Review: Excellent WiFi - Solution to Fixing Virgin Media Hub 5 - Really good product. I like that it auto-loads its drivers by appearing as a virtual USB CD-ROM (this disappears once the drivers are installed). The extendable arm is also a nice touch and seems to help with signal strength. At first I had Wi-Fi issues where Windows showed “No internet” despite staying connected to the router. The problem wasn’t with the product but rather by the Virgin Media Hub 5 and its Channel Optimization feature. This constantly forces devices to hop between channels, which causes disconnections. How I fixed it: 1) Connect to the Wi-Fi normally with the password. 2) If you get “No internet,” restart the router (temporary fix). 3) Go to 192.168.0.1 and log in using the password on the bottom of the Hub 5. 4) Navigate to Advanced Settings → Wireless → Wireless Signal. 5) Under Smart WiFi, disable Channel Optimization. 6) For 2.4GHz, set Channel to Manual and choose Channel 6. 7) For 5GHz, set Channel to Manual and choose Channel 36. After this, the adapter performs excellently. My PC is one floor and two walls away from the router, and I’m getting around 90% of my 500 Mbit/s speed, far better than the powerline solution I was using before which was giving me 20%.
Review: Performs really well. - Excellent! My broadband connection is 900Mbps and this is achievable on my PC using ethernet. I tested this adapter on a Pixel 9, iPhone16, Pixelbook and Win11 laptop. First I tested wifi speed close to the router, then the adapter connected into my router. These are the results, all in Mbps.... Pixel9 wifi=225, adapter=375 iPhone16 wifi=217, adapter=335 Pixelbook wifi=486, adapter=917! Win11 laptop wifi=297, adapter=721 So the adapter performed really well. If you need to improve your download speed, this adapter will deliver.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good bluetooth and wifi signal
*by G***D on 11 October 2025*

Provides PCs with good bluetooth and Wifi connectivity. Super easy to install. The signal could be better but as long as the PC is not too far from the wifi router you’ll be good.
