AC1300 Dual Band USB Adapter

The AUTYUE USB 3.0 wireless adapter adds AC1300 dual-band Wi-Fi to a desktop, laptop or Mac. It connects through a USB 3.0 port and uses an external 5dBi high-gain antenna. The device supports the WiFi5 standard and is backward compatible with older 802.11 b/g/n networks.

Suits Windows and Mac users needing AC1300 speeds

This adapter suits users running Windows 11 down to XP or Mac OS 10.9 to 10.15 who want 867 Mbps on 5.8 GHz or 400 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. It is not for buyers who need Bluetooth connectivity. It is also not for systems that only have USB 1.1 ports and require full throughput.

USB 3.0 interface with 5dBi antenna

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.0 interface combined with the external 5dBi dual-band antenna. USB 3.0 provides the necessary bandwidth for AC1300 performance and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. The antenna provides up to 100 m indoor range depending on environment.

Questions about this item

Which speed tier should I pick between the 400 Mbps and 867 Mbps bands?

Use the 5.8 GHz band for up to 867 Mbps when the router is close and you need maximum throughput; switch to the 2.4 GHz band at 400 Mbps for better range through walls.

What does the AC1300 label mean once the adapter is installed in my computer?

It represents the combined theoretical ceiling of both bands — 400 Mbps on 2.4 GHz plus 867 Mbps on 5.8 GHz — not a single-link speed you will see in a speed test.

How does the USB 3.0 interface affect the real-world throughput of this WiFi5 adapter?

USB 3.0 provides enough bandwidth to let the adapter reach its 867 Mbps PHY rate on 5.8 GHz, whereas USB 2.0 would cap practical throughput well below that figure.
