Currently, I use this with my desktop PC and have had no problem running Elder Scrolls Online on max settings until just recently. After ruling everything else out, I think the adapter is dying after ~2 years of use. I have a Comcast Xfinity 50 Mbps connection and all other devices in the same room as the Linksys zip right along at high speeds. The Linksys has served well for awhile but I am looking into Coax to Ethernet as an alternative solution that will be less expensive and more reliable.

I have used it for my ps4 and my gaming pc. Both worked flawlessly. If you have an ethernet port it will work

Yessir it will! I've had a bit of ping issues with it though when playing games such as League of Legends, but for the most part it's smooth sailing. I'm not sure if the ping is caused by an overabundance on my network, or just the luck of the draw. But yes, it will work.

I don't play games much either. But I also have AT&T; and I experienced some lag playing online games. This little adapter helps, but if the games your playing require more speed than you may have to upgrade your service. Sorry wish I could tell you more.

Should work fine. My computer is on 2nd floor at opposite end of the house where the router is located.

It is bluetooth connection only. I would not use it for gaming as the connection isn't very fast, you also have some issues with pressing keys close together. It will continue pressing a key if you continue to break the detection plane. It has sort of a multi-touch, with the function keys, but it's not great. So yes it might work for your games, but there are much better products out for gaming, especially if you're ok with connecting a wire.

I connect in tower, it works great. My tower is not set up for wireless, so just plug into USB on computer.

no its a wired lan adapter. If you want a wireless connector search for Edimax on amazon.

Hello Dave, I am not sure if this one will work in place of your fios router. I know my cable installer from (Charter) told me to go buy my own instead of paying a monthly fee. I ordered this one and was able to install myself. It has worked perfectly, I use wifi for my laptop, and my android phone. No problems. Good solid reception, I can even go out to my patio and front yard. Hope this helps, why not google your question comparing item vs. fios router. ...Have a good day

I would recommend getting a USB type, there are expasion slots inside but I have found using an external DLink USB transmitter works well if you have N Technology on your wireless router be sure to get an N type USB card

I have Verizon fios router and it worked fine, however I wouldn't recommend this device as my signal kept dropping and I got so frustrated that I removed it from my network and no longer use it.

Cisco my have more information on their site about the product. I brought the Linksys AE3000 N900 dual band USB wireless adapter, this is for HD video and gaming I love it and will buy a few for the other wireless devices in my home. I also have the Cisco E4200 to pair it with. The speed is up to 450Mbps. I hope this helps you out

I use this router to connect my Wii and DVD player. Both of those have WiFi capability. Therefore, I would surmise that it would work similarly with a PC or other WiFi enabled device.

Thanks for your post on this discussion regarding wireless connection for this TV. I still have a few questions.When you unhook your gaming adaptor and connect it to TV, you still need to connect your wireless router back to PC. So in that case, will this trick work using two regular wireless routers, one connected to PC and on to TV (after the wep key step)? I am not into gaming, so I don't want to spend a lot on the gmaing adaptor.

Christopher...Unfortunately I am not a gamer so cannot speak first hand. But I wish I could get a screen shot of the App page on the TV...loads of games and access to the internet is oly dependent on your wifi connection speed. USB ports give you options for keyboards, etc. Go to a local retailer and try it out and ask all the questions you have.

It wouldn't matter because it's the worst USB net card I've ever used. I ended up with a LinkSys AE1000 - Save your money (and sanity) and buy whatever the replacement is for the AE1000.
