The N300 router with this N600 adapter really improved my transfer rates: with my 50Mbps internet service, I went from ~20Mbps with my old adapter to ~50Mbps with the N600 adapter and the N300 router.Īfter a couple of weeks I started getting frequent connection losses. Then my old G router died, and I got an N300 router. Overall Review: I received this a a gift to replace my 802.11g adapter, and it worked just fine with G-wireless. Again that really isn't an issue on the 5ghz band but since I'm about 10ft away from my router with 4 walls blocking the signal, I have to take this for what it is.Ĭons: Seems that connection drop-outs are all too common. Go to wikipedia if you want more knowledge on that subject.Īlso, I live in an apartment complex so the signals for the lower band can be affected sometimes by the 150 other radio signals flying around. One item to note is that 5ghz is a higher frequency, so putting this in another room may get lower xfer rates and worse connections especially considering the consistency of your walls. Sometimes is great, other days not so much. However, the 5ghz is hard to pick up sometimes. The 2.7ghz I get out of my $160 router works great. However, Win7 64-bit in my new rig seems to do quite better.
