## Long description

The Netgear A8500 Wireless USB Adapter is a USB network adapter designed for PCs that need Wi‑Fi 7 performance. It supports IEEE 802.11be (Wi‑Fi 7) tri‑band operation across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz and delivers combined data rates up to 2882 Mbit/s. The adapter plugs into a USB 2.0 or 3.0 host port and includes a flip‑open, adjustable antenna design plus internal high‑gain antennas to improve reception and coverage near the computer.
Advantages
The adapter provides high throughput for demanding tasks such as 4K/8K streaming, low‑latency gaming and large file transfers, and supports modern security with WPA3 encryption. Tri‑band capability allows the device to select the least congested band for better signal quality, and compatibility with existing routers ensures it can work on mixed Wi‑Fi networks while reaching full Wi‑Fi 7 benefits with a Wi‑Fi 7 router. Setup is plug‑and‑play on supported Windows 11 systems.
Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

 Upgrading a PC without built‑in Wi‑Fi 7 support
When it may not be suitable
This adapter will not deliver full Wi‑Fi 7 speeds and features unless paired with a Wi‑Fi 7 compatible router and a host system configured to take advantage of the standard. Systems that only have older USB ports or unsupported operating systems may experience limited performance or require drivers not included in the operating system. It is intended for use with PCs; it is not a built‑in solution for devices that lack a USB host port.
