Adjust Wifi Speed On Asus Laptop Windows 8.1

Got it very recently for my Windows 8.1 laptop and have only been using it for a few days. Overall my experience has been pretty good. The port on the IR sensor is a mini USB B and there is a slight overhang with the supplied cable since I connect the sensor to a USB on the same side as my laptop. The driver that it came with cannot calibrate this pen at all; I just used the built-in calibration tool. You need to reset the calibration if you want to re-calibrate. The pen is plug-and-play, but you may need to reload any existing browsers to get it working right. I prefer a pretty high resolution, so using the trackpad or trackpoint to move the pointer can be pretty time consuming compared to tapping with the pen. It's also very useful if you don't have enough room to properly use a mouse. Swiping left/right to go back/forward in a web browser is also pretty useful.

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.

I use windows 8.1 quite often. On this mac, all drives (except the internal flash drive) are external. Windows runs great off Thunderbolt connected drives. You can have multiple window drives and select the one you want on boot by holding down the option key.

Using an Asus ux501vw laptop, Windows 10, latest drivers and firmware. Works great! Write speed (Raid 0) 350MB/sec. Moved 1TB without any problems.

Works great connecting my TB2 Raid to my Windows Asus ProArt Studiobook Laptop. Allows me to get continued use of my expensive Raid 2 storage array well into the future maximizing return on my investment. Highly recommended !!

Was having trouble with google nest after upgrading to gigabit speed Wifi. The ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 has been flawless, very stable no constant restarts and resets to factory settings. The speed is as stated and far better than I expected. Wireless coverage is better, ASUS 2 pack covers the whole house and backyard and replaced Google 3 pack.

The Asus Zen WiFi Pro ET12 offers the best range and speed you can find on the market these days. I have 2gbps service from my ISP and with a WiFi connection to my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra I get speeds of 1200-1500mbps when I am close to one of the devices. Wired speeds over ethernet I get 2400-2500. I like that it has two 2.5gbps ports so I can connect 1 to my desktop and use the other as a wired backhaul connection to the other unit. The range is also phenomenal. I get strong service throughout my 2600 square foot home but also on the back deck, to outside cameras, in the back yard, and I even got a good signal across the cul-de-sac in my neighbor's driveway! The number of walls and the type of material they are made (brick, etc.) of do impact the performance but the ET12 powers through better than any other router or mesh system I have used. With the original firmware they had 2 separate SSIDs: one for 6ghz and the other for 5 and 2.4ghz. I was happy that with a firmware update they combined everything into a single SSID (although you can still split them in the settings if you prefer) and it chooses the best connection type. One side-note, if you, like me, are venturing into multi-gig speeds for the first time, be aware that a lot of hardware has a 1gbps speed limit. For me I needed a new fiber gateway from my ISP, all CAT 6 network cables (not CAT 5E or 5), a Zyxel 8-port 2.5gbps switch, and an Asus 10gbps network card for my desktop computer. The ethernet cable that comes with the ET12 is unfortunately CAT 5E which tops out at 1gbps.

This is an internal drive, plain and simple. Starts up fast, extra thin (half the thickness of a normal 3.5 drive), runs cool (thinness allows for more heat dissapation). But... I had bought this to put in an external USB 3.0 enclosure to use with my Dell XPS 8700 which has Windows 8.1. Unfortunately, after hooking it up, it would perpetually disconnect itself during file transfers, especially with files upwards of 1gb. Thinking the drive was defective, I took the internal drive of my Dell, which was the same brand, model and capacity, and put that into the enclosure. Same disconnects occurred. Then I replaced the cable between the drive and computer with a USB 2.0 cable, and the disconnects stopped, although file transfers took 10x longer. This proved that the drives were fine, but they did not work in a USB 3.0 enclosure. I could live with that, until... After a week or so, my computer developed the same symptoms (constant disconnects) for other USB storage devices. Since it was USB 3.0, I blamed the USB 3.0 drivers which Windows 8.1 seems to have implemented so poorly. BUT THEN I STARTED GETTING READ ERRORS ON MY SYTEM DRIVE. I could not back up files without drives disconnecting every few seconds. In short, THIS HAD SCREWED UP MY OPERATING SYSTEM. After a complete reinstall of Windows, everything was back to normal and all my drives (except the Barracuda in external enclosure) could read and write properly. The next day I bought a WD Black and put that in the enclosure... BOOM ... 100gb of files transferred seamlessly. So, to summarize... DO NOT PUT THIS DRIVE IN A USB 3.0 ENCLOSURE OR IT WILL WRECK THE WINDOWS 8.1 OPERATING SYSTEM. 1 month of my life wasted, I can't return the drive since it isn't actually defective, thought I'd at least write about my experience.

Replaced a builtin laptop WIFI card and brought up speed to maximum.

I've been able to connect four Windows PCs (XP, 7, 8.1, 10) to an Epson all-in-one printer. Although my printer is wireless capable, I find USB connectivity more reliable and less frustrating. The packaged software (CD), as well as the included Installation Guide, are antiquated (Windows XP/Vista; Mac OS X) but were still useful for one of my connected PCs. Accessing the product manufacturer's website is required to obtain an up-to-date User Manual and to install applicable drivers for PCs with newer operating systems. This applies to Windows (7, 8.1, 10) and Mac (10.6 and above) with an available USB Type-A port. One 6-foot USB A-B cable is also included. Each of my PCs printed successfully to the one printer as intended.
