A little pricey for inconsistency

Moved the desktop into a room away from the router, so I got this one based on various reviews online. I have no baseline to compare it to as far as desktops or usb wifi adaptors, but the speed I got was slower than my laptop or my smartphone and other tablets (testing through speedtest). I tested a few times (at different times of day) and got really inconsistent speeds via this adaptor. Of course, the desktop has a bunch of stuff running so there are those variables. I ended up running a powerline adaptor into the room and got more consistent speeds, but roughly the same max speed. It may work for you; it may not. I feel I should have tried a cheaper adaptor first just to test.
