Conclusion

There is little that can be said about the DWA-142 adapter. We like it because of its original design. It is certainly different externally from other Wi-Fi adapters with a USB interface. We can note one serious drawback about it: the DWA-142 works poorly with the Intensify chipset. This adapter is going to be a perfect choice for a desktop PC because it can be oriented optimally in space, as opposed to PCI cards.
