TP-Link Nano 2-in-1 USB Bluetooth WIFi Adapter AC600(Archer T2UB Nano)- Bluetooth 4.2 with 2.4G/5G Dual Band Wireless Network Adapter for Desktop PC, WPA3, Supports Windows 11,10, 8.1,8, 7

Due to a botched repair (My fault...again...) I had to convert the WLAN card slot in an older Yoga laptop to use an compact SSD card instead. This meant that the laptop no longer had onboard WiFi or Bluetooth. I am a retired Wi-Fi field engineer and I know a bit about client performance.First priority here was preventing damage to the USB port, which meant it had to project less than a half inch from the body. It also had to provide Bluetooth. My expectations for performance were minimal and I expected all kinds of grief from power management turning the adapter off during sleep, doze, etc. This adapter more than meets this size requirement.-And surprise surprise, it works much better than I'd hoped. It easily saturates my cable modem link (150 down, 15 up) and more importantly, the link is consistent during Teams meetings and voice calls. The AP I'm using is 10' away on the other side of a kitchen wall. My PHY rate is 250mbps as I write this (5Ghz, 80mhz channel, 1SS, Wi-Fi5/AC link) and the external mouse is BT connected. Too much attention is paid to signal strength and even data rate. What really matters is link consistency and this thing hits the mark.I've been using it for weeks and don't remember having any link drops or issues waking up from power save. There was one occurrence where the laptop went to sleep during a Google Voice call, and the stream was interrupted. It came right back after wiggling the mouse. (BT has been flawless).It's a little expense in my opinion, but as far as I know this is the smallest USB WLAN adapter out there so maybe it's worth the premium. It does allow me to keep this old (But expensive) laptop on the road for another year or two. It dropped right in to Windows 11 without any manual driver installation. My network is WPA-2 so I can't speak to WPA-3 support.I also messed with the super-cheap adapters you can by on the direct-from-china sites. Don't bother. While the size is right, they are consistently awful, even at $5. If you need a tiny Wi-Fi adapter, get this one.

My speed test went from 1.59 download and .43 upload to 29.0 download and 11.6 uploadI already had the other type for a few years so I decided to see if this would work better. I just plugged it in and used my wi fi password and it connected immediately. My signal strength is so much better now as you can see in the pictures The first pic is the new one and the second the old one so it was very slow.It was very easy to do it all, literally took about 1 minute.Since my computer doesn't connect well anymore I find this a very valuable source.

My Lenovo Yoga somehow got it WiFi drive uninstalled with an update and wouldn't work again even with reinstallation. But let me tell you, this product definitely did the job. I am now able to connect to WiFi which I wasn't able to do in a long time. I have to say this is great quality and I have had absolutely no issues with. Thank you!

I did a search on Amazon for a Wi-Fi dongle that would work with linux. This popped up and I ordered it. After about an hour and a half on the phone with tp-link customer service, there was no resolution to its inability to work with linux. I called back a few days later and got a different rep and was told it will never work with linux, only with Windows and Mac os. Worked great for windows, but that is not what I was looking for.

I love my older computer - it's an all-in-one with a giant monitor. But things have been going wrong here and there. Recently my security software did an update and shut down the computer. When I restarted it the next day it had no idea it even had a WiFi adapter. After a couple of hours of trying to get it fixed, I remembered that way back in the day I had a USB WiFi adapter for an older laptop that worked really well so I figured there'd be something similar for me now. I ordered this, it was inexpensive and was delivered to my somewhat-rural home several hours later. Plugged it in, restarted the computer and it works perfectly! Best use of time and money - I was losing my mind trying to fix it and I knew I was going to get more and more stressed as things didn't work so this was awesome!

The internal wireless part of my laptop quit working so I ordered this little USB plug in and it works perfectly.

For those who struggle using this on Windows server OS ,Run this powershell commands first :Install-WindowsFeature -Name Wireless-Networking -RestartStart-Service WlanSvcSet-Service WlanSvc -StartupType AutomaticEnjoy!

Boyfriend's laptop could not see my new TPLink router, neither the 5Ghz or the 2.4Ghz via his laptop's built in wifi. He plugged this in on a Windows 10 machine, and within less than 3 minutes, it was installed and able to see the network. Doesn't take up much space. Installed easy. Connected to the network.
