Why this product

Dual-band for flexible network access

Connect on either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band, giving you the option to prioritise range or speed depending on your environment.

Up to 867 Mbps on 5 GHz

The 5 GHz band supports up to 867 Mbps, while the 2.4 GHz band reaches up to 400 Mbps, handling HD streaming and lag-sensitive gaming.

USB 3.0 interface

The USB 3.0 port supports up to 4.8 Gbps data transfer and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 ports.

MU-MIMO for better network efficiency

With MU-MIMO, it can maintain two simultaneous data streams, improving throughput when paired with a compatible MU-MIMO router.

Mini form factor for portability

Its compact size means it stays in your USB port without getting in the way and is easy to carry between machines.

WPA/WPA2 encryption supported

Wireless connections are protected by WPA/WPA2 security standards.

  • Connects via USB 3.0 and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 ports.
  • Works with any standard Wi-Fi router; MU-MIMO throughput improvements require a compatible MU-MIMO router.
  • MU-MIMO benefits are only realised when paired with a MU-MIMO-capable router.
  • Linux is not listed as a supported operating system.

Best for

  • Desktop or laptop users adding Wi-Fi to a machine with a USB port but no built-in wireless adapter.
  • HD video streamers and online gamers who need the lower-latency 5 GHz band at up to 867 Mbps.
  • Users who travel and need a compact adapter that fits easily in a bag alongside a laptop.
  • Windows and Mac households that need broad OS compatibility across Windows 7 through 11 and Mac OS X.

Trade-offs

  • Linux users — Linux is not among the supported operating systems listed by the vendor.
  • Users needing maximum MU-MIMO gains without a compatible MU-MIMO router, as the feature requires router-side support.
  • Environments operating outside 0°C–40°C, as this falls outside the rated operating temperature range.
