Alfa AWUS036NEH

The Alfa AWUS036NEH is an old favorite, The longer antenna and high power adapter should have a signal strength advantage compared the other adapters tested so far…
802.11b/g/n
Frequency: 2.4GHz
Antenna: External RP-SMA 5dBi Dipole
USB 2.0

And it does have a good signal!
Pros:
– High signal strength
Cons:
– 2.4GHz Only.
That is a tangible jackpot; I am enjoying katsakis.com.
Here is an interesting presentation recompense you. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=wireless+adapters+usb
In the group of five adapter tested, the AWUS036NEH and Tenda W311M had the highest received signal from the AP of -32dBm and -38dBm. This is contrary to what I expect because Tenda W311M in particular has the smallest antenna and likely no amplifiers from the small size of the adapter. I expected the adapters with the external antennas to have the highest received signal strength. Instead, the dongles with the external antenna like the TL-WN722N had the weakest received signal of -54dBm.
I agree, I was surprised as well. I feel that the little ones don’t have the range of the external antenna models (but didn’t test them at extreme ranges.)
