Plug the Wireless-N USB Adapter from D-Link into your desktop or laptop and connect to the internet using Wireless-N signals. Wireless-N connections are faster and stronger than those of Wireless-G, with a typical throughput over seven times that of Wireless-G signals and a maximum net bitrate of 600Mbps. The adapter is backwards compatible, so it will continue to connect to wireless networks using Wireless-G signals. Bundled software helps you manage network settings when using your laptop on multiple wireless networks, and an Installation Wizard makes the initial setup easy.

Upgrade Your Adapter
Wireless-N signals are stronger and faster than Wireless-G. Upgrading your network to Wireless-N speeds up everyday activities like transferring files, browsing the Internet, and downloading music. The adapter makes use of your home's environment by bouncing multiple wireless signals off of walls and ceilings to work around obstructions and help eliminate dead spots.
Intelligent Antenna Technology
D-Link Wireless-N products use Intelligent Antenna technology to transmit multiple streams of data which enable you to receive wireless signals in the farthest corners of your home.
Backwards Compatible
The adapter is compatible with networks utilizing Wireless-G signals.
Easy Setup
The included Setup Wizard software walks you through the installation process and configures the adapter for you.
Wireless Connection Manager
Wireless Connection Manager software adds and saves settings for the networks you use most frequently.
For Both Laptops and Desktops
The adapter plugs right in to an available USB port on your laptop or desktop. An included desktop cradle lets you place the adapter on your desk for optimal performance.

          Comments about D-Link Wireless-N USB Adapter:

          I got a T-Mobile mobile hotspot, but it was not as fast as expected with my nettop. Unfortunately, the D-Link adapter did not help.

          Then I tried the adapter in my desktop with the hotspot and it was much faster than my ADSL connection. The USB extension has a very nice feature, the adapter-end is a stand so that the adapter is held at ca 20 deg from vertical. Conclusion: The adapter is as fast as it should be. Both my ADSL and my Intel Atom powered nettop are slower than expected.

          A small problem, when I removed the software from my nettop it removed the driver for the built-in G-WiFi.

          I might add that I have tried several brands of various network equipment, all brands, except D-Link have given trouble. I have a very old DI-701 D-Link router. Several times when newer equipment failed, I have pulled it out of the "moth-balls."

                  Adapter by D-Link. I use it almost everyday when I go to work. I am more confident in starting the day knowing that with the Wireless-N USB Adapter, I can be connected and online anytime I want. It's easy to install, needing only a few minutesand you're ready to go!

                  A friend bought one when he saw me using the Wireless-N USB Adapter.
