Great connection
Simple to install on Windows. Use the CD. Great performance so far and just works away in the background. Nice and compact so doesn’t get in the way.

Quick and easy to connect a device to wi-fi
Easy to use, comes with step by step instructions. Perfect for older devices that can't connect to newer routers.
Leanne, 45 - 54, Southern England
Much better than expected.
I've had this for a couple of weeks and totally forget that I'm not connected via an ethernet cable. It took about half an hour to set up and a very long USB cable. There is the occasional blip in signal and the sound drops out but it's barely noticeable.

Faulty wi-fi on an old laptop. Bought this, plugged it into the USB socket and it worked immediately.

Does what it’s meant to do
It works. That’s all there is to say

Works well
I purchased this wifi adapter as a previous aerial adapter died after 6 months use. I put the software that comes with it onto the PC Win11 and it worked straight away. However, you do not need to put the software on the PC for it to work. The speed seems fine plugged into a USB 3 port, we'll have to wait and see as to the longevity of the adapter.

Hello there,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the TP-Link Archer T3U AC1300 Wireless USB Adapter/Dongle for PC: When you plug the Archer T3U into your PC, it does not automatically connect to your Wi-Fi network. You will need to manually connect your PC to your Wi-Fi network using the following steps:
1. Access Wi-Fi Settings: Go to your computer's Wi-Fi settings. This can usually be found in the system tray or in your network settings menu.
2. Scan for Networks: Your PC will display a list of available Wi-Fi networks. Select your Wi-Fi network from the list.
3. Enter Password: If your Wi-Fi network is password-protected, enter the correct password to connect successfully.
Once connected, your Archer T3U adapter will help your PC achieve faster speeds, provided your router and network support those speeds.
Thank you for using Q&A.

Hi,
Archer T3U supports Mac OS 10.9~10.13. We regret to inform you that our product is unable to provide support for Mac OS drivers from version 10.15 onwards. This is due to a limitation of the Mac OS system, which prevents our product from being able to fully interact with the Mac OS operating system in these versions.
Thanks for using Q&A.
