It's like giving your device a Wi-Fi makeover—one that actually works.

Easy setup and quick speeds! Does its job perfectly!
What can I say? Does exactly what it says!I took it out of the box, plugged it into a USB port, it was instantly recognised, entered my WiFi password into Windows and done! Literally a 2 minute setup. My Three 5G Router is in the other room yet this connects to it easily and gives me similar speeds to what I get on my phone stood right next to the router. My pings in games is good too!The price is great, less than £20, solves the problem its made for, great build quality, not overly big so it fits in the back of the PC just fine without standing out...Would defo recommend, beats my old WiFi adapter I've had for years easily.

Perfect except for some short-range 2.4GHz interference
I got two of the UE302C dongles to get dual 2.5G ports on my networking machine. They work great, don't overheat and the ethernet cable is securely in place, so the connection is stable.Their own USB-C connection isn't sufficiently shielded though, so they cause a lot of 2.4GHz interference due to them being USB 3 within about a foot. This caused issues with a Zigbee device nearby. Placing its antenna further away solves this, but this is a drawback to keep in mind given that TP-Link could've shielded this cable better pretty easily.It's a flat-style cable, which I find more annoying than helpful as well.They work perfectly otherwise though and reach the advertised speed (connected to an ARM machine running Linux)

Good signal strength
Good value for money with great signal strength and speed and being adjustable the optimum signal xan easily be found. Plug and play so no messing about and has been very reliable over more than a year.

Simple set up and works great !
I had been relying on a cheapo Chinese dongle but when it finally expired I bought this TP-LINK product from Amazon. It comes with an instruction leaflet and a set up CD which makes the setup process very easy in Windows 10.I had to download an earlier version of the setup software for my Windows 7 Ultimate setup on my multi boot PC. Once I had done that, the install process was as easy as the Windows 10 install.It works so much better than the old dongle, no waiting around for it to connect to my router, and Internet speed is twice as fast as it used to be.Now listening to Amazon Music with none of the problems that I used to have when I was using the cheapo dongle. I have Vodafone Fibre, I am now getting 100% reliable 110Mbps download speeds, twice as fast as the Chinese dongle could manage.

Stopped working after a few weeks.
It's tripe. Starts out working fine – worked a treat in fact – and then after a month, it randomly drops packets, connections, signals... It would look like I have a stable internet connection, but it was clearly malfunctioning, voice calls were completely unusable, running updates half of them would fail...And it only became clear what the problem was the day after the refund/return window.

Absolutely Brilliant.
Brilliant value for money and the signal is excellent.Needed to move my PC upstairs while work is being done, and lost access to my ethernet connection.With the PC upstairs and the router in my front room, the WIFI signal is great.Even better, you can override the connection speed between 2.5 and 5 ghz in the driver control panel, for routers that decide what protocol to use.And even forcing the TP Link to 5ghz, my link speed is amazing.So, well done TP Link your product is fantastic.Highly recommended.No surprise this product is number 1 in the top ten list of USB WIFI adapters as I found out later.

Didn't improve my speed
I bought this hoping it would increase the speed cap on my Predator Helios 300 (2018). I’m on a 600 Mbps connection. My phone gets 500 to 600 Mbps easily, but my laptop always caps at around 300 Mbps.I tried this TP-Link dongle, installed the driver from their website, and connected to 5 GHz. On Ookla Speedtest, I get around 360 Mbps. But I get the same speed even without the dongle, just using my laptop's internal Wi-Fi (Intel 9560). So I’m wondering if I’m doing something wrong.The dongle works, no crashes, and installation was easy. But it didn’t actually improve my speed, which is the only reason I got it.
