User questions & answers

Question:	windows 10 drivers laggy. Do I really need the realtek drivers or is the windows one just as fast
Answer:	Well i can tell you that this antenna does not need a driver from the manufacturer, Windows 10 provides a universal driver for it.
Question:	Does this come with link to download drivers? I have mac and can't use mini cd
Answer:	I had the same problem. They provided a link to download the drivers, which I did. I installed them on my MacBook Pro and attempted to restart as prompted. My trusty Mac refused to restart even in "safe mode". Tried rebooting in recovery mode and again, would not boot up. I ended up reinstalling my entire drive from a back up drive. Total time wasted=5 hours and I sent this back for a refund. Don't bother wasting your money if you have a Mac, it will only cause you grief.
Question:	im confused is this a device that will allow a non wifi laptop/desktop to have wifi? can i use it simply as a booster for my wifi enabled laptop
Answer:	To be technical this creates another network adapter for your computer/laptop. It can NOT be used as a booster for range with an existing wireless adapter. It might get better range than your current adapter. But it will not supplement it at all. Completely separate device from any other network adapter (wired or wireless).
Question:	Success installing drivers on Linux
Answer:	Hey guys, I'm able to have it working on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I did follow the dkms solution posted by the other user; the script ran into an error, that's when I noticed the shell script requires a manual edit to edit out the version number for the driver's directory, once that's done the shell script ran just fine. Also, I had this adapter plugged into a USB 2.0 port, and the wifi would not accept the password; once I plug it into a USB 3.0 port (duh, lol) the wifi accepted the password and working just fine.

User questions & answers

Question:	While it sees my 5ghz network, it refuses to connect to it. it only connects to the 2.4ghz one. why? i'm using the latest realtek drivers
Answer:	The short answer is that 2.4 GHz will generally register as having better signal strength compared to 5GHz. Windows tends to prefer this, and most consumer routers won't signal the endpoint to switch to 5GHz. You can fix this by going to the advanced adapter properties, and seeing if you can set it to "Prefer 5GHz". Alternatively, the WiFi Mode setting can be set to a set that excludes 2.4GHz like 802.11 a/c/n/ac.
Question:	What benefit for dual 5dbi wifi antenna,and what's the difference with one antenna wifi adapter
Answer:	If near router,it is nearly same as one antenna,but if your usb adapter is far router such as on upstairs/basement.it signal is also very good .so this is two wifi antenna benefit.
Question:	If I don’t already have a Wi-Fi card in my pc will this still work
Answer:	Yes. I work separately. As long as your PC has USB port.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with Windows
Answer:	I don't know but i got rid of the orbis and went to amplifi hd. The orbis automatically update firmware and were nothing but headaches. The amplifi hds work perfectly.
Question:	Is this a good option for the Raspberry Pi B+ model
Answer:	Yes this will work on dsl, however don’t expect good speeds as you are limited by the bandwidth of dsl. As for a modem you will have to ask you isp for a compatible list.
Question:	What is this for? Why would one need it if their laptop already does wifi
Answer:	Both systems are fine for a small office. I have the orbi pro and I installed one for our local Moose Organization. They work great. However, the Orbi wifi 6 utilizes WIFI 6 Technology which is 4x faster. I also believe the Orbi Wifi 6 system has a longer range of coverage for 5000 feet of coverage.
Question:	Does anyone know if this works with ubuntu
Answer:	We use this for our church and it consists of 3 detached buildings. The main building we use streaming, etc. So far so good. The only problem with such distance is if multiple users sign on may freeze.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can it be used for a home surveillance camera system
Answer:	I really don't know as of yet if this device does that or not. I run Linux (Debian 8.6, Linux Mint 18, 17.3, forget Ubuntu-I found too much spyware in that coupled with a wincrap laptop here somewhere) myself and just had not the time to mess with it on these features. It does work well on Linux under Ndiswrapper though I know I can do better with my own driver soon. Just had surgery on my eyes so give me a few weeks as they heal but you can contact me at Kstein_8551 at Yahoo.com. That is the public email address I use mostly. Another winmodem that does well with what you want is Netgear 6210 (1900-3.0usb) but you will have to download the chip source and make the driver for it. Not the netgear one. I just searched Duckduckgo for the chipset ID from lsusb command to get the chipset code. Leave a message if need some help, or wait a few weeks and I should have a nice Linux driver soon.K SteinmanP.S If your going to try under Ndiswrapper make sure you disable bcm43xx, bcm43, and ssd in etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf as they will interfere with that modem pretty bad.Like I said I haven't really put this thing through it's paces yet but is very fast and reliable and I pick up neighbors wifi over a mile away. I like it...it's a monster..
Question:	What is the latency like using this product
Answer:	Standard usb cable, which I think is included.
Question:	my adapter disconnects and re connects over and over again. Do I have a defective adapter
Answer:	It comes with a 42" cable that has a USB A male connector on one end to plug into the computer. A USB 3.0 Micro B male connector is on the other end to connect to the TRENDnet device.
Question:	How do you install the driver for this on Linux Mint/Ubuntu
Answer:	It's a switch, so it will work for any Ethernet compatible device, including an Xbox, PlayStation, smart Blu Ray player, etc.

