I have four old laptops, two of which had no wifi adapter. The oldest, a Gateway Solo, is from the mid 90's running Windows XP and the other is a Dell Inspiron. Both are network accessible thanks to this tiny device. Well worth the money.
I needed a backup internet connection for when my horrible Comcast internet service goes down. I needed to find a USB adapter for my desktop PC so I could tether (wireless connect my PC) to my AT&T phone and stay online. The AE6000 is very small and offers a fast and reliable connection. Was an easy install on Win 10. I use the second AE6000 with my Raspberry Pi 2 Rune Audio music server.
My PC lost contacts with the outside world via the Internet. After trying the other ports of my PC, I decided to visit the manufacturer's website, but all to no avail. I tried their chat window, and was advised to purchase a new wireless adaptor. I purchased the suggested product and now I am re-connected to the world. I would recommend the Linksys Product AE6000 to anyone seeking to get connected, because this product is fast.
I bought this s few weeks ago. My NIC card was not capable of 5Ghz. The Linksys AE6000 Wireless-AC Mini USB Adapter put it right up there. Instillation was a snap. Just plug it in to a USB port and Windows does the rest.
Pleased with performance until after upgrading to Windows 10. Would like to see a driver so can enjoy the improved performance on Windows 10.
Succeeded where other USB wifis failed in compatibility across all my boots. Would have been strike 3 if failed. Windows setup surprisingly not as smooth as expected. After loading included driver, still had to upgrade driver downloading from manufacturer site. 5G hot across all boots on my LAN.
I wanted to update equipment to work with win 10 and found out that the install disk doesn't work and only drivers for win 8.1 were supplied.
As far as the wifi goes it works very well I am getting down load speeds in the three hundreds the only problem I have is if you barely touch the USB stick it goes off so as long as you don,t touch it it works good.
It worked well for a couple of weeks, then my Windows 10 laptop started crashing to a blue screen of death with the following message: "Your PC ran into a problem and it needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you. Stop Code: BAD POOL HEADER". This happened several (3 or 4) times per day. Investigating this, I came upon a suggestion to remove all external devices from the laptop, so I removed the AE6000. The laptop then worked fine without error for several days. I then plugged the device back in and within 2 minutes the laptop crashed again with the same message. I then went to the Linksys support page to see if there was a driver update available, and their latest driver version was 5.01.25.0 which is the exact version that I have. So, I would not recommend this device for Windows 10.
I purchased this to compliment my new Linksys AC1900 router. I have owned 6 Linksys routers, but this adaptor is total disappointment, only works on 2.4 gh and doesn't do that very well. I had to purchase a Netgear AC adaptor to get the ac speeds, lots of bad comments on the internet about this adaptor and Win 8.1. No solutions that I am aware of, probably the last Linksys adaptor I will purchase, My next router will not be a Linksys!!
