AC1200 Long Range USB WiFi Adapter (Model # AC3)

The BrosTrend USB WiFi Dongle 1200Mbps has been a great upgrade for my setup. It was extremely easy to install, and the connection has been fast and reliable from the moment I plugged it in. The long-range performance is impressive, I’m getting a strong, stable signal even from across the house. Streaming, browsing, and downloads all feel noticeably smoother. For the price, convenience, and performance, this USB WiFi adapter is a fantastic value. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Wi-Fi adapter with strong, stable signal and great range. The dual antennas make a real difference, keeping the connection steady even far from the router. Setup was quick, and the included USB cradle is a nice touch for flexible placement. Excellent performance for streaming and gaming.

Works very well. Don't forget to install the drivers!

I have Dell Inspiron and the internal Wifi was problematic (Dell replaced Wifi card and updated drivers), Wifi would completely disappear when transferring data. I decided to try the Bros Trend AC3 USB Wifi Antenna system . Installation was straight forward, just remember to disable the existing Wifi adapter first ! Bros Trend supplied a disk containing the installer and drivers. After install a reboot and hey presto the new device was up and running and attempting a connection to my 5G network. After entering my network login information and I was up and running. A check on signal strengths and a tweak of the Ariel position/rotation to optimise the signal and I was getting 100% signal strength and +90% quality. This boosted my downloads to about 140Mbps, almost double that of the internal Wifi adaptor. The system has been running for over 2 weeks now. Wifi is firm it does not stop or disappear, even under stress with simultaneous data uploads and downloads. The only slight niggle I have is with the Realtek WLAN Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter program. This is the front end program that allows you to change settings and monitor signal strengths and data. It is a little temperamental on starting up the laptop, but it does not affect the operation of the Wifi. I dont really need it and so have deleted the program - this does not affect the operation of the Bros Trend Wifi device. If I do need to run it then it is easily installable again, without affecting the Bros Trend device. So overall I'm very satisfied with this device. 9.9/10

This does a great job and deffinately solved my wifi problem. But and sadly there is one a but, it only worked for 5 months. For the price didn't bother returning it but bought another which works just as well but hopefully will last longer. Were it not for the limited life, which hopefully is not common, it would have got 5 stars

brilliant, arrived on time, easy set up and works unbelievably well, I mean, it is so easy to set up, the wifi upstairs pc, went form 100mbs to 200 mbs, well worth the money.

I Purchased this Bostrend device based on it's claims AND Crucially influenced by the number of Purchases against it. I just wanted an average Wi-Fi Antenna nothing particularly demanding. I thought it looked ideal. It was Ideal - for the nearest Return Opportunity Why? 1) Shocking, Cheap Nasty Plastic Base that you could not fit correctly the USB Male part of the system with the Antennas on correctly. I couldn't believe at first but when googled it was a Common Issue. i so wish i had done more research it "waggled" and kept dropping signal. Even when it was working it was a Drayhorse going uphill! - Dreadful device cheap, nasty plastic construction. 2) The USB lead from the base was so ridiculously short less than a metre, there was no way to try to optimise it for Signal. i had to fit a USB3 extension lead. 3) It came with an Install that was quite old, over a year and didn't have the current driver. Went to site to download at it seemed like you had to pay for it. That is not in Principal and i will never do that - it should come with the product every time. No excuses. when you buy something you should get the up to date version. I did try the tplink - that wanted to take over from my EE/BT Router with a hard wire connection, i just didn't get it. ? i am IT Savvy I just didn't get what it was all about it was like a communist take over. You are leaving yourself wide open on your contract with ee who happen to have the best network out there. Get a problem your support goes out of the window when you hard wire something like that up to it. I did settle for the Wavlink Adapter which in every respect was streets ahead of the Bostrend, a quality piece of kit on the 5m network it is regularly recording 850mbps i have had just under a 1000mbps. had it a few weeks and it has never dropped or been an issue and you did get the latest version for the extra £10 no brainer. Those figures were recorded on my EE/BT Openreach Fast Fibre Network, no a fishing tale hope this helps someone if only one person.
