Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've used TP-Link's ethernet adapters before as this is the only way to get a reliable network connection in my apartment. I recently upgraded my internet speed (from 100 to 200mbps) and so I needed a faster adapter (my old adapters were rated at 100mbps), and went with TP-Link to ensure the new devices would play nice with my old ones. Seeing as these are advertised as being able to achieve data rates of 500mbps, and the adapter itself says plainly "500 Mbps" right on it, I thought that would do the trick. However, now that I have gotten them home I've found that TP-Link is outright lying about the device. It is NOT capable of reaching 500mbps. These adapters are strictly limited to a 100mbps connection because of the cheap ethernet port they ship with, and therefore entirely incapable of delivering speeds that are faster than this. This is not a 5000mbps device, despite TP-Link's intentionally misleading naming scheme and the provided information on this page and on the device itself. There is no benefit to buying these overpriced adapters when a cheaper adapter will give you the exact same connection speed (100mbps). I'm extremely disappointed in TP-Link, a company whose products I previously had good experiences with. I will not be purchasing any future products from TP-Link if they can't even be honest about what those products do when selling them to me. I would have gladly payed more for a device that actually performed at 500mbps, because now all I have done is waste my money. Now I'm stuck with an overpriced set of adapters that are exactly the same as the cheaper models I already had and provide no extra performance for the high cost. A total waste of money and time.
