. That's when I discovered that the 150Mbps mentioned by TP-Link is purely nominal. In reality, this particular device only detected the 2.4GHz network, with download speed on the extender reaching about 40Mbps and ending up at around 20Mbps on the desktop (these values refer to download speeds). In my case, I would have preferred to spend an extra 10 euros from the beginning and buy its sibling, the TP-LINK Archer T3U v1. This one can detect both the 5GHz network (reaching around 80Mbps) and the 2.4GHz network (reaching 40Mbps). What I want to conclude is that if you have ADSL and don't plan on upgrading to VDSL soon, go for it. If you plan on upgrading to VDSL, it's better to buy the TP-LINK Archer T3U v1. However, if you are willing to spend more money, then consider a more effective powerline adapter with more stable speeds, such as the TP-LINK PA7017P Kit v4. I hope I helped. Good day!

Don't buy it! It's a waste of money! I literally asked for my money back after half an hour of use! On one computer, with a distance of 4 meters from the router while having a signal strength of 1-2 bars, it couldn't even open web pages on Internet Explorer except for Google!
I connected it to another computer, with a distance of 1-1.5 meters from the router! Here, I struggled to open the speedtest page and complete 1 test!
The results on a 24mbps connection were only 2.82mbps download! Just to give you an idea, with a cable immediately after, the download was 19.46mbps!
I don't know where they found those 150mbps they claim, but even if you put it inside the router, it won't be able to reach such speed! (obviously with a better connection than 24mbps)
It's better to spend about 5€ more and get a similar one with an antenna! At least this way, you won't throw your money in the trash!

    It's not for much use. If the computer is right next to the router, it somewhat works, otherwise forget it. In any case, the 150 Mbps is science fiction.

  • it's the second time I've bought it because I thought the first one was faulty. but I have the same issue with the second one even in a different house. I have it 3 meters away from the router without any obstacles in between and from 100bps that my mobile receives in the same spot, the wireless stick can achieve 10mbps max. better buy sth better imo.

  • The worst thing on the market, it's not even worth 7€, any good review you see is a lie or from the same company! Don't buy it. My router is 5 meters away and the only thing separating us is a door. It's better to spend 20€ to get a good one and not have to replace it, rather than 7€ for this nonsense that barely plays 480p video. Unacceptable, not even in 2010 did I have such crappy wifi. DO NOT BUY IT!! ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE THOUGH, Update: Το πιο υψηλο που εφτασε ειναι 11.5mbps download kai 7 mbps upload , παραμενει χαμηλο για το ιντερνετ μου που ειναι κανονικα 60mbps download και 10mbps upload

  • I liked the ease of connection (which is the same for all), connection speed that reaches 0.4mbps or 2-3mbps. It creates a problem with the internal network, especially when it's on a router/repeater (even TP-Link). Also, it requires previous version drivers, with those installed by Win10 it loses the connection. Having extensive experience with networks, I do not recommend it for purchase mainly due to the low speed.

    It might be the worst product on the market, constant disconnections, when it connects there is no connection at all, it reconnects after restarting the computer, not to mention the speed, 48 Mbps on mobile, not even 1 on the computer. And the computer is placed directly in line with the router, with no obstacles 4-5 meters away. Worthless

    It is very small, you don't notice it on the computer, it has a green indicator light that turns on when the PC is running. The problem is that it doesn't pick up a good WiFi signal; compared to a mobile phone that picks up a signal anywhere in the house, this particular model had trouble finding a good signal and making a good connection when the router is in the next room, a distance of less than 10 meters. In the end, I used a repeater right next to the computer, and connected to WiFi through the repeater.

    The router is at 3 meters and cannot catch the 5G signal at all. It catches 4 out of 5 bars and freezes for hours sometimes, with frequent disconnections. It's tragic. It also increases the ping to 1000ms, which is really bad. I regret it a lot

    Furthermore, after adjusting the router settings for the wifi signal configuration and selecting channel 4, the connection is stable and the speed reaches 22mbps, while my line is 50mbps which I can achieve if I connect through my mobile. Of course, the price of the card was low and I am satisfied with the purchase.

    UPDATE: In the end, I couldn't handle it, the speed kept dropping below 1mbps. I got the TL-WN821N and now I have a stable 50mbps without any disconnections. I DO NOT recommend the Nano USB Adapter, with 2-3 more euros you can get something like what I got later.

    I bought it on 29/9 and since then, on a new PC with WIN10, it hasn't reached more than 1.8mbps with speedtest. I thought maybe I'm doing something wrong. I installed the latest drivers from T-PLINK and still nothing. I thought maybe I'm missing something, so I took it to the IT responsible at the company I work for, and it didn't work even next to the router. Finally, I contacted the company I bought it from, E-GATE in Marousi, and their response was that I should bring it in and they will send it to the company, and if it doesn't work, they will refund me. I don't know if it's worth bothering for 6.9€. From what I understand, half of the comments say it works and the other half say it doesn't... So everyone takes their own risk....!!!!

    For its price, it's OK. It worked on a Raspberry Pi after finding the appropriate driver, but not out of the box. It hasn't caused any issues with disconnections. It also worked with a passive USB hub.

