The device carries a one-year warranty from Linksys.How to Update WUSB6300 Device Drivers Quickly & Easily Step 1 - Download Your Driver Amazon currently has it for a more competitive $37.99. The Linksys WUSB6300 AC1200 Wireless USB 3.0 Adapter is widely available at a full retail price of $70, making it one of the more expensive AC1200 USB adapters. Unlike other manufacturers' utilities that sit in the system tray and, when clicked, display information, the Linksys software doesn't tell you anything about the connection or control any settings. The adapter maintained a stable connection to our AC1200 router, and never dropped its link. Both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks are detected. The utility confirms the setup, shows available target networks, asks for a password and connects. Once the software wizard was installed, the rest of the installation proceeded smoothly. This software got the adapter working in Windows 10 and, despite our initial issues, subsequently worked without any hiccups. The alternative to using the software CD is Linksys' Connect Setup Software for PC, which can be downloaded here. It was also frustrating that the Linksys support site only had bare drivers, making it more painful to manually install them. The CD started to autoplay, but then the installation stalled. Admittedly, the process wasn't as smooth as we wanted it to be. Although Linksys explicitly supports all versions of Windows from XP onward, Windows 10 is not yet part of that list. We also wanted to test the software's compatibility with Windows 10. The install package takes up only 22MB, which is less than products from some other manufacturers. The whole process took less than five minutes. On a Windows 8.1 laptop, the software CD loads automatically, walking you through setup step by step.

As you'll see in an upcoming round-up of AC1200 USB Wi-Fi adapters, the highest-performing products are typically those with deployable antennas. Mainly, Linksys' design does not offer an external antenna, meaning there's no way to improve your connection to the router. However, the svelte dimensions impose certain limitations. It is the thinnest, shortest and lightest of the models we tested. The WUSB6300 has a tapered shape and is more compact than some other adapters.

The WUSB6300's two LEDs provide quite a bit of useful info on the connectivity status of the adapter, provided that you know how to read them.
