  1. JaedynJ

    Really good connection, works a lot better than my old one. I would recommend ethernet or LAN cable over wireless, but for people without that option, this is the best adapter you can probably get for a reasonable price.

  2. CharlesC

    Great piece of equipment. The price was great as well.

  3. PatProano

    Perfect component to connect my computer to the WiFi.

  4. BetterAlternatives

    A well priced and great choice for WiFi adapter. Our #1 go to for our clients

  5. ChrisW

    Great size and seemed great, but warning… does not work with all computers. Check compatibility. It caused major issues with my home-built PC.

  6. Novonje

    I do love this adapter it’s small enough to fit almost anywhere!! Holds a very stable and strong connection. Yet If left plugged in when device is powered off It my struggle holding a stable connection after powering on. I found unplugging and plugging back in after device is fully booted up helps or leave the auto connect option off. Other than that it’s a solid adapter!!

  7. Unknown

    For price paid this is a really great, user friendly product. The only pain is that is doesn’t come with a disc or anything to install the driver so you need to find a way to get onto the Internet to download the driver onto a flash drive and transfer it to the device you’re trying to install this unit on. Easy for a techy person but might be a little much for a “layman”.

  8. ReginaS117

    Works great ! Did exactly what we needed it to do !

  9. Troublesome

    This Wi-Fi connector helped me so much when I broke my pcs internet connection antenna! Connection was easy along with set up!

  10. LDSPARKY

    Bought a custom tower that didn’t have WiFi included. This is a great alternative and runs fast! I did have to hardwire the computer temporarily in order to have the driver installed.

  11. JustinS

    Works great installed on my computer to get better signal to my router and it’s a noticable difference and the speeds are faster.

  12. Unknown

    It does it job. Nothing else I can say about it…

  13. Tanner

    The Nighthawk AC1900 is a powerful wifi adapter! Netgear has outdone theirselves.

  14. ZenkiLSX

    I wasnt happy with how large it was, i returned it

  15. Taylor

    Solid connection even with two walls blocking it from the router. Well worth the price thats for sure.

  16. Trent

    I had great download speed and a strong connection apparently from across the apartment, however the connection kept cutting every 3 mins then reconnecting. Not good for gaming

  17. ICMx

    This driver will not install for Macs with OS 11 or later and therefore will not work on any modern Mac. If you read the technical specifications on the Netgear web site or talk to Netgear technical support, they will tell you that the last supported OS is 10.15.7. That is a rather important limitation that needs to be stated much more clearly. Before I knew this, I tried to install it on Mac OS Ventura and received an error message: “This package is incompatible with this version of Mac OS.” At least Best Buy made the return easy.

  18. MichaelR

    Works great and turned my wired from home PC into wireless and able to move computer out of living room.

  19. Ananththonony

    I had good internet before but now I get like 0 ping for all my games lol
    1 thing that bothers me is that it sometimes has to be manually reconnected to the internet not all the time tho

  20. Los24

    If you need to play online (pc,Xbox, or ps5) and can’t connect straight to your router… this is what you need trust me !!!! This works amazing ! No lag no nothing thanks god for this !

  21. Stryder64

    Installed very easily, great reception, great value!

  22. ElnaraM

    Works amazing.
    Good speed for games
    My son have no problems with it

  23. KittyCult

    Wifi adapters just aren’t going to be magic but this did work. I’d rather have a built in so I returned it but this was a good product. Worked as well as any of them I’d tried.

  24. Hailey

    Works amazing with Starlink with over 100mb downloads consistently. Great product, worked when others didnt.

  25. BrittenH

    I recently switched from Ethernet to Wireless. This has amazing reviews and I know why. my download speed and connectivity are 10 times faster. truly excellent and very easy to use

  26. Wastedmytimeandmoney

    Worked good for quite a while. Finds Wi-Fi in hotels without any issue. Outside of having to plug it in, works like the internal antenna on your laptop. If you need a product like this, get this one. It did stop working after about 3 years though.

  27. DaleW

    Reliable and fast way to get your desktop on your WiFi.

  28. JackY

    Needed this for the Nighthawk Router.
    Other than that, it helped alot.

  29. RidgeR

    Ideal purchase if ethernet is not an option, I’ve used Netgear products for many years and they consistently run faster and have white arrange the other Wi-Fi products and this product specifically is one of their best

  30. GavinM

    Very simple setup and reliable interface. Totally worth the bulky size.

  31. BrianT

    Very good product and ease of use. Though you will need to get the NETGEAR setup Genie onto the PC you are installing this device on. Thus you will need to download the Genie onto a USB mem from anotherPC or or use a hard-wire Ethernet connection on the target PC and then you wil lbe able to use the EASTY setup procedure.. and then you are up and going.

  32. BruceS

    The wifi device does exactly what it says it does. Works great. Easy to install and use.

  33. CraigG

    If you’re looking for a network adapter I would 100% recommend this one that may cost a little bit but it’s definitely worth it if your motherboard doesn’t already have one

  34. itsivxx

    Had to return..wasn’t able to grab signal 40 feet from my back room

  35. MauriceS

    Love this thing. Connects easy and very reliable. Easy to install.

  36. WalkerS

    Use it if you absolutely can not hard wire or use a wifi card.

  37. Mb55

    This definitely helps with WiFi if you don’t have the best WiFi. It’s a bit touchy so I recommend getting it set up but try not moving it afterwards.

  38. Nathaniel

    Product is great itself. Drivers are problematic. The latest one is a bit of a mess, but the one earlier gave me no problems. Fast and reliable when working. Just don’t update it.

  39. LoganB

    I went from 30-50 MBPS on a cheap usb adapter to over 300 using this!

  40. GeorgeC

    Got the job done. I needed good internet connection on my pc with a bad wireless card. The set up was easy and it worked right over my previous card. A little more expensive than the other options but i just wanted something to work well.

  41. Zach

    I travel with my gaming setup a lot, and my old wifi adapter was way to slow to do much of anything, however since using this I have never had any internet lag. It’s still wifi so it’s never going to be as good as wired, but its good for most uses

  42. JoshuaMushy

    Works great, fast speeds that are nearly the same as being on an Ethernet connection.

    NOTE: you need to have an internet connection in order to download the software from the website.

  43. ASHOK

    1/2 of the time it is not working
    and the wifi is not working

  44. Atlanta

    Works better than any other for the same price you can find, love the stand it comes with

  45. YuvalB

    This product helped me with the WiFi in the next room, but provided <50% of the speed I has in other areas of the house.

  46. LakeR8erDodgr

    Worked great for what I needed my wife brought her work computer home that wasn’t WiFi compatible and this worked like a charm. Easy to use, range was great and speed was good.

  47. Kooz

    Best WiFi adapter out there. Located in basement and no issues. Like the included stand.

  48. Wifiadapter

    Seems to be good so far. The app is odd however the device supports my 1GB connection.

  49. Hayden

    Bought this for a computer that was only wired in Internet, It does its job so well, though sometimes it will act funny if there are things in the way of where the router is at. I am a ways from my wireless router so i could just be distance

  50. Connor

    Very useful product, i have an older motherboard with no wifi chip.
