Ac Router Wireless Usb Adapter

We have a n router, not an AC standard router, but, compared to the adapter built into our relatively new laptop, the wireless download speed increased from about 20 Mbps to 36. Our hard wired service from Comcast into the router is about 85-90 Mbps so there is speed loss in wireless, but it's much less with this adapter than the one that is built into our Dell laptop. Plus, if we ever buy a new router, (and possible upgrade our Comcast internet service), we may be able to take advantage of the higher AC band speed.

The typical home wireless router puts everything in one box - the router, software, and wireless access points. UniFi breaks it apart into plug and play modules that you can place anywhere independently. This gives way more configuration options which is all straight forward with the UniFi software. For those a little more knowledgeable on networking this is an awesome setup to have. Originally I plugged the UAP-AC-LITE into a EdgeRouterX but after power issues I upgraded to the Security Gateway which is a much better experience. Installed the UniFi software on my Macbook Air, it found and provisioned both, and I was up and running. Once it was configured I now only run the UniFi software when there's a need to check the system. This is enterprise grade with well considered management options and monitoring through an intuitive interface (four WiFi networks, customizable guest web page, deep packet inspection...) Great performance thus far, and with the UAP-AC-LITE using PoE I can have it on UPS while placing it anywhere there is an Ethernet port, like tucked behind the TV :-) Now looking to invest in a Cloud key (an independent little box to run the UniFi software) and a UniFi switch (to give more PoE). I'm hooked...

Upgraded from 802.11ac router and wireless network was dramatically improved - both speed and reliability. Gigabit FiOS was previously bottle necked by old router but now getting much closer to advertised numbers. No longer having issues with mult computers accessing VPNs and/or simultaneous Zoom calls. Set-up took a few tries but now very reliable. Very happy with upgrade.

I use these cables to connect my pc with the new wireless AC router and modem. They look solidly built, are thicker than your average Ethernet cables and are somewhat stiffer (perhaps due to the double protection layer). Simply wanted the best cables and I think these are it. Cannot say anything on the speed benchmarks, but I think when we get Google fiber the throughput may come in handy.

Great router for the price. Saw an instant increase of wireless throughput from my previous AC router.

The AC adapter for my Shure wireless microphone quit working and this adapter replaced it without issue.

AC adapter works very well!

It is an AC adapter... I can only say it works...

When there is no 110V AC outlet and you need 5 volts power for a USB powered device (like a wireless camera), this solves the problem. I have used these for a few years 24/7/365 and they are reliable, so I recently bought a few more.

I have the Zoom H6 and wanted to be able to use it as a standalone recorder for podcasting. I didn't want to waste the batteries so I bought this AD-17 AC adapter. I've know used it for a podcast and it works wonderfully. It doesn't come with a USB cord to attach it to the H6, but the H6 already came with one so it wasn't needed. I don't know about the other recorders but if they come with a USB cord (to go into the computer) you can use it for this adapter. I did record to a computer at the same time but I used the line out function so it has an male stereo audio into my griffin imic for my Mac computer. So all that is separate. If you needed an extra USB cable then you'd have to buy it. That would be the only drawback of this adapter. For example if you weren't loading the SD card from the recorder into your computer using a card reader of some sort and wanted to use the recorder for that, then you might need an extra cable or you'd have to use batteries. Fortunately those cords aren't expensive. The only other negative I can think of is that the direction the prongs of the plug face means that the AC adapter may cover up some additional plugs on a power strip. It's best if it's plugged in at the right facing end.
