TP-Link Wireless N150 USB Adapter,150Mbps, w/WPS Button, IEEE 802.1b/g/n, WEP, WPA/WPA2 (TL-WN727N)

Tried this out with Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit and aircrack-ng. The one I received is version 4.1 and has the Atheros AR9485 chipset according to airmon-ng. Tried out monitor mode. Works great. Tried out airodump-ng. Works great. Tried out packet injection with aireplay-ng --test. Works great. Haven't tried any real penetration testing but, at first glance, it seems to work for what I need and I'm able to do packet captures on 2.4GHz traffic on linksys wifi routers.

The TP-Link was easy to install, just plug it into a USB port. I am on the second floor the router is on ground level have at least 3 walls of lath and plaster between the router and the computer but the signal is 3 bars and the connection is fine.

Just download its driver to the Hard drive and plug it to the USB port, then it works great. It can get an excellent signal from the wireless router at a distance of about 50ft with several walls obstruction if the device is extended to the high of about 5ft with a 5ft long of USB wire.

This thing gets decent, but not great reception. I have three of the older TP-LINK b/g adapters and they have always worked great. Maybe its just me, but for me they get better reception.

This device ONLY works with MAC and NOT Androids ... therefore I'll return it

I bought this to replace an existing unit that would drop the internet (and lately not come back). This item does the same thing. So, I'm thinking i can't totally blame the product. though, i have to admit, the setup was really easy and luckily intuitive since the instructions weren't that great. So far, its been a couple of weeks, it works most of the time.

This works just fine. The only issue I had was that Zonealarm block the initial install. I had to unistall ZA then install the TP-Link drivers. After that I could reinstall ZA and I found no issues.

Easy to install I use it as a back up to my laptop WIFI and others.
