What It Is

The SANOXY 600Mbps Dual Band USB Wi-Fi Adapter connects a desktop or laptop to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks through a USB 2.0 port. A 5 dBi antenna is included for extended range. Maximum link rates reach 150 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 433 Mbps on 5 GHz. It supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n and a/n/ac standards with WPA, WPA2 and WPS security.

Who It Suits

This adapter suits owners of older Windows, macOS or Linux machines that lack built-in dual-band wireless. The USB 2.0 interface works with USB 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 ports, so legacy systems can add 5 GHz connectivity. Buyers whose devices do not transmit on the 5 GHz band will not gain that capability from this adapter.

Deciding Specification

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 2.0 interface combined with 5 GHz 433 Mbps and 2.4 GHz 150 Mbps link rates. If the host computer only offers USB 1.1 ports, throughput will be limited to the bus maximum. If the host cannot send 5 GHz signals, the higher speed band remains unavailable.

Questions about this item

Will this adapter work on a desktop that only has USB 1.1 ports?

Yes, the adapter supports USB 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 interfaces, so it will function on older USB ports, though throughput will be limited by the port speed.

How can I confirm the adapter is using the 5 GHz band and reaching 433 Mbps link speed?

Check the wireless connection status in your OS; it should show a 5 GHz connection with a link rate of 433 Mbps when associated with a compatible 5 GHz access point.

Does the package include a driver disc or must I download drivers for Windows 10?

The adapter works with Windows 10 in-box drivers; no separate disc or download is required for the listed operating systems.
