Holds it's signal well, from the end of my garden, where it is living. The only issue I had to solve was why it occasionally dissappeared from my network. It turns out you need to switch power-saving mode off... Create the file /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf and add the line options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=0 Then reboot. Solid after that.

Even a 'numpty' like me can get this working - just plug it in - BINGO!

The adapter arrived on time at a reasonable price and very good postage. I plugged it in, set up WiFi on my Raspberry Pi, and it didn't work. I realised I had set up the security mode to WPA-PSK2 instead of WPA-PSK which is what I needed. I corrected my mistake and the adapter worked straight away without the need to load any drivers. I have used the Pi upstairs where my router is located and downstairs on the main TV and have had no problems at all. This adapter seems to be an excellent, neat piece of kit. I have given it 4 stars as I haven't rated anything at 5 stars yet. I would recommend this adapter and Pi Hut postage is way cheaper than the company I was going to buy this from.

Delivery was very quick, and the kit itself works like a charm. Absolutely no set-up required on the newest Raspbian,

Worked like a charm straight out of the box!

Due to the small form factor, the Wi-Fi dongle is a perfect addition for a RPi. Installed nicely without any manual configuration in Raspbian.

I ordered the wifi adapter and it arrived quickly via regular mail. Installing it was easy, I just followed the instruction from the Pi Hut website. Now my Raspberry has a wireless connection that works seamlessly. Good stuff, no USB Hub needed.
