The published speed by the manufacturer is 150Mbps (downlink) and 150Mbps (uplink). You might be able to achieve these speeds at a distance of maybe 2 feet from the router. More realistic speeds in practical applications is more like 54-36Mbps. This adapter is a good choice for adding network connectivity for day to day to web surfing.