Question:	I've been told that usb wifi adapters work in linux, but they don't. How do I know this one will
Answer:	. I recently got this adapter... It works perfectly with Ubuntu & Mint, ( both Debian based ), as well as Fedora, ( which is Red Hat's desktop fork of Linux ). . One thing to note is you need to extract the driver and build/install it, ( using the make commands ), in order to use it. For people unfamiliar with how to do this, or who may be unsure that they are technically capable, the adapter has very good documentation on the folder on the included disc, ( you can also find the driver and documents on Cudy's website for those who would like to view it before purchasing ). I whole-heartedly recommend this adapter, even for people new to Linux. 🙂 So far I've used mine on a MacBook as well as a Dell Optiplex w/o issue.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it Include Bluetooth
Answer:	The T6E is just wifi, but the Archer TX50E has Bluetooth 5.0 and wifi.
Question:	The driver software downloaded, but it does not detect adapter. green light is on. why not
Answer:	Not enough information. What OS are you running? Specifically, how do you know it doesn't detect adapter? Do you have another wireless adapter installed and enabled, perhaps a (built-in) adapter on the motherboard? If so, you must disable that adapter first before installing the TP-LINK Archer's driver.
Question:	How to install the drivers for windows 10 , i just bought this for my brand new com(windows
Answer:	I also use Windows 10, I just used the accompanying disk and I was good to go.
Question:	Does this support Miracast
Answer:	Going back to my previous comment, the TP Link WDN4800 did support Miracast. It’s a smaller card, but it’s what I’m running now.

User questions & answers

Question:	It says hardware interface usb, usb 2.0. is it also compatible with usb
Answer:	this is backward compatible with 802.11g routers.
Question:	Mine failed after 6 weeks. For how long have you had it
Answer:	No, you would need either a bluetooth dongle/card to perform this function. This card enables your computer to connect to a wireless network.
Question:	Would this speed up an old dell desktop with slow built in wifi
Answer:	yes,pci e x1
Question:	Will this work on a Chromebook? Built-in Chromebook wireless is awful
Answer:	Here is a possible solution from the reviews of the next level up card:This review is from: TP-Link AC1900 Wireless Dual Band PCI-Express Adapter with Beamforming Technology (Archer T9E) (Personal Computers) I love the card, no issues and works great on Windows 10. This gave me a tremendous network and internet download speed increase over the internal Broadcom wireless chip on my HP Envy (mfg date Jun'15). My only complaint is that the documentation was insufficient in how to install the drivers, the key solution as follows:1. Install card (the easy part!)2. Download Windows 10 driver from TP-link site (under Support, Archer T9E, Windows 10 driver) -- this is a zipped file and unpacks to a SETUP application file. You run it and it says the driver is installed --- but really nothing happens, DM says there is no driver... Why? Because you MUST DISABLE the existing Network Interface Device first! Once you do this (then reboot) the Setup runs perfectly and all is well. Root Cause: What happens on Windows 10 system is that the new NIC is created as a Network Controller device, not under NETWORK ADAPTER as is should be (note, it didn't do this on my Windows 7 system). Once the existing adapter was disabled, Windows 10 created the new NIC card under Network Adapter and the Setup utility from TP-Link Driver download ran correctly... it took me over an hour to realize this issue, documentation was bare-bones 1-page sheet and didn't say anything about this. More accurate and precise documentation would have avoided this issue and saved me time/frustration. So I knocked off one star for this.
