Incredibly strong signal where wifi was weak with the internal antenna.

The antenna will generally provide better signal pick up then any built in card in a laptop

In addition, the signal is quite poor on the one I have received

Easy to use, easy to install, strong signal, hasn't dropped a signal for me

Boost my signal by 2 and 3 bars.

The signal is strong with this one

We have shared WiFi that is 250Mbps, but I could never get a good signal with my laptop

Plugging this into desktops and laptops helps give a VERY strong signal.

With this device attached to a window (velcro), and the USB run to my laptop, I can reach a steady signal that allows download speeds upwards of 5 or 6 Mbit/s, the same max I usually get inside, and trouble free web surfing 95% of the time.

Works well and has strong signal.

Excellent signal, fast speeds,

My laptops signal while in the trailer was 2 bars, and the signal dropped frequently enough to be useless.

Even with a 4w amplifier connected to it the best signal I can manage is -85-90db, which is unusable, and worse than the dumpster fire of a generic

This gives me much better signal than the internal wireless adapter that's in my PC

arrived yesterday , my new Acer laptop had issues with a weak signal and numerious dropped connections

We had recently changed routers to the TP Link brand (after many years with Linksys), yet the downstairs computer washaving some speed troubles despite a strong signal.

Very easy to install and it pulls a strong signal from the router at the other end of the house.

Now, I didn't compare side-by-side with a unit that has a built-in antenna, but I am getting pretty decent signal strength with this unit, and is more than enough to watch youtube videos, for example.

Of course, there's no reason why you couldn't buy your own USB extension cord and use that to improve the signal with a more conventional USB wi-fi adapter

Great signal strength, small and easy to install

Works great - strong signal strength, and ability to move it away from under the desk helps immensely.

just wasn't a good signal

good signal quality, plug N play

It's worked perfectly and never experiences dropped signal issues like the others I tried.

Good signal strength through the range I needed.

If you have a bad wifi signal, you will be somewhat limited with any unit you lose

The distance from the bedroom to the router is approximately 50 feet and the signal is perfect

I get stronger signal thanks to the external antenna

Excellent for detection and use of weak WiFi signals

This wifi adapter has worked out for me as best that it can since I use it in the basement and that hinders the signal from time to time.

I tried it at work where the incoming signal was too weak and I could not connect to the internet.

Great signal under both Linux (kernel 4.2) and Windows 7

However, I found that it didn't pull in a strong signal from my router, which is about 50 feet away.

I purchased this external wifi adapter hoping to get a stronger signal and was not disappointed

I currently have it installed in a windows 10 machine that sits in my basement and is able to get excellent signal from my router 2 floors above

Perfect and strong signal.

and I still get a strong signal

great signal

The TP-Link connected after multiple installs, but to be honest, was worse signal, not real bad, but I can't connect to Netflix for more than a few seconds here and there, then no internet at all for periods of time

It seems like its a decent signal

Good signal also beyond thick concrete wall, where other devices have hard time

Good strong signal-great product-even came packaged with a short USB extension cord to relocate the dongle if necessary.

The signal is slightly better than my built-in wireless but this does come with a USB extension cable so it can be moved around to pick up

so I could work away from the living room and noise, however I lost the internet signal.

8.1The signal is 50 % stronger than my laptop

So cheap and works amazingly well, I'm far away from these cablewifi-twcwifi hotspots which means i have a very poor signal

The device is only about 40 feet away from a stock Verizon FIOS router with little to nothing in the way and barely has enough signal strength for reliable streaming

I have a weak signal where my office is, and compared to my laptop's wifi, and my ancient usb adapters, this is awesome.

I'm getting much better results through my alfa wifi external antenna, it's built well and arrived quickly but expected better signal from local wifi.

good reception of even overall weak signals, the software integrates with other wifi software pretty well, including the sometimes hard to use dell wireless console

, I get a good signal and set up was easy.

Easy to set up, gets a good signal from a large geographical vicinity, transfer speed as specified.

At around 30 feet away from the router speeds drop to 30-60MBps with around 2 concrete walls inbetween, you just need to find somewhere to place it to get a good signal

Allows better placement for optimal signal visibility

Fast speeds (keeps up with high speed internet), and I like that I can move it to a location where it will receive the best signal

After checking the router and making sure the issue was not with the equipment, we realized the wi-fi was simply having trouble picking up a strong signal where is was in the house

I was able to get a decent signal from the router in my parent's house out to their detached shop, which is about 100 feet and through a steel sheet metal wall.

Compared to my computer's internal antenna, this TP-LINK antenna gets a stronger signal--about 1 to 2 bars stronger, and the connection is much more stable.

While it was definitely a large improvement over the rather poor signal strength of the onboard WiFi adapter, I still had to purchase an external TP-Link TL-

Picks up more signals than my laptop can and gets a better signal

I also am able to attach a directional antenna on the unit and go many hundred of feet and not lose the signal.

I installed and I got a strong WiFI signal immediately (before it was quite poor)

If you need an adapter to pull in weak signals, this is the one for you.

After installing the software and plugging in the antenna I was able use an xfinity free wifi that I previously could not due to weak signal

It loses very few packets and has great signal strength

Even after the interface is recognized, it will not be used or updated by the Network Manager unless you force the link up manually.(The Panda comes up as wlan0; the TP-LINK AC600 comes up as ra0.)I have no clue as to why the TP-LINK receives such a noisy signal where the Panda does not

If your router is far away and your getting a poor signal and want to improve it, then I would recommend this adapter.

The download speeds are terrible, less than 1mb/s

However with this device I was able to achieve a stable 5G connection.

Other devices, working as per usual

This is not the product fault as it is advertised for PC and Mac use.
