Bought a Toshiba Satellite S50-B with an Intel Wifi and Bluetooth chip in it (the cheaper one). That chip turned out to be non-functional which many online comments support. Was rather annoyed because the rest of the laptop is exactly what I had expected. Could have returned it under warranty or sale of goods act etc, but that would have been hassle and I would have lost an otherwise decent machine. So I hunted for a USB Wifi dongle and found this little thing. PERFECT. No bluetooth of course but my concern was connecting to the internet. Streaming 1080p movies etc without issue, and the "handshake" for connection to the router is almost instant, as it should be. Also critically, for me at least, is that this is LOW low profile so you can keep it plugged in when you put the laptop back in its case (depending on case).
