(More customer reviews)Synopsis of Brief Ownership:
* Package arrived on time and well packed by DBRoth.
* Supplied CD did not install the 8187 Realtek driver. Had to plug in the adapter and let Win XP find it to install the driver. Procedure had to be used on 2 different computers.
* This is a B/G unit only and does not incorporate N like Alfa's B/G/N unit. I've been informed that particular unit (-nt5) does not perform as well. Perhaps having to deal with 3 different protocols, something was given up. Also, the -nt5 model is really not a 2000mw device since 1000mw is the FCC legal limit. The -nt5 model allows momentary bursts of energy, but not for continuous connection. I'll leave that to the RF or Realtek experts to comment on.
* Placed unit both inside and outside of both first and second story windows. The unit easily doubled to tripled the available APs.
* Marginal signals, 1 to 2 bars, jumped to the max of 5 bars.
* The great signal quality may be attributable to no antenna cable attenuation loss since both the adapter and antenna are internally embedded along with power supplied by dual USB connections.
* For outdoor use, the user will have to seal against the elements better than the Alfa design. While adequate, the USB connection is susceptible to the effects of the elements. In a marine environment, I recommend sealing the interior USB connection with liquid electrical tape or a corrosion inhibitor and sealing the access panel with silicone or sail tape to prevent water intrusion.
* Caveat: The user must keep in mind that while this unit dramatically improves the ability to reach out and touch, it is also important to know that the other end must be able to handshake as well which impacts ability to retain a solid connection.
So far, so good.
