Review by Nick - The Netgear A6210 is an adapter that is designed to be portable. I rate the range of this adapter to be average as far as small adapters with no external antenna go so if you need a long range adapter, look elsewhere. On the other hand, if range is not an issue, this adapter is easy to pack and take on the road. It comes with a good quality USB3 extension cable plus cradle. It is a stable performer. I have noted that it runs a little warm which is unusual for Mediatek chipset based adapters. Users looking for a portable AC1200 adapter that uses an in-kernel driver and has good performance over short to medium distances should be happy with this adapter. Note: Due to the somewhat limited range of this adapter, I do not recommend it for use in AP mode unless your requirement is only for same room connections. I also do not recommend this adapter for security analysis/pen testing because of the limited range.
