Doesn't work with the Win 10 Fall Creators Update!!
Buyer beware!! This unit no longer works with the latest version of Windows 10 - the Fall Creators update. Windows 'sees' the device but it is never activated. Tried using the Windows 10 drivers specified in here, but those didn't work either.Tried in two Windows 10 machines with the Fall update - didn't work in either of them! So basically I purchased this for nothing!!

Cheap and reliable
Works as intended. Initial setup is easy and I've had no lost connections. I did a speed test through Buckeye Express using this wireless adapter. 21.5 Mbps download; 3.16 Mbps upload; 1ms latency; 10ms jitter.On hard wire I get over 30Mbps; so it is slower (which is expected).

Does not support Hosted mode.
Does NOT support Hosted mode on Windows 10. If you install the included software, it supposedly supports SoftAP, although I could never get another computer to see the software access point. Otherwise, it seems to work fine.

Wireless AC 600Mbps USB Network Adapter, Dual
Was worried about a USB connection making for a slower solution, but can't tell. Seems to work great! Had some problems with the driver, but turned out that the device was showing up on a second page of wireless connections. Customer service was very helpful!

Nice small size and works fast on AC wifi network
Nice small size and works fast on AC wifi network. Doesn't protrude so far out of the usb slot like many other types.

Great upgrade for wireless adapter
I have the AC band on my router but my work laptop was only equipped to access the "g" band. This device worked perfectly and I have access to the larger band. You have to set you properties prefer this device over your build adapter so that it becomes the first option when connecting to a wireless network.