    I have been using it for about 2 years now. Recently, I changed my internet connection plan and upgraded to 100mbps download & 10mbps upload. This specific adapter reduces the download speed by 60% and let me explain why. With my laptop wirelessly connected to the router (the new one with a 5GHz frequency), without the adapter, after a speed test, I get 95mbps download & 10mbps upload, the same with a cable connection. With my desktop tower wirelessly connected using this adapter and in a room relatively far from the router, I get either 25mbps or 15mbps download, consistently 10mbps upload. For its price, it is good, I won't deny that. But since I saw in the description a frequency data of 150mbps, it would be better to be more accurate.

    I have it here for a few months. When I had it in a room, not so far from the router, there were days when it didn't want to connect AT ALL. I had to constantly connect and disconnect it just for something to work. However, now, I came even closer to the router (not close enough to use a cable though) and it does something. It works, but for some reason, it is very fast for a while and then very slow. If I move my computer an inch, the speed changes. If you know that you won't be using the internet to download a lot and just to browse the web, try to have the router close to your computer and you'll be fine. Otherwise, I would suggest looking for something better.

    The constant disconnections will drive you crazy.
    I have installed it on a laptop which is in another room (next to) from the router and the signal comes with slightly better intensity compared to the adapter that the laptop itself has. However, the problem is that every hour I have a disconnection. To reconnect, it requires removal and reinsertion in the USB port.
    It doesn't make sense to talk about ease of installation or the speeds it can reach, because the constant disconnections make the product practically useless.
    Don't waste your money, read other reviews and find another product.

    I hesitate to give it a rating of 5 out of 5, due to the previous comments, however it worked perfectly for me on a chromebook that had a problem with its wireless network.

    However, since I didn't use it much, I give it a "four" for any potential future use.

    Speaking based on my experience, it doesn't reach 150 at all. I have a 120 internet connection. With speedtest on my laptop with an internal network card, I reach up to 120 mbps. As soon as I do a speedtest with this specific adapter on my desktop, it barely reaches 20 mbps. It occasionally disconnects, but it's enough to drive you crazy.

    I have it for a month and only the first week it worked satisfactorily. From then on, constant disconnections and inability to connect on a regular basis. Every day I have to reinstall the drivers from scratch and search for the problem for half an hour. It's not worth its money.

    I bought it to have internet on an old computer I have in the village, by connecting it to my mobile phone. It recognized it immediately, and for the past 6 days that I have been using it, I haven't experienced any disconnections. I have a range of about 4-5 meters away from my phone. I hope I helped

  • I don't know if there is a problem with the devices I connected, but it has a very short range. It also has some occasional interruptions in the connection. For its price (I bought it for around 8 euros), it's decent. However, I would look for something of higher quality/power in a future purchase.

  • it's the second time I've bought it because I thought the first one was faulty. but I have the same issue with the second one even in a different house. I have it 3 meters away from the router without any obstacles in between and from 100bps that my mobile receives in the same spot, the wireless stick can achieve 10mbps max. better buy sth better imo.

  • The worst thing on the market, it's not even worth 7€, any good review you see is a lie or from the same company! Don't buy it. My router is 5 meters away and the only thing separating us is a door. It's better to spend 20€ to get a good one and not have to replace it, rather than 7€ for this nonsense that barely plays 480p video. Unacceptable, not even in 2010 did I have such crappy wifi. DO NOT BUY IT!! ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE THOUGH, Update: Το πιο υψηλο που εφτασε ειναι 11.5mbps download kai 7 mbps upload , παραμενει χαμηλο για το ιντερνετ μου που ειναι κανονικα 60mbps download και 10mbps upload

  • I liked the ease of connection (which is the same for all), connection speed that reaches 0.4mbps or 2-3mbps. It creates a problem with the internal network, especially when it's on a router/repeater (even TP-Link). Also, it requires previous version drivers, with those installed by Win10 it loses the connection. Having extensive experience with networks, I do not recommend it for purchase mainly due to the low speed.

    I don't know why it has so many bad reviews, I have this on 4 PCs and the v2 on another 2 PCs and I have never had a problem with any of them, about 5 meters from the router and with a wall in between

    It might be the worst product on the market, constant disconnections, when it connects there is no connection at all, it reconnects after restarting the computer, not to mention the speed, 48 Mbps on mobile, not even 1 on the computer. And the computer is placed directly in line with the router, with no obstacles 4-5 meters away. Worthless

    It is very small, you don't notice it on the computer, it has a green indicator light that turns on when the PC is running. The problem is that it doesn't pick up a good WiFi signal; compared to a mobile phone that picks up a signal anywhere in the house, this particular model had trouble finding a good signal and making a good connection when the router is in the next room, a distance of less than 10 meters. In the end, I used a repeater right next to the computer, and connected to WiFi through the repeater.

