Netgear Nighthawk AXE3000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 6E USB-A Adapter - Black (A8000) is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 35.
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Upgrade But Not Really an Upgrade I bought the A8000 to replace my A7000. I deleted the driver for my A7000 and downloaded the driver for the A8000. I ran several speed tests and found the A8000 to be slower than my A7000. I re-boxed the A8000 and it is decorating my shelf while I have reverted to the use of my A7000. Not sure why the upgraded unit is slower, but the speed test numbers speak for themselves. (My A7000 has a much larger antenna than the A8000, which may have something to do with the slower speed of the latter?)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 2 Happy Netgear cutomers for the price of 1 Blazing speeds, wow! I got it for my son (he's a gamer). I had a selfish reason for that. I wanted his AC1200 WIFI USB ADAPTER for my old dell laptop. I couldn't find one anywhere local and so I turned off my internal wifi and just plugged it into my USB 3.0 slot and I do not worry about losing my internet connection and It works equally fast for me also. Hooray and Thank You NETGEAR.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Nighthawk AXE3000 WiFi 6E USB 3.0 Adapter (A8000) receives a strong signal and works great

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great adapter, works on linux too (read review for how) This adapter will be 100% supported on of the box starting with linux kernel 6.4 I believe. However if you have a fairly recent 6.x kernel it will work as long as you execute the 2 following commands after each reboot: 1) modprobe mt7921u 2) echo 0846 9060 > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/mt7921u/new_id It works great for me on both my fedora distribution PC and my raspberry 4. Best wifi adapter I ever used. very fast and strong signal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Review of WiFi Adapter An awesome piece of equipment...performance is amazing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works outside I initially got this because the wifi card in my laptop stopped working and I wanted to try this before more costly options. But this ended up being way better because now I can get a strong wifi signal on our back porch and now I can work efficiently outside! It also picks up signal at the arboretum by me so I can work there too :) LOVE!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wi-Fi Boost I used this to improve the speed of my wi-fi on a pretty old computer. This device more than doubled the speed.
