EDUP AC1300 WiFi Dongle Adapter for PC, USB 3.0 Long Range High Gain Dual Band Anetnna 5GHz/2.4GHz, 802.11ac Wireless adapter for PC Desktop Laptop Supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7,Mac 10.6~10.15

Nothing to dislike, plugged into my desktop computer, windows 10 recognised it, put my WiFi password in, and immediately started to work. Well worth the money.

This is easy Plug-and-play installation, especially on Windows 10 and 11.I love the way that the antenae can be folded away when not in use.It supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks for better range and speed.The Wireless AC support offers good speeds, especially on the 5GHz band, though actual performance may vary depending on network conditions and distance from the router and as long as it is plugged into a USB 3.0 socket.Overall, the adapter is a reliable option for adding or upgrading Wi-Fi connectivity to a desktop PC or laptop. It's particularly well-suited for those who need better range and speed, especially in larger homes or offices.

The Wi-Fi adapter arrived safely, and it come nicely packaged inside a well-illustrated retail box.I’ve tried the adapter with Windows 10 & 11, both installed the drivers automatically without needing the included disk. The disk includes the REALTEK USB Wireless LAN Utility which provides more advanced settings for the adapter but its not required. Windows picks the adapter up as a Realtek 8812BU Wireless card.Obviously because of the design Its quite a large USB adapter so not only does it stick out quite a bit buts its approx. 3cm wide so if you have another USB port next to it then you won’t be able to use the other port while the adapter is plugged in. The two antennas can be adjusted to pretty much any angle you like.Having external antennas means this adapter has some seriously strong reception, miles better than any other wireless device I own including my S22 Ultra and brand-new laptop. It picks up wireless networks in my area that I haven’t even seen before and when connected to my own network the signal is strong and stable no matter where I go in the house.I have 1Gbps broadband and when connected to my Wi-Fi 6 router the best download speed I have seen using the adapter is around 240Mbps which is more than fast enough for anything I need to do or watch, and it might even be held back by the performance of my laptop which only has an Intel i3 CPU.I also tried the adapter in my gaming pc and found it to be very stable when online gaming, my ping never went higher than 50ms which is the same as I normally get under a wired connection anyway. Another good use for this adapter is if your main wired internet fails and you can use it to hot-spot onto your computer from your phone’s 4G/5G signal.Overall, I really like this Wi-Fi adapter as its easy to use, has fantastic reception, excellent speeds and it performs flawlessly. It’s a great bit of kit that represents excellent value for money and I’m more than happy to recommend it. An easy five stars from me, buy with 100% confidence!

I was sent EDUP 1300M instead of the EDUP AC1300, as I am on Windows 11 the EDUP 1300M does not work and as I am abroad it is pointless trying to return it.

Send other simple product not as is in the pictures installation via cd laptop pc and laptop don’t have pot for cd bad product out of date

I have a very old Surface Pro 3 which only supports 2.4Ghz WiFi. Due to the age of the laptop I no longer use it as my main laptop, however i do use it to watch video's in the bathroom. The problem with this is that my bathroom is on the other side of the house and my 2.4Ghz WiFi signal struggles to stream on occasions. I know 5Ghz wifi doesn't have the range of 2.4Ghz but it does have hugely increased bandwidth. I don't think the WiFi card can be changed on the Surface Pro 3 either, so I had limited upgrade options.When I saw this product I decided to give it a go to see if it would help my connection with streaming. My laptop runs Windows 10 and this device was as simple as plugging into the USB port and hey presto it worked - I did not even need to use the driver disc that came with the dongle. I took my laptop up to the bathroom and did two speed tests, one with the normal in built WiFi chip and one with the dongle. I have uploaded pictures of my results. As you can see the proof is in the pudding! With the dongle I was getting a massive speed increase in relation to downloads and a minor increase in upload. The download speed was fantastic with nearly a 10 fold increase in speed.The dongle is pretty chunky.. but that doesn't bother me. It has multi directional antennas which means you can point them towards your router, which in turn may improve the signal.Would I recommend this product? If you need an upgrade to WiFi AC/have an older laptop that doesn't support 5Ghz WiFi signals then definitely! The product does what it is suppose to do and does it well! Even if you have an older desktop and are not tech savy, or just not confident to change the WiFi card, then this really is a plug and play upgrade. Value for money wise it is excellent.