    I have been a owner for 4 months now, it gets good speeds (Windows 11, 200 Mbps line, 2 bands modem), but 1-2 times a week it disconnects for a few seconds and then reconnects by itself

    The router is at 3 meters and cannot catch the 5G signal at all. It catches 4 out of 5 bars and freezes for hours sometimes, with frequent disconnections. It's tragic. It also increases the ping to 1000ms, which is really bad. I regret it a lot

    Furthermore, after adjusting the router settings for the wifi signal configuration and selecting channel 4, the connection is stable and the speed reaches 22mbps, while my line is 50mbps which I can achieve if I connect through my mobile. Of course, the price of the card was low and I am satisfied with the purchase.

    UPDATE: In the end, I couldn't handle it, the speed kept dropping below 1mbps. I got the TL-WN821N and now I have a stable 50mbps without any disconnections. I DO NOT recommend the Nano USB Adapter, with 2-3 more euros you can get something like what I got later.

    I bought it on 29/9 and since then, on a new PC with WIN10, it hasn't reached more than 1.8mbps with speedtest. I thought maybe I'm doing something wrong. I installed the latest drivers from T-PLINK and still nothing. I thought maybe I'm missing something, so I took it to the IT responsible at the company I work for, and it didn't work even next to the router. Finally, I contacted the company I bought it from, E-GATE in Marousi, and their response was that I should bring it in and they will send it to the company, and if it doesn't work, they will refund me. I don't know if it's worth bothering for 6.9€. From what I understand, half of the comments say it works and the other half say it doesn't... So everyone takes their own risk....!!!!

    For its price, it's OK. It worked on a Raspberry Pi after finding the appropriate driver, but not out of the box. It hasn't caused any issues with disconnections. It also worked with a passive USB hub.

    I have been using it for about 2 years now. Recently, I changed my internet connection plan and upgraded to 100mbps download & 10mbps upload. This specific adapter reduces the download speed by 60% and let me explain why. With my laptop wirelessly connected to the router (the new one with a 5GHz frequency), without the adapter, after a speed test, I get 95mbps download & 10mbps upload, the same with a cable connection. With my desktop tower wirelessly connected using this adapter and in a room relatively far from the router, I get either 25mbps or 15mbps download, consistently 10mbps upload. For its price, it is good, I won't deny that. But since I saw in the description a frequency data of 150mbps, it would be better to be more accurate.

    I have it here for a few months. When I had it in a room, not so far from the router, there were days when it didn't want to connect AT ALL. I had to constantly connect and disconnect it just for something to work. However, now, I came even closer to the router (not close enough to use a cable though) and it does something. It works, but for some reason, it is very fast for a while and then very slow. If I move my computer an inch, the speed changes. If you know that you won't be using the internet to download a lot and just to browse the web, try to have the router close to your computer and you'll be fine. Otherwise, I would suggest looking for something better.

    The connection with the repeater at 2.5 meters and the router at 5 meters is very difficult. However, for the money, I wasn't expecting miracles

    The constant disconnections will drive you crazy.
    I have installed it on a laptop which is in another room (next to) from the router and the signal comes with slightly better intensity compared to the adapter that the laptop itself has. However, the problem is that every hour I have a disconnection. To reconnect, it requires removal and reinsertion in the USB port.
    It doesn't make sense to talk about ease of installation or the speeds it can reach, because the constant disconnections make the product practically useless.
    Don't waste your money, read other reviews and find another product.

    I hesitate to give it a rating of 5 out of 5, due to the previous comments, however it worked perfectly for me on a chromebook that had a problem with its wireless network.

    However, since I didn't use it much, I give it a "four" for any potential future use.

    Speaking based on my experience, it doesn't reach 150 at all. I have a 120 internet connection. With speedtest on my laptop with an internal network card, I reach up to 120 mbps. As soon as I do a speedtest with this specific adapter on my desktop, it barely reaches 20 mbps. It occasionally disconnects, but it's enough to drive you crazy.

  • It disconnects and sometimes loses power. I wouldn't call it terrible, but it's not good either. It's mediocre. It justifies the price of 5 euros

    I have it for a month and only the first week it worked satisfactorily. From then on, constant disconnections and inability to connect on a regular basis. Every day I have to reinstall the drivers from scratch and search for the problem for half an hour. It's not worth its money.

    I bought it to have internet on an old computer I have in the village, by connecting it to my mobile phone. It recognized it immediately, and for the past 6 days that I have been using it, I haven't experienced any disconnections. I have a range of about 4-5 meters away from my phone. I hope I helped

  • I don't know if there is a problem with the devices I connected, but it has a very short range. It also has some occasional interruptions in the connection. For its price (I bought it for around 8 euros), it's decent. However, I would look for something of higher quality/power in a future purchase.

    Good range, but it frequently crashes on Windows 10, it was much more stable on Windows 7. I use it on a desktop computer to avoid the cable from the router.

  • It's not much good, for example I have 100 Mbps and with a previous TP-LINK extender it reached 100/100, now with this one it reaches 2.5/100. I do not recommend it.

  • For me, I had to make the adjustment that my friend jimk mentioned: "change in the settings through the hardware properties the wavelength from 20/40 to just 20 to have a stable connection." And it works like a charm.

  • It's not for much use. If the computer is right next to the router, it somewhat works, otherwise forget it. In any case, the 150 Mbps is science fiction.
