the usb wifi card lacks sufficient speed.
I checked the adapter you mentioned and it claims compatibility but doesn’t show the actual speeds. I’ve looked into your setup and found that your USB Wi-Fi adapter should work with speeds around 250 Mbps download, though real performance may vary. Your device’s speed is currently 250 Mbps down, which is solid for a USB adapter. For speeds between 30-40$, consider mid-range options like the TP-Link Archer AX530 or ASUS RT-AX8600G. Let me know if you need more details!
I believe the issue lies with the USB WiFi connection. They usually offer the poorest speed compared to other options, except for no connectivity. Consider using a PCI slot WiFi card—they provide significantly faster performance than USB. For advice, I suggest choosing products with strong ratings on Amazon or Newegg. I can’t really make specific suggestions because my device already has built-in WiFi and the router is close to my PC desk.
USB wifi cards can only send up to 150 megabits. That means you'll notice around 15 to 25 megabits each second.
I searched for USB WiFi adapters some time back, and discovered they usually offer rates above 150mbps.
There are many AC dual band adapters available that work via USB and offer speeds over 150 megabits per second. The options you saw were basic single-stream, single-band 802.11n devices, probably the most affordable choices.
