## Description

Review: 6 months so far - I've had this item for 6 months now and couldn't be happier. It was so easy to set up, even I could do it. My desktop that I have this connected to is 3 rooms away from the router and I have no problems. Speed is fine so is connectivity. I don't recall getting my signal dropped at any time since I've had it. I was going spend much more money on a different model and am soooo glad I didn't as this one works perfectly fine.
Review: Great Product - This thing works perfect for my all my wireless needs. I use ubuntu and this works great. Also works with aircrack-ng.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Hardware, Productization a bit Weak
*by A***K on February 15, 2010*

Traveling through parts of Asia with a thirst for uploading photos and catching up on family news, I found most Wifi weak and barely functional, but since the general populace doesn't use Wifi, it's difficult for them to support. In the middle of Paris and London, I find outsourced Wifi services to be broken without the provider knowing, weak signal, the bare minimum to be able to advertise "you can pay extra for wifi when you stay at our hotel". A device like this is crucial to help get the most of your 22 Euros per day in Paris, or snipe that weak signal in Udon Thani and Koh Samui. This is a Chinese product sold into the US, so it has functioning hardware but the productization is weak. For example, it is MacOSX compatible, but the driver disk doesn't work in a Mac slot-loader, so it's not actually been used on a Mac. The custom RALinkTech app to manage APs rather than using standard OS tools is a bit cheesy (the OS has a perfectly good way to choose which AP to use) The consistency of the MacOSX means that the 10.5 driver works in 10.6, and the upstream innovator has drivers available. I downloaded drivers from [...], installed v10.5 on OS-10.6.2, and it works fine. The device demands 450mA from USB, and uses a standard USB-mini cable for data and power: standard cable means less a lighter bag for those of us who travel. Antenna unscrews. Using Sharing, the AWUS050NH connection is shared through my existing Wifi to my mobile devices, to the other laptop with the poor-quality Wifi, and to my travel partners' devices poolside and in neighbouring rooms. Based on the short time I've used this, it works well once the working driver is found, fits easily into my bag, and gives me connectivity where it's otherwise poor-quality. My only issue is the extra effort to find the right drivers.
