So I did not contact tech support. Maybe it would have helped, but there's too much that I feel is wrong.
1. The box says driver free. - But you are instructed to download a driver. ????
2. The box has a sticker on the back to contact support. This was something they had to have printed then stuck on the back of the product.
Now that tells me two things, 1) at least they are trying to fix a known issue. And 2) they have had design issues and something's not working.
I followed the instructions provided. Once I plugged it in to my PC, an icon popped up notifying me of a new drive. I tried to right-click but the wheel kept spinning, never doing anything. Freezing up file explorer and not allowing me to do anything else.
Unplugged, tried again, same thing. But now the icon was more fleshed out to an image. Progress?
I downloaded the driver for this driver-less device. Did the install, now I can't even get an icon.
Restarted the computer as directed. It froze up during restart, had to do it again.
Still didn't work. Left the USB plugged in, frustrated I thought I'd try it later.
A couple of hours later, success! It worked!
For less than...

It works perfect for what I'm using it for. I have a secondary computer that was fairly new and when I was switching out the Wi-Fi card to a better one, wire on one of them snapped (wire on board). The computer was a budget model and didn't feel like buying another one or paying a professional to fuse the wire back to the board. Purchased this.
it works perfect. Connects to Wi-Fi 6 and no more errors. Very easy to install, but I downloaded the install firmware from their website first. speed are good and everything loads quicker and snappy. For my needs, it's perfect. For the price, no complaints.

Car Guy: The 1st one I order refuse to hold a connection. I called customer service and they were quick to say return it for another one. The new has been working for a week. It has an annoying trait of turning off when not in use. Speed is fine, but not as good as it could be since the laptop has only usb 2.0 and not 3. Few of the new laptops I have looked at have usb 3.

Ana: Genial, se murió un hércules que tenía, y corriendo fui a comprar un adaptador, un tp-link ac600, que no captaba nada e iba muy mal, a los dos días compré este tenda y va de maravilla, además como tiene el pequeño prolongador mejor aun, no tengo ningún problema ni cortes de internet. Recomendado.

P. Moon: I didn't expect much since this adapter is so cheap and small. Guess big things do come in small packages. I can use my laptop any where in the house without problems. Installation was simple and took only seconds. It's wonderful to be able to use this laptop wirelessly. The adapter does not stick out so it's not getting bumped and caught on things. Thanks for such a great product and at great price!

Virginia MilarchukVirginia Milarchuk: If your wifi is not working on your device and you decide going this route is your next step, I highly recommend this device. It truly works. It is important to know, you still have to disable the build in wifi driver in your device. If not, it conflicts with the Tenga external driver and there will be problems using Tenga. Ever since I disabled the internal wifi driver, Tenga has worked as perfectly as it should.
