Bottom line The USB-N66 did not further endear me to USB wireless adapters. As is usually the case in my experience, it's just not as robust a performer as using a 3x3 on-board adapter. However, if you don't have a laptop with an 802.11n adapter, it's not a bad cho...

As the router is a few years old, it also only supports up to 802.11n, rather than the newer 802.11ac, which allows for much faster throughput speeds. This router is limited to only up to 450Mbit/s according to Asus. This might only be a limitation if you...
