My usual access point is no good here as it doesn’t support the full speed that this device has to offer, so I’ve switched it up a bit and used the TP-Link AC1900 router instead. That gives us a good headroom and allows me to show the performance of the USB adapter.
I will be using doing performance tests with both static and variable package sizes and also adjust the distance between the USB adapter and the access point it is connected to in order to give a full view of the adapter, including coverage abilities.
While it’s easy to test and give you comparable view on the wired connections, we need to keep in mind that environmental factors can’t be avoided with the wireless signals and that there might be variations to other scenarios.
