ASUS USB-N53 Dual Band (2.4GHz 300Mbps/5GHz 300Mbps) Wireless-N USB Adapter, Graphical Easy Interface, Live Signal Monitor

Pros: Getting 5 bars upstairs through walls and what not. Utility program is easy to use. It was free with the Asus RT-N66U

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: Can't beat free~!

Pros: Came with my ASUS RT-N66U.

Connects at a solid 300Mbps every time.

Cons: None

Pros: None.

Cons: 5Ghz band issue.

Other Thoughts: I am tech guy and never had to deal with a bad product like this. Tried this product on Win 7/XP/Ubuntu. In all situations I can't see the 5Ghz SSID. Never dealt with a return with newegg,so will see how it goes.

Pros: Plug it in, it works.

Cons: None.

Pros: The 2.4GHz signal works fine and the signal is pretty strong. One egg.

Cons: The adapter does not pick up 5 GHz signals from the router. I have windows 7 and installed all the latest drivers from the website, and even tried windows update drivers, but after several hours of trying to get it to work it never did.

Other Thoughts: I got this as a gift for buying an Asus router. I partly decided to get the router because of this free gift. Do not buy this if you have Windows 7 and plan to use the 5GHz feature they advertise because it does not work. I spoke with 2 Asus representatives and they had no idea what the problem was either. One of them tried to tell me that my computer was too old and wouldn't work with 5GHz. What? Because this product does not work as advertised, and after many hours of trying to get it to work, I think this product deserves 1 egg.

Pros: I also got this to go along with the ASUS RT-AC66U Dual-Band router. Both turned out to be valuable and worthwhile. My laptop with the factory-equipped WiFi adapter only gave me the standard 65Mbps on the 2.4GHz band. I disabled it and plugged this puppy in. I created a 2.4 GHz band network and a 5 GHz band network on the RT-N66U router and now I get 216 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band network and 300 Mbps on the 5GHz band network! With a Plextor SSD and this wireless adapter, new life was bred into this 4 year old laptop. VERY happy! BTW, Tech support from Asus on the router was first rate the first week I got it. Firmware setup was somewhat daunting at first after having been used to 2 D-Link Dir655 routers for a few years but, after tinkering a bit, nothing but stability so far.

Cons: A little expensive for the router but the included adapter was a bonus! All in all, there is a premium for the latest innovation in routers and wifi adapters. Since an Ethernet cable in one of my network PCs is almost impossible, I do a lot of GB transfers via wireless. This combo is a fine welcome to Paradise finally.

Pros: -Ability to get 2.4 and 5ghz bands
-Easy installation
-Looks pretty
-Easy to use software

Cons: Size. It is pretty fat WITHOUT the extension cable.

Other Thoughts: Such an improvement over my old netgear adapter! Went from 54down and 8up to just about 70down and 11up!

Paired with an ASUS N-750 dual band router

Pros: Was great when it was working.

Cons: Failed after 2 months

Other Thoughts: Will be contacting Asus since it has a 2 year warranty. Will update if something happens.

Pros: This device uses both 2.4ghz and 5ghz bandwidths.It also comes with a cool usb cable that allows it to be plugged into a port without covering up it's neighboring port and has some sort of stiff wire that allows you to point or position it in the air.

Cons: Microsoft update will attempt to have you use a driver that will only run it in 2.4ghz mode. You have to manually go download the most current version from Asus.

Other Thoughts: I won this device at a raffle and it has surprised me greatly on well it works for a wifi device internal antennas.

Pros: Works like it should. No issues so far.

Cons: Asus software is annoying to use, quickly uninstalled and used windows drivers only.
