In the office, a Fritz! Box 7390 is normal 300 Mbit WLAN in the 2.4 and 5 GHz band. In the nursery, I had the AVM FRITZ! WLAN USB Stick N 300 MBit in 2.4 or 5 GHz band. I never get connections to more than 54 Mbps reached, usually it was less. The reception was miserable no matter where I set up the stick. Accordingly, I came to barely usable 2.5 MB / s transfer rate when copying on my NAS. Backups and File Copies go on endlessly.
In the meantime I have a AVM 1750E IP Repeater in Bridge Mode hung to the Fritz! Box 7390 and the internal WLAN off. Covered ev. I get more signal in the nursery. But that was not the case with the AVM WLAN USB Stick on PC, otherwise but finally AC WiFi with good signal throughout the house, so good upgrade, but children still in the wireless dead zone.
Also dLAN brought up there no noticeable improvement. Have the first 200, then 500 and now yet tried the 1200s. Transfer rate just 4-5 MB / s. According dLAN Cockpit 100 MBit / s connection rate. Had already given up trying to somehow get the PC to the LAN reasonable until I decided today to order this USB wireless adapter and try. But the hope that it brings what was rather low after all the failed attempts in that confounded room (my smartphone bekammen there just so 1-2 bar WLAN signal strength -80dBi so exasperating. Internet at snail's pace).
Now today the Netgear A6210 unpacked. Latest driver downloaded from the website and installed. And stick plugged into the USB 3.0 port and opened antenna. In Netgear Genie the WLAN connection parameters (SSID and password) entered and connected to the Fritz! Repeater 1750E Access Point in the 5 GHz band by AC-Fi. And can not believe my eyes: Connected to CA, 585-702 Mbit / s swaying slightly, but 3-4 green bars and good reception. The 1750E shows connection rates to approximately 481 Mbit / s. Well I think at least 10 times more than the nearly 54 Mbit / s and less with the AVN WLAN stick.
So fast times on a NAS file copied: flutscht with 10-11 MB / s ie factor 4. Read with 15-16 MB / s ie a factor of 6 to the original 2.5 MB / s.
So for me, this attempt was worth, for nearly 43 I have now finally a wireless adapter, the reasonable transfer rates in wireless allows, even in this shadowed room. Although there is no GBit LAN and theoretically I would have more throughput when copying expected after the fantastic link rate, but now I have at least once 100 MBit Ethernet cable level and that's enough for backup and large file transfers on NAS good. The miserable wait when copying large files at last is now over.
Can the adapter only empfeheln. Installation 10 min. and works perfectly for what I was able to see so far. The best WLAN adapter, which I had so far and yes AC Wifi is really worth it. The range and throughput in the network class and the 5GHz band. All neighboring networks sparks at 2.4GHz. I agree but now smooth 5 Stars.
