Having their software didn't solve the speed issue like

Good software and a nice performance increase of an N class I had before

Also the drivers and utility software that TP Link gives you is obsolete on Windows 10 as well

Useless windows Application software that will haunt you

The software was too much work

Software seems a little limited and not strait forward.

My experience is most likely a strange software incompatibility, but I'm running a very simple and clean Win7 pro installation on a fast machine with all brand-name parts, fully updated

So how to rate this, the software at t his point is useless

I had to install the oldest driver they had available manually because the recent installers cannot detect the device connected to the pcie port.overall, i give it a 3, for a great potential laid to waste because of terrible software support

I can't tell you what the software is like, but I can tell you Windows does a fine job without it.

Also the drivers and utility software that TP Link gives you is obsolete on Windows 10 as well

Also, it comes with software for selecting your preferred wireless connection and the software is not obtrusive or gimmicky like I expected it to be

Having their software didn't solve the speed issue like

Quick and easy to install, user friendly software, amazing connection strength and speeds!

The software that includes the utility was frustrating it kept stealing focus from other

I started my computer up, inserted the install disk and the software did all the work

Plug the card in a PCI-E slot, autorun the driver CD, run either TP-Link's proprietary software or use Windows wireless utility to input your network key (sure glad I had written that down where I could find it) and it's off to the movies

Software was even easier

The software that came on the CD is useless, but I guess every company needs to have their bloatware.

Software is junk

I used the Windows 10 driver and the utility from the website, but it couldn't break 15mb/s with 75mb/s internet

This causes issues installing, as well as if you are tech savy enough to install it via drivers

Works as it described

Easily installed and still working fine as of summer 2014.

It's being severely bottlenecked by my internet speed, but it's going as fast as it can with low ping

I wonder why this is listed as one of the best pci-e network cards available

Installation was a snap as long as there is a PCI-E slot available.
