Price
Great value, easy to use, plug and play with a windows laptop.
Well worth it, just make sure it's right for your product!
For extra value for money, look in amazon warehouse.
Shipping
Connected to my laptop and windows 11 picked it up quickly and without any configurations.
Competitiveness
Has already lasted longer than 3 other cheaper versions from a well-known auction site
I'm surprised just how much more snappy the loading of web pages is compare to the anker one this replaces!
I was sceptical as this was cheaper than all the alternative brands but i need not have worried.

The ethernet port on the laptop was faulty and wouldnt hold the cable in place so this adapter enabled connection via a usb port

Most of the time the wifi on my laptop is fast enough but there are some times when i have really large file to move and the 250mbitssec the wifi gives just takes too long

I bought this to get round an issue with my laptops wifi card and despite the official description implying it wasnt suitable for linux i saw others had suggested it did work and took a chance

Fortunately it does work perfectly fine on arch linux straight out the box no fiddling or installation of anything required

I dont like that the instructions and the official description on amazon both give the impression it isnt suited to linux

Obviously there are numerous flavours of linux so some may have problems but why amazon cant use some catch all language that at least suggests its often possible to use it with linux would be trivial and much better than having to have customers delve into reviews like this one and others online for a nonofficial answer

Although a driver disk was included it was not required
