    • Works just fine in Windows but will stop working in Linux
This comes with a CD to install the necessary drivers, but it is only compatible with Windows. This isn't much of a problem for most, but I had a computer I could no longer use for Windows, and I was hoping I could keep using it with the Linux distro Ubuntu. I found some instructions online that allowed me to install drivers for this device, and it worked for a while. But it stopped working at the next kernel update, and I am reluctant to do the same inconvenient process to get it working again. Even if I can get it working again, because I had wanted to rely on this computer as one I could access remotely, if its wireless adapter stops working every once in a while, that's just not gonna work for me. It is important to check Linux is compatible for certain hardware if that's what you're looking for. If your desktop computer doesn't have wireless connectivity, you might want to go with a PCI-Express card instead of a USB device. ... show more

    • Be Aware that a WIFI2 sub-category is created in Windows 10 in the WIFI Icon in the Task Bar
The WIFI extender works as advertised. However in the WIFI icon on the Task Bar TWO folders are created: a WIFI folder and WIFI2 folder. The WIFI folder comes from the orginal WIFI host adapter driver from the WIFI hardware from the PC. The WIFI2 folder comes from the WIFI extender antenna plugged into the USB port. Basically, the WIFI folder is the old system and the WIFI2 folder is the new system from the antenna. The WIFI2 shows the more poweful and more numerous external WIFI connections Use these new connections to connect to your WIFI service. Recommended is downloading the latest driver software from the vendor website, ... show more

    • A wiFi adapter that works!
We recently stated using a Wireless Gateway internet system that uses a cell tower connection for internet communications. The Gateway is separated by a plaster wall to our pc tower. The data speed rates were not great using the internal Wi-Fi adapter. After installing this little device, the Wi-Fi speeds and connection improved drastically. It's easy to install and setup. I suggest using an USB extension cable (vs plugging it in the back of your pc, then mounting the adapter in a clear area. ... show more

    • How I got 802.11ac and 5G working in Windows 11
I've increased from 3 stars to 4 as a result of the following workaround. Can't give 5 stars because the workaround was necessary, and because it took many hours to find! The following apparently solves the problem of being stuck with 2.4G (Wifi 4). Despite all my previous efforts, the device would eventually revert to 802.11n which is limited to 2.4G and Wifi 4. Then I found this: 1) Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center. Identify the TP-Link adapter device. Right mouse -> Properties. Then Configure. Driver tab. Uninstall Device (and attempt to remove driver). Then IMMEDIATELY unplug the USB device. 2) Control panel -> Programs and features - TP-Link Archer driver (etc) - if it exists, uninstall it. 3) Plug in the Linksys Archer T3U into Windows 11 computer USB 3.0 port Then Right-click on This PC -> Manage; then select Device Manager. Under Network Adapters find TP-Link wireless USB Adapter Right mouse click on the device, then select Properties Go to the Advanced tab Click on "Wireless Mode". In the drop-down box, select IEEE 802.11ac Click on "OK" If the above solution does not remain successful, I will come back and edit again. ORIGINAL REVIEW This TP-Link AC-1300 Archer TCU Plus adapter works like it is supposed to.... but only IF you use the latest driver from the TP-Link web site. Based on my experience, the driver that is included on the DVD only gives you Wifi 4 (802.11n) compatibility. Similarly, when I plugged it in without first installing any driver, Windows only supplied a 802.11n driver. The driver I downloaded from the TP-Link web site gives Wifi 5 (802.11ac) compatibility. In Windows 11, once I installed this adapter and connected to a network, I checked what kind of connection I got via the Wifi icon on the bottom right of the task bar. I clicked on that icon, and then on the ">" symbol next to the Wifi connection. Then click on the blue "i" in the blue circle next to the connection. Under "Protocol" iit shows what kind of connection you have: Wifi 4 (802.11n) or Wifi5 (802.11ac). Be sure to install the new downloaded driver BEFORE you plug in the new adapter. Otherwise the 802.11n driver will be automaticaly installed by Windows, and you'll need to uninstall it before you can get the new driver to install properly. If you've already installed the driver from the disk that came with the adapter, you'll need to go into the Control Panel -> Programs and Features to uninstall it before installing the downloaded driver. If instead you attempt to install the downloaded driver without removing the one from the disk yourself, the downloaded installer will attempt to remove it, but will fail. It will appear to have worked, but you'll still get only 802.11n. Once I figured all that out and navigated it successfully, the adapter works wonderfully - significantly better than the adapter inside my PC. I've deducted two stars for the installation challenges. There are multiple ways to get it installed incorrectly. I suspect a lot of people are just using it as an 802.11n device without realizing it. I hope this review helps some people get the full benefits of this device. When properly installed, it is a significant improvement on the adapter inside my PC. ORIGINAL EDIT: I've had to turn off Windows driver updates and also uninstall Dell Support Assist because both services replace the driver for this adapter with an incorrect driver (which lacks 802.11ac support.) If you're not willing to do that, you might want to consider a different adapter. ... show more

    • Worked great for my ASUS AS6104T NAS
The product arrived on time and worked exactly as expected. It plugged into the front USB port on my AS6104T Network Drive and it works great. I moved my NAS to a different room, on a different floor than my modem and there was virtually no noticeable difference between the hardwired ethernet connection and the WiFi connection from this TP-Link Archer T3U Plus USB WiFi Adapter. I wish I had found this sooner. Would definitely recommend. ... show more

    • slow internet or disconnects are GONE!
Weve done everything possible to get my wifes computer to stop disconnecting, including the Spectrum folks come out and "fix" it. her computer became so slow that she couldnt use it anymore. So, I figured the wifi needed a stronger antenna, like a radiio needs sometimes. I Googled WIFI antennas then and came across this!! Problems are GONE! Her computer is faster than anybody elses I know! And Im not lying! also, it came with a disc to put in what madfe it work. i did have to figure out what part to install in a dropdown, but, nothing that most folks cant do. We are thrilled! As a matter of fact, I want to get two more for my computer and the TV! ... show more
