I would say its a heck of a deal at the 10 dollar price range. it instantly connects when waking from sleep or hibernate, or with restarts. It has only loss connection once in the couple weeks I've been using it and that was while playing around with a cell phone program, sort of a weird root program on a usb tethered phone - This adapter is in use almost constantly here, connected 24/7 except when the laptop finds time to sleeps or hibernates. The o nly negatives I see is it doesn't have built in blue tooth & even though the link speed is 866.5 its only usb2 which limits the lan speed to around 25MB/s or 200mbps.

My old laptop on Broadcom N built in wifi would see a max of 8 access points. Normally I only use the AC band but it seems to work fine on typical wifi N too. Everytime I look, it says I have a 866.5 mbps connection to my asus Broadcom based ac wifi access point. The antenna folds out so it looks kind of like a big T, for best signal strength. The placement might be weird on some laptops as it definitely would take getting used to it sticking up on the side of the keyboard - luckily my laptop has a usb slot behind the screen where its totally out of the way.

Bought this for a T520 Lenovo laptop & I would say it works equally as well as a built in dual antenna Broadcom AC adapter in my home.
