I have a desktop computer and need to connect to the wifi at an RV park. Will this adapter work for that?

Yes, it will allow you to connect your desktop to a wireless router. That is what it is for. It is "dual" band because now routers sometimes come as dual band routers and you can then connect to either band. Of course, it will not give you "free" internet service where none is available. If the RV park has internet service that you have to pay for, you will still have to pay for it ... but at least this adapter will allow you to get the wireless service.

yes, but it is very slow compared to other adapters of the same price range. Mine is sitting in drawer because it is to slow.

Yes, but the RV park may require a password, if they do not your Netgear should show it as an available WiFi site and all you have to do is sign on

it should work fine once you google how far the nearest broadcast station is located from where your RV is Parked. Not sure it will bet good connection while Driving

I believe it should but to be sure you may want to open up your laptop to see which configuration the wireless card is.

Yes, it does work, I am hooked to it right now, or I couldn't pick up wifi. We live in RV resorts that only offer wifi and if u aren't really close to the signal, forget it. I have been hooked to mine now for 3 years. Don't expect really long distances, but a decent range on this thing for sure. Order a longer cord, so you can move it around inside or set it outside. Really have loved mine!!

Hello. Yes this adapter will work perfectly for the application you are talking about. It does not matter what brand of adapter you use with your router as long as you follow the setup instructions during install. MS Vista is fine as well. Have a great day.

Should work if you have windows operating system. Maybe others too. Then it becomes a feature of the computer just like wireless internet (similar feature).

I have one in my RV and one at home. I have no problem with connecting to a wifi at home or on the road. I hope this helps with your decision. I use to us an usb adapter but this does a much better job.

Yes it should be perfect for picking up signals from farther away. I used to use mine at the RV Park. It is basically just an amplified wireless antenna receiver. It comes with a driver CD, which I just checked and it has a MAC OS 10 driver.

Yes, it should (I have booted from mine many times). Unless you use a bus-powered drive, or a portable RAID, which is especially power-hungry, then this adapter might supply insufficient power. Most portable drives are reasonable and work.

Not sure what you are talking about ADAPTER?? I use it with a Verizon WIFI Hot Spot, AND I connect it to a Wilson Cradle for Cell Phones or the Hot Spot if it is needed.

It would probably depend on how strong the signal is from the public network. I have had this NetGear universal wifi adapter for a few years now and it has worked with everything that I've plugged it into. Still working. Recently hooked it up to my Blu-ray player that has built in wifi but was getting a weak signal...improved signal reception a lot.

This is a wireless adapter. It connects to a wireless router with computers like a desktop. It is not a wireless router. You need to buy a wireless router for you are wanting to do.

Yes. It will work. But you need a special driver for the adapter itself. I dont exactly remember which ones got it to work.

Depends on your set up...if you are running Ethernet from a modem, and through the power line adapter, and then into a wireless router...yeah it should work

If you buy the adapter, it will use your Ethernet connection. This is the adapter I use: Tronsmart USB 2.0 to RJ45 LAN Ethernet Network Adapter for MINI PC Mac Tablet

We use it in an RV park where we cannot pickup wifi. We went from no signal to 5 bars...no problem.

I haven't use it for such connection but in specifications the device purpose is to connect desktops or laptops to a network.
