Alfa AWUS036H USB WiFi adapter, old but gold The adapter operates in the 2.4GHz frequency range, with 802.11b/g communication standards. Why we are writing about AWUS036H? you will understand a little later, having familiarized yourself with the main characteristics of this device and its capabilities. But all in order …
From the outside you do not always see it on a wireless adapter, which features it mastered. There are already clear differences.
WiFi adapters compliant with IEEE 802.11b and 11g standards are now outdated. You can still use them. However, you should not buy new ones.
