5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for my needs, May 22, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Adapter (AE3000) (Personal Computers)
Pros:
- adapter functions great with our new Asus N66U router
- USB connection: no fiddling around inside your computer case
- includes a stand and chord so you can get the antenna away from the computer
- solid construction: feels sturdy for such a small device
- setup is a breeze

Cons:
- A little on the expensive side, but you get what you pay for

Unless you are on a very tight budget, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this adapter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy setup and faster performance 5GHz wi-fi, May 12, 2012
This review is from: Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Adapter (AE3000) (Personal Computers)
Just upgraded my Linksys AE2500 Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Adapter to Linksys AE3000 to increase performance for internal file sharing and video streaming. Setup was easy, took 1 minute....and performance increased. Used my Linksys EA4500 App-Enabled N900 Dual-Band Wireless-N Router with Gigabit and USB with this USB adapter on the 5 GHz radio band. Overall, good easy upgrade with performance benefits.

My installation didn't work from the CD-ROM. Asus tech support asked me to download the latest drivers from the web.

--> I don't know why they ship the CD-ROM. It's almost always better to use the latest drivers. Asus should at least show the driver web page in the quick start guide.

The new software also didn't work. Tech support had me remove the utility and just install the USB driver. He said that Windows manages the device better than the utility.

--> Why do they suggest using a utility if Windows does a better job anyway?

After all that, it turned out the radio in my device was dead on arrival. They suggested I return the unit to Amazon, as they couldn't send me an advance exchange. I was very glad I purchased this through Amazon, so the return was a snap.

--> It's not Amazon's problem that Asus shipped a dead unit. IMHO, Asus did not stand behind this product.

From reading the other reviews, I'm sure this is... Read more
