Highlights
Quality
Great wifi adapter and drivers are easy to install
Dramatically improved signal strength and no more dropped signal at all with great throughput

Price

Thanks for offering products such as this at a reasonable price

Shipping
I give 5 stars because i immediately experienced the fast speed once installed
