How To Use Tp Link High Gain Wireless Usb Adapter

[Ken Reels]

TheTL-WN822N has two high-gain external antennas to insure stronger signal transmission and reception, which helps you to access a stable Wi-Fi connection across your home, even when your router is on a different floor.

The desktop-style design is beneficial for the signal reception in various application environments. TL-WN822N also provides 1.5m USB extension cable, which is convenient for your installation, even for the desktop equipment.

The TL-WN822N High Gain USB Adapter is a 300Mbps wireless client, which allows users to connect a desktop or notebook computer to a wireless network and access a high-speed Internet connection. It is fully interoperable with IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless devices, delivering speedy 11n speeds and reliable signal for lag-free online gaming, Internet calls or even HD video streaming.

*Maximum wireless transmission rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Range and coverage specifications are based upon test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission rate and wireless coverage are not guaranteed, and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition.

Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, Internet service provider factors and other environmental conditions.

My pi is running in my shed, quite a distance away from my house. It's working but I thought I would try and improve its wifi signal by purchasing a high-gain wireless adapter. I'm having a nightmare trying to install it though.

Price-wise there are adapters by tp-link that are very cheap with 4 and 5 dbi antenna but the information on compatibility is killing me. If I am to pay 40 Euros for an Alfa card, only to have to buy a Y cable and a power supply it will cost more like 55 euros. Surely there is an option that is cheaper and doesnt require external power.

A lot of the wireless chipsets support the same kernel module (the driver) as they belong to the same family, thus the same driver works. However certain models require their own firmware to run properly. Think of firmware like an extension to the kernel module that is not open source (specifically, firmwares are a way for manufacturers to get around the GPLv2 licensing of the Linux kernel, and be able to release a custom driver, or at least part of it, without needing to release the source code for that bit).

I also understand that these external devices should not have a driver/chipset that interferes with the existing internal atheros chipset present in the Slate - which is apparently the case with the rt3070 and 8187.

Otherwise, as a possible new alternative, I have since found the following website that promesses speedy european delivery (the following link is a relevant blog post by the store):

If someone is able to clear up the power capabilities of the slate in terms of ability of powering one of the high-gain RT3070 external anttena, I will probably go all out and get the biggest badest RT3070 antenna I can find.

Also, if someone can confirm that the TP-link TL-WN722N v2 with RTL8188EU will provide a real noticable improvement in signal levels, functioning well alongside the internal chipsets of the SLate I may just go for this cheap and easy option.

I found the adapter for 27 Euros which is on the higher end of my margin but I expect that it will be less likely to disapoint than the other options and it will be easy to upgrade with another antenna in the future.

Plug into a USB port and enjoy wireless speeds of up to 300 Mbps. High-gain antenna provides a boosted signal reception so you can enjoy wireless coverage over a wider distance than a regular wireless adapter.

I wanted to share a solution to a reoccuring problem with my A6210 Wifi Adapter that seemed to be causing a problem for a lot of other people as well. Many of the threads on this support community offered solutions that worked for some, but none of them worked for me. I was almost at the point where I was going to junk my A6210, and find a different WiFi adapter.

The problem I was having was that the adapter would intermittently disconnect. At first it only happened once or twice a week, then as time went on at least once a day. About a week ago, the problem became so severe that my adapter was disconnecting continuously. It would stay connected only for a few seconds before disconnecting, then reconnecting, failing, and so forth in an unbreaking cycle.

The problem for me was that this solution didn't work at all. I updated my Netgear router's firmware, And I also updated the latest drivers for the A6210 adapter. But nothing worked. The third recommendation on that link ("Try disabling the Minimum Power consumption feature on the adapter") didn't apply, because that option did NOT appear under the Adapter Properties list.

After exhausting the Netgear forums and other sites, I couldn't figure out what else to do. But it occurred to me that the problem might be related to the USB connection. My A6210 is connected to a USB 3.0 port, and the sound that the OS would make each time the adapter lost the WiFi connection was similar to a USB being removed.

SOLUTION: Based on the above clue, I followed the instructions for the third option mentioned earlier, with one critical difference: I changed the Max USB Speed value from "USB Auto" to "USB 3.0" This INSTANTLY fixed the problem. The adapter immediately found the Wifi signal, and the neverending "connect / disconnect" cycle went away. If you are using the A6210 Adapter on a USB 3.0 port, and experiencing this problem, I would give this a try.

I suspect what was happening was that the A6210 and the operating system were not agreeing on which USB speed to use. The adapter was set to auto-adjust to the proper USB connection, and Win10 was similarly trying to negotiate with the device. However, for some reason they got caught in a logical loop wherer neither the OS nor the adapter could actually agree -- hence the inability for the adapter to stay mounted for more than a second or two. .I'm speculating here, but this is the only solution I've found to this problem.

I hope this helps some poor soul that was as stuck as I was with this problem. I'll update this post if the problem reemerges, but hoping that this fixes the problem permanently. I would encourage Netgear to consider adding this solution to your support page for this problem: -A6210-WNDA3100v2-wireless-adapter-intermittently-disconnects

Wenesday, June 5th, 2024 -- Possible solution

I've been dealing with this issue for a couple of days and I think I've found a couple of ways to fix it. I haven't had any disconnections in the past few days since I tried these solutions.

1. Press the Windows key and type "Services".

2. Right-click on "Services" and select "Run as administrator".

3. In the Services window, scroll or press 'n' on your keyboard to find "NetgearSwitchUSB".

4. Right-click on "NetgearSwitchUSB" and select "Properties".

5. In the "General" tab, find "Startup type" in the dropdown menu and select "Disabled".

6. Click "Apply" and then "OK".

Whenever I use my computer for the day, I turn it on and connect it with the Netgear Genei software.

Once it's connected, I restart my computer and it doesn't disconnect for the whole day.

I hope these steps help fix the issue for everyone.

The Edimax EW-7612UAn V2 allows for increased wireless coverage and higher data transmission rates. The latest wireless technology is built into this device to broaden its wireless coverage by 5 times and to reduce dead spots within the wireless range. The EW-7612UAn V2 complies with wireless IEEE 802.11b/g/n standards and can reach data transmission rates of up to 300Mbps when connected to wireless 802.11n devices. It also extends its wireless signal distance, and provides more reliable wireless connections than standard IEEE 802.11b/g wireless networks.
