I wish I can return it. If you looking for getting better reception signal,not this one. It work same as my wi-fi card that come with my asuss eee 900ha.
I already had an adapter which was compatible with backtrack i bought this cause i thought it will improve the range , I even bought a 16dbi antennasame thing it didnt improve range soo much
you now have a directional more powerful antenna. you aim it in the direction you need. GOODNIGHT AND GOOD LUCK. It works pretty good. Here is a little tip for even more reception, find a nice stainless steel bowl about the size of a dinner plate and a little piece of duct tape and one usb cable now tape the cable to the bowl so the antenna will hang right in the middle when you set it upright.
I bought this adapter after reading reviewsthe area desktop doesn't get good receptionwith other adapter, I only get 2-3 bars, and the rate is so-so (12-24Mbps)but this one made some real differenceeven with stock antenna, I get 3 bars, but the rate is 36-54Mbps.with 6dBi external antenna, I even get 3-4 bars, and it stays 48-54Mbpsbut there's a drawback: it takes long to search my AP (SSID hidden with WPA2 setup), it can take up to 5 minutes to get signaldespite this minor flaw, the fully-customizable antenna gives a potential for better receptionedit: you can enable AP function (real AP mode), search ralink RT2571 driver from ralinktech site
Her laptop can also pick up the networks of 4 of our neighbors. My wife's laptop will connect to our network 300 yards away from our home. This adapter wouldn't pick up a signal 25' away from the router. I am very disappointed in this adapter. I have a very strong wireless signal in my home.
