Good product when it works
I had assembled a new PC based on Gigabyte AMD B450 AORUS Pro motherboard and this card does not seem to play the ball with it - similarly to other people, it might connect but then within a few seconds the connection drops to 0. And then it is connected but there is no internet connection... (Using different drivers did not help)
I asked Scan for the replacement which they have sent but it has the same problem. However plugging it into a 8 year old GA-X58A UD3R shows very nice results...
So I guess if it does have the same symptoms - connects inconsistently, speed drops to 0 - do not ask for a replacement, just return it and get a different product.

Losing connect not connecting to 5GHz
It won't connect to 5G and loses connect constantly on Windows 10. Tried various drivers, full reinstall etc. My other wireless adaptors work fine.
Email scan about it and have received no reply.

Good speed but problems gaming
Bought this for my partner who has sky Q broadband. Installation was easy and initial speed tests were promising but gaming was another story. The problem my have been in her router/isp but despite good ping/download tests there was awful latency and disconnects in games. I thought the problem might lie in the 5ghz band, unfortunately this adapter has no option to disable one specific band. Picked up a tplink 300mbps ac (2.4ghz only) and it's a little slower download speed but gaming is fine, no lagging at all.
All in all I can't be sure the problem lay in the adapter over the router settings so I've given it 3 stars.
