Pros & Cons
Pros
This adapter has surprisingly good signal strength for its size. It works right away, having probably the easiest connectivity and uptime of any adapter i've ever had. Ghz, 15 and 17 inch (last model as pbg4 ) and the original 802. 4.
It installs it's own driver and everything. Not setup and no compatibility issues. Great value and these installw ithout using the cd in windows 10/11.
It gets good enough speed, speed test. That's all i needed for it to do. This works great! Perfect for my needs.
Cons
This product is no good. Terrible item. Dropped signal about every 10 minutes. Also tried it on my laptop and it was dropped more frequent.

I expected this, but be aware that it is a poor receiver.
11 g (internal ) airport card made very slow connection over my comcast wifi n router .
Price
For the price i will buy more and i do recommend to anyone that needs a fantastic wireless adapter.
It was a great deal and i highly recommend getting a few of them for your projects.
Probably the best $7 i've spent on a computer, period.
Can't be the value or the price.
Shipping
Arrived quickly and was exactly as advertised.
Packaging/appearance
Oh also, that packaging was way nicer than i had expected for as cheap as it is.
Competitiveness
It actually gives better connection than the stock adapter in my lenovo g500.
You can search for "lenovo ds104195" and find the page (the ds104195 is a document id).
I bought this exact same product from wal-mart years ago.
Then i downloaded and installed the netis driver and utility on top of the realtek drivers.
