Works perfectly with the Raspberry Pi
Works out of the box with a Raspberry Pi (on Raspberry Pi OS).lsusb output:Bus 001 Device 004: ID 148f:5370 Ralink Technology, Corp.

Very good with Access Point mode
Setting this in WiFi extender mode in my experience, didnt work very well. Intially i was very dissapointed, but when i reset the device and set it up in Access Point mode it worked perfectly. I have a ethernet hub located uptairs far from the router, i connected this device to my hub using an ethernet cable and now i am very satisfied with this purchase.

What sorcery is this?!!
Trying to breathe life into a 15-year-old laptop using Google Flex OS which loaded fine but was not compatible with the Wi-Fi chipset inside the laptop.Managed to get the Wi-Fi working by tethering to my phone but how messy is that right?Did some research and this is one of the major shortcomings of the Google Flex OS.However, it does appear that any Wi-Fi dongle with the 'ralink rt5370' chipset will in fact work and blow me down so it did! Transfer speeds aren't great, but absolutely fine for what's needed.Also who doesn't want a retro aerial sticking out of a 15-year-old laptop!!

Works perfectly
The media could not be loaded. Arrived earlier than expected,works perfectly on my 250 mag box,you need to go into your network settings and put it on Wi-Fi then put in your Wi-Fi password then connect,after you have done that it works fine

Not RT5370, Does not work.
Despite stating to be RT5370, the actual chipset for these are MT7601U

Did not help signal strength for Brennan B3
I bought this to try to improve signal strength on a Brennan B3 . The advice was "In some situations it may be necessary to replace the standard dongle with an RT5370 type (the chip-set used in the dongle) with a built-in antenna" . It didn't work. I have given this 3 stars because it may just be the wrong bit of kit for the problem.
