        Good map

        This Wi-Fi card is perfect for someone who wants to upgrade an old PC without Wi-Fi while being far from the Wi-Fi box.

        No problems with installation, very easy to fit - the product worked straight away.
        Impeccable value for money. Nothing to say!

        Absolutely useless

        The card does not do its job. Doesn't stay connected to the wifi for more than 5 minutes, ridiculous speeds... very disappointed. To be banned.

        A (very) good WIFI card for small budgets...

        Recognised instantly under W10, the connection was immediate. Very good performance and, for the moment, no loss of connection.
        A very good product.

        walking on old equipment

        So the configuration: AMD64X2 5600 with 8GB DDR2 (yes DDR TWO). Runs under Linux. In 2023, this super gamer computer (it runs Doom from 1993) can connect via wifi, surf the net and all that.
        All it needs is a PCI express port.
        In operation for 18 months.

        Missing antennas

        I would have liked to indicate that this product works correctly, however I did not receive the antennas when my assembled PC was delivered.
        The only solution indicated by the after-sales service is to buy a new Wi-Fi card.
        Thank you, but it probably won't be with you.

        Attention Ubuntu users

        Installation on a PC running Ubuntu 18.04: It works without a hitch, the card is recognised straight away, and the signal is quite good, even though the back of the PC is turned towards a wall. But after rebooting, it is impossible to get to the home screen. The system is stuck on a page reporting a hardware error on the PCIe bus. Believing that perhaps an update would solve the problem, I put the PC under Ubuntu 20.04: Same blockage, which persists even after removing the card from its slot!
        A visit to the Ubuntu forum shows me that I am not the only one to have this problem, which is due to a defect in the exchange of information between the bus manager and the card. It is necessary to modify GRUB (the launcher) for everything to work. As I am far from being a Linux expert, I have not yet done the operation and put the card back in place. So, average score: The card works well, but has problems under some Linux installations

        Wrong wifi card

        The speed is only 10 meg and the connection is regularly lost, whereas when I share the connection with my laptop I get 50 meg and a stable connection.

        The presence of the small extra bracket allowed me to easily fix it in a desktop PC. Directly recognized under W10 and Linuxmint.

        The connection is good and stable.

        Can't get my 5GHz wi-fi

        It works
        I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the card as a standalone device, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the card as a standalone device, so I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the card as a standalone device.
        I've looked at multiple tutorials telling me to go to the card properties, then to the "advanced" section and modify it by myself except I can't even do that. I can't find the property to modify.

        I'm sorry if I'm not clear but I don't know anything about it and I'm trying to express myself with what I've seen on the videos and other articles

        As usual under Linux, the TP-LINK is immediately recognized and works perfectly. As usual with Windows, the supplied installation disk is essential, but the installation is done well.
        Good value for money.

        This card does the job

        Nothing to reproach to this card for the moment. Installed on a Linux PC, I just had to add a kernel module to avoid a warning message at boot time (even if the card worked without this module; I don't know what this module brings in addition; debian distribution, Z270-HD3P motherboard)

        Fairly good

        I don't know if the problem is mine or my box's, but there are times when it cuts off slightly. Otherwise the network is excellent, with the fibre I have 4ms (ping), 95 Mbit/s download and 90 Mbit/s upload. The box helps a lot, but the card ensures that the signal is restored!

        Do the job

        I bought this network card for my girlfriend's computer.
        I received it on time, the installation is easy and now my girlfriend has a stable network, without any interruption on her PC which is however one floor below the internet box.
        So no reason to complain.
        After that, it remains to be seen how long it will last, but considering the brand, I'm not too worried!

        does the job

        This wifi card does the job, has a correct flow. Too bad the driver is not configured and located by W10 directly (do not lose the CD provided, because without internet, no driver)
        I'm not sure if it's from the card.

        does its job but pilots not functional at first attempt

        The product works correctly after having struggled to install the drivers.
        The ones on the CD didn't work, so I had to download them. And they didn't work the first time either, but only on the second attempt for no particular reason ...
        I have to say that I'm not very happy with this product as it is supposed to give access to the internet and I think it's important that the installation goes smoothly without a connection.
        Otherwise LDLC service always very good.

        Hello. This product works very well. It allows you to receive WIFI even through load-bearing walls. The physical installation is easy. For the drivers, the CD is provided but if you don't have a CD drive, plan to download the drivers for VERSION 2 from the site.

        Good recognition on Linux, but sometimes very slow

        Use on Linux Ubuntu. Recognized by default and easy to install. However, sometimes the throughput becomes very slow and returns to normal after a few minutes; I have not yet found out where this is coming from...

        Very good

        Cheap. This card is devilishly efficient. No problem to get a fast connection on Windows. However, the picture is different. It's the same card but without the square box to cover the chip on the card. As the antennas are universal, I was able to change them with the one from an old D-Link router to have them in white because my whole PC is white.

        Installed the card with the supplied drivers, quickly and efficiently under Windows 10 pro. The connection was immediate on my personal network. I haven't done a speed test yet, as I'm still within range of an RJ45.

        I bought this card to replace my TL-WN851ND (not compatible with windows10), I never had any problem with this brand that I recommend, the drivers are delivered with and easily found on the internet (for those who do not have a cd player) very good value for money.

        Impec

        The PC is located one wall away from the wi-fi router, the signal is very good and has never dropped out yet, on online gaming, surfing or youtube.
        I haven't tested it on Linux (other reviews say it's ok), but on Win10/64 it works perfectly, in doubt I installed the driver from the supplied cd anyway: I didn't have wired access to go and get it on the net.

        Hello,

        Economical product with passive cooling.
        Compatible with Linux and perfect for use as a multimedia PC.

        I tried it under Linux Mint 64 18.4. The GÎT driver installation improves the rendering.

        Smooth running

        I have been using this product for almost 2 months now. No disconnection/lag found. I don't have fibre at home so I don't see any difference between wired and wifi via this card. Once the proprietary driver is installed, the wifi works perfectly on a Windows 10 configuration.

        Attention no longer integrates drivers for XP

        After confirmation from TP LINK, the chipset manufacturer does not offer any pilots below win7.
        Don't be fooled. Even if after 30mn spent with the LDLC SAV the opposite was announced to me.
        Otherwise under LINUX MINT 18 it does the job.

        Good product, Mini ITX compatible

        Works very well under Windows 10 as well as Linux.
        I was able to mount it easily in my Mini ITX case after changing the metal bracket (which was also delivered with the card). Perfect then!

        Good wifi card and compatible with Windows 10 thanks to the supplied driver cd. It picks up even the most remote wifis.
        It is also very easy to install and there is a low profile attachment included. So it deserves the 5 stars.

        Perfect wifi card

        7th computer I've set up for friends/family and I still use this wifi card. I've had mine since 2013 and it always does its job and never lets me down.
        For the price and reliability, I recommend!
