A small-sized Wi-Fi adapter in USB stick format with support for Wi-Fi 4 wireless networks. It is positioned as an affordable model of the basic price category, designed to connect a desktop personal computer, HTPC system or laptop to a wireless network operating in the range of 2.4 GHz. Despite its compact overall dimensions and modest weight, the device is equipped with two internal antennas.
The TP-LINK TL-WN823N Wi-Fi adapter differs from more low-cost models by its full support for MIMO technology, which provides parallel two-channel data transmission. In this case, the MIMO 2x2 mode is implemented, which, according to the manufacturer, allows you to get a theoretical throughput of up to 300 Mbps (with the support of MIMO 2x2 by the client device). The actual data transfer rate near the router is 100-110 Mbps and it is quite enough for comfortable viewing of FullHD-resolution streaming video, comfortable surfing, file-sharing network clients, cloud services, gaming and file transfer of significant sizes. Thanks to proprietary software, it can perform the function of a software-organized access point.
