I got a free repurposed computer that I set up in the spare bedroom. Since my router is in the living room this WiFi to ethernet adapter looked like a good solution for connecting that computer to my internet network. Despite the extremely easy set-up, my initial impression of this product wasn't good because while it did work I was getting slow internet speeds despite the WiFi signal being very strong. The fix was easy but didn't occur to me until after I wasted time with extensive troubleshooting even though it was actually the first or second thing that I should have tried. That's on me obviously but first set-up.

I only needed to plug this into an outlet near my router, press the WPS switch on the router, then press the WPS switch on this adapter. In less than 30 seconds the indicator light showed that the adapter was connected to my network. Once connected I unplugged the adapter and moved it into the room where I needed to use it. In less than a minute the indicator showed that it was again connected to my network and I hooked the adapter up to my computer with an ethernet cable. I had internet.

Unfortunately, the internet I had was slow. I tried streaming an Amazon Prime movie and it froze several times until Amazon switched to streaming in standard definition.

To troubleshoot I tested the signal strength at the outlet where this WiFi to ethernet adapter was plugged in using an Android utility on my phone and the WiFi signal was very strong. I then experimented with connecting this to an extension cord instead of directly to the wall outlet and moving the adapter higher up to different shelves on either side of the computer desk but that made no difference because the problem wasn't with WiFi signal strength. I changed settings inside my router to prioritize the ethernet WiFi adapter. I temporarily moved the computer into the living room and connected it directly to my router to verify that the ethernet card wasn't bad. I finally decided the problem had to be the adapter so I gave this product a less-than-glowing review.

Then a few days later I realized I'd missed one of the most obvious troubleshooting steps which was to power cycle my modem and router and low and behold the internet speed I was getting went from not being fast enough to stream anything in HD to fast enough to stream 8K video--the speed I was roughly the same as on my primary computer connected directly to the router via ethernet cable.

The speed with this adapter has been stable and consistent in the three days since I did the power cycle so what had been a disappointing product suddenly gave me better internet speed than I ever expected before making the purchase.

Unless something goes south in the near future (in which case I will update my review again) this appears to be an excellent option if you need WiFi internet on an ethernet-only device. Set-up is fast and easy via WPS (the manufacturer sent me an alternate non-WPS installation method but since power-cycling fixed my issue I didn't end up trying it). I can't say if this actually gets 1200Mbps because my internet service isn't that fast but I am getting roughly the same speed as on my devices directly connected to my modem via ethernet. If you do experience disappointing internet speeds after setting this up then try what I forgot to do and power-cycle your modem and router which is a simple process that takes just a few minutes.

I picked this up because I wanted to connect a smart tv and Amazon Fire Cube to my home wireless network. Setup was pretty easy but I found setup had changed a little from the piece of paper they included. Not a huge deal, just not perfect. I plugged a switch into it and moved it to the room and connected the 2 devices. Both devices have great throughput. Mission Accomplished.

My old Ethernet bridge died after many years of faithful service. While it performed well, it was a bear to setup. This BrosTrend AC1200 setup in less than 5 minutes. And with it plugging directly into the wall, it doesn't have power wires to manage. But most importantly, it works and works well. Buy one, no buy two so you'll have a spare.

Wish they had the fact that it is also a network extender listed in the ad somewhere. Did not want or need that function and can not find a way to disable it. Other than that is seems to work.

I bought this because my son has been experiencing a lot of network disconnects that I traced down to WiFi issues, which appear to be common on the PS5. Connecting his PS5 to this fixed his occasional disconnects. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it seems to have slightly slower performance than what the PS5 does with its own WiFi interface. It's still fast enough for his games, and now we have no disconnects.
