I suppose the actual thing might be fine, but I really don't know as the platform support is very poor. Doesn't support anything above windows 8.1, or Linux or Mac. Official driver support for Win 8.1 is also missing, but it works on 8/8.1 using Win 7 drivers. NOT SO with Windows 10 variants. Regret this purchase every time I look at the adapter, which is everytime I open up the box it's been lying in since I bought it, gathering dust. One of my worst purchase decisions ever. Get a Belkin or something with better support. The cheap D-link ones that cost around INR 700 actually work on Linux out of the box, I've found. Should've brought that.
