This is version 1 of the TPLINK TL-WN725N, which means that you can't find drivers that work for it on Windows 10 32 or 64 bit. Sometimes it'll just connect miraculously, and other times it won't. Without support for any kind of drivers, or even utility software for windows 10 PCs, you're kind of just stuck with it not working if it decides to fail; and it decides to fail a lot of the time. When it works all on its own, its great. Good speed, good range, without being able to connect to 5G - or at least mine doesn't. I forget which radio signals work with what, but the 2.4G always works if it is able to connect.

TL;DR:
Pros:
Good speed
Good range
Cheap as hell
Will sometimes work by itself
Very easy to add to a PC or laptop
Cons:
Fails to read WiFi signals from all radio types often
Won't connect to any 5G WiFi
Very unreliable
No drivers or utilities support for Windows 10
Wouldn't recommend unless it's your only option.
I have been using it for just over a month and it works great. Very low profile to plug into a laptop and you get great download and upload speeds with it - comparable to the onboard Wi-Fi card. Great replacement if your onboard Wi-Fi card starts failing and a lot cheaper in most instances.
Highly recommended!

* When i bought the first one, after plugging in when i took out, the plastic cover came off while the usb stick still inside the usb port
* Had to take it back to center, who gave me a replacement & i mentioned the signal reception is not good enough but was told this is a pretty well running product and very commonly used so it should work \
* Plugged it again on the desktop but the signal strength was still not good for a small range within the small house/distance
* Eventually, had to run an ethernet cable underneath the floor & go through the hassle

The wifi device in my laptop died. I had three choices, put a cable in, replace the internal wifi device or buy this. I didn't want ugly cables going through my lounge to the modem/router and this was the cheapest alternative. It works great and hasn't missed a beat yet. The wifi device in my laptop died.

It works amazing and is compact so looks good the only thing is is it’s only 5ghz won’t work on 2.5ghz but for most people that’s fine just something to realize.

Bought after a ThinkPad 10 obstinately refused to find any Wifi networks. After lots of troubleshooting, re-installs of various versions of OS, and drivers I gave up and pulled the trigger on this wee adapter purchased from Christchurch store
Pros: Works right out of the box. No drivers to load, Win 10 recognized it immediately and all that was required was entering SSID and password. It's only 150 MBPS but still able to surf the web, video conference on Zoom or Microsoft Teams, and run Netflix so no speed problems there. No need to purchase the more expensive faster versions.

Cons: It sticks out 8 mm from the side of the unit so will get knocked about in a bag. A problem for the ThinkPad: the USB port is protected by a port cover that is tethered to the unit. It swings aside to allow the port to be used but if the adapter is to be left permanently in the slot there is a danger that sooner or later the port cover will part from the tablet.
