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%. ## Features - 300 Mbps wireless high-speed performance - ideal Wi-Fi dongle for smooth HD video, voice streaming and online gaming - Mini-sized USB Wireless adapter and easy unplugged design for convenient portability with a reliable high Performance - Soft AP mode - turns A wired Internet connection to a PC or laptop into a Wi-Fi hotspot - One button security setup - Easily setup a secure wireless connection with one-touch WPS button - Supports Windows 10/8.1/8/7/XP, Mac OS, Linux ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0088TKTY2 | | Best Sellers Rank | 2,028 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 16 in USB Computer Network Adapters | | Box Contents | Quick Installation Guide, Resource CD, Wireless Adapter TL-WN823N | | Brand | TP-Link | | Brand Name | TP-Link | | Color | Black | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | PC&Notebook | | Compatible Operating System Family | Linux, MacOS, Windows | | Compatible devices | PC&Notebook | | Country of Origin | Netherlands | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 68,792 Reviews | | Data Link Protocol | Puerto WLAN 802.11b, Puerto WLAN 802.11g, Puerto WLAN 802.11n | | Data Transfer Rate | 300 Megabits Per Second | | Data link protocol | Puerto WLAN 802.11b, Puerto WLAN 802.11g, Puerto WLAN 802.11n | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 Years | | External Testing Certification | ANATEL: 36481203177 | | Hardware Interface | USB 2.0 | | Hardware interface | USB 2.0 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 18L x 7W x 39H millimetres | | Item Part Number | TL-WN823N | | Item Weight | 2.12 Ounces | | Manufacturer | TP-Link | | Manufacturer Part Number | TL-WN823N | | Minimum Required Operating System Version | Windows 7 | | Model Number | TL-WN823N | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Warranty | 3 year | | Product dimensions | 18L x 7W x 39H millimetres | | UPC | 013342001307 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TP-Link - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** PC&Notebook - **Data link protocol:** Puerto WLAN 802.11b, Puerto WLAN 802.11g, Puerto WLAN 802.11n - **Data transfer rate:** 300 Megabits Per Second - **EU Spare Part Availability Duration:** 2 Years - **Hardware interface:** USB 2.0 - **Item weight:** 2.12 Ounces - **Number of Packs:** 1 - **Product dimensions:** 18L x 7W x 39H millimetres ## Images ![TL-WN823N Mini WiFi Dongle, USB WiFi Adapter for PC | Windows 11/10/8/7/XP, Mac OS, Linux, Mini-sized Design & Portable, SoftAP Mode, Easy Setup, HD Video/Gaming/Streaming - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KCj-XLgJL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Set** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work with windows 10? Also will this cope playing online games like Rust or Ark?** A: I bought the N300 Mbps Exquisite and it was bad for videogames. I tried playing an FPS game and the ping/latency was unchanged from using the ethernet cable before and afterwards but it experienced packet loss and was laggy and unplayable. **Q: I have a sky router at the moment - i plug this into my PC to pick up the wifi signal to get the internet on my PC?** A: Correct - you may need to load the disc that comes with the router into your PC and go through the installation process. You will also then need to log your router onto your WiFi Hub (which means you will need password etc details, usually on the back of the Hub).We have had ours for a couple of months and it works very well. **Q: Will this help with bad Wi-Fi on holiday (Menorca)** A: It can't improve the Wi-Fi signal but it will make the most of whatever is available as it's a good dongle. **Q: is it compatible with Ubuntu?** A: Not tried it - mine is a Windows device. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plug and play 6E wifi *by T***S on 28 July 2026* Excellent wifi antenna giving reliable 6E performance.

I use BT broadband at my own home and I'm able to use my account to access her neighbour's BT hotspot from my mother's PC. The adapter was easy to install and I used the software provided by TP-Link. The adapter picked up a good range of signals from my mother's neighbours (mostly p/w protected) and I could of used my mobile phone wireless tethering facility, but it was more convenient to use her neighbour's BT hotspot. It connected with no problems and I entered my BT details as required to get the connection. The adapter maintained the connection without requiring the password to be re-entered even after being switched off and on again. This is not my usual experience when using a BT hotspot, which normally requires the password to be re-entered if the connection is lost. I'm not sure if this is indicative of slightly questionable TP-Link software. With the adapter still connected to my mother's PC it seems that it's permanently connected to the neighbour's BT hotspot! Not what I expected at all. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link TL-WN823N N300 Mini USB Wireless WiFi network Adapter for pc, Ideal for Raspberry Pi,Black - Micro USB to USB Adapter 2Pack, Micro USB 2.0 OTG Cable On The Go Converter, Nylon Braided, Aluminum Shells, Micro USB Male to USB Female for S7 LG, Flash Drive, Mouse, Keyboard, Game Controller - UGREEN 2 Pack On The Go Adapter Micro USB to USB OTG Cable for Samsung S7 S6 Edge S4 S3 LG G4 DJI Spark Mavic Remote Controller Android Tablets Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/47945460-tl-wn823n-mini-wifi-dongle-usb-wifi-adapter-for-pc](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/47945460-tl-wn823n-mini-wifi-dongle-usb-wifi-adapter-for-pc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
