Outstanding USB Network Adapter

Replacing Linksys AC6300 with these devices across all of our networks. Works well on all of our Windows boxes including XP, 7 and 10. There was only 1 problem with one Windows 10 machine where the device stopped working after an update. Reinstalled the drivers and have had no further problems.

Bargin Monitor

Good monitor for the price. Using it in an industrial application where screen burn is inevitable, so it's a throw away. Nice resolution and good color for the money.

Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

Get these items on sale and they are a bargain. Nice feel to the keyboard excepting the top row of specialty keys which have little or no feedback. This is one of the few wireless keyboard/mouse combinations that work well with SCADA HMI systems.

This item worked great for about a year and then performance started to slip. My internet connection started to drop off at an ever increasing rate. Finally the 5 ghz side of the device just gave up.

will this work with an older windows 98 secong gen computer

I have a hunter alignment rack and laser aligner which uses a sony computer tower and we need to put a wireless adapter on to be able to download new drivers and use a newer printer. Or just send to other printer at another station. will one of your adapters work. this one states that its backwards compatible with 802 etc.
Drivers may be an issue

Does it come with Windows 8 or 8.1 installed?

The specs say it comes with Win 8.1, but reading several reviews, it sounds like it comes with Win 8 and you have to install 8.1 yourself. Can someone please verify which version of Windows it comes with?
