Overall Review: I just received this Netis Dual Band USB 3.0 WiFi Adapter and I was very impressed. I recently purchased and evaluated an Edimax AC1200 Dual Band Wireless adapter that I found to have excellent performance. This Netis WF2190 Dual Band adapter had even better performance. I tested this Netis WF2190 adapter with a HP Elitebook 8460p Laptop with a 3rd Gen Intel i5 CPU. I uploaded and downloaded iso media files to a Lenovo TS140 server connected by CAT6 gigabit ethernet connected to an Asus RT-AC66R router running Asus-Merlin Firmware ver 374.40. The distance between the Netis WF2190 and the Asus RT-AC66R was approximately 13 meters with three thick sheetrock walls between containing fiberglass insulation, electrical conduit runs, metal waste lines, romex electrical wiring, and various types of low voltage cables. When using the Edimax AC1200 wireless adapter I was very pleasantly surprised to get 14-15MB/sec (112-120Mbps) upload transfer rates on the 5GHz frequency band. This was the best transfer rate that I have ever achieved with any other wireless adapter to that time, and I have tried D-Link, Netgear, and Asus adapters. I did the same test with the Netis WF2190 Adapter. I replaced the stock 5db antennas with TP-Link 8db High Gain antennas. The upload speeds that I got exceeded 20MB/sec (160Mbps). This was the highest wireless transfer upload rate that I have ever seen and significantly better than the Edimax which was the best to date. I believe that the higher wireless transfer rate of the Netis adapter is because of the external antennas. The Edimax adapter only has stub extendable antenna which just doesn't have the length or area to pick up good signal. The replaceable external antennas on the Netis are easily 4X the size of the Edimax. The antennas I put on are at least 8X the size. It works great with the cradle. It wouldn't be acceptable plugged directly into the USB port on a laptop. Another advantage of the Netis adapter over the Edimax adapter was that the Netis WF2190 adapter worked excellent with Windows 7 64-bit Pro OS. I plugged the adapter into a USB 3.0 port on the HP Elitebook 8460p and Windows 7 automatically loaded the driver without the need to use the installation CD. The wireless connection has been rock stable with the Netis adapter too. With the Edimax AC1200 adapter, I keep getting conflicts and dropped connections. I have had to reload the drivers several times to get the Edimax adapter to actually work. When I was transferring 10GB or more of media files the adapter would drop the connection and would not reconnect by itself. I was willing to tolerate that for the sake of the high transfer speeds. With the Netis adapter, I can get higher speeds and stable connection! This adapter seems to run very warm under constant high load. I am concerned about the longevity of this adapter because of that. I gave it 4 eggs because of that concern. I would recommend th
