One of the best purchases I have made. First of all, it is plug and play. I have it on my desktop because there is no phone line nearby where my desk is. I have a 24-hour connection, no disconnections, and I download at an average speed of 1.5 Mbps. The distance from the router is about 3 meters without obstacles and it has been working flawlessly under these conditions for a year and a half. I had bought the product a few years ago and had it in a system with a distance of about 10 meters from the router, and it would constantly disconnect. So, for short distances (like how I have it now), it is ideal, but for longer distances, you might need to look for something else.
