    Hey good thread. Ok so I purchased 3 adapters from here www.dhgate.com/prodetail.do?proid=ff8080812e32cf1f012e375001360ba0 I paid $15.85 US dollars for each. But Im a bit doubtful abouttheir authenticity. They look real, they have the sticker on the back and they work just like the real thing. Maybe Crackerz Wave can work his magic in verifying the legitimacy of these Alfa awus036h with rtl8187l. I still think I got a good deal. ...lol..I hope

    Maybe we can not say they are fake, they are china-made products, cheap with quite reasonable prices and best after-sale services really absorb the consentration for you!
    Do you think so?

    You won't know till you get it :facepalm: . You could always buy another brand that way you won't have a "fake" Alfa and save some money.

    I can :) GENUINE I got my AWUS036NHR from them (adapterbest), had to dig up a very old email.

    But send an email if you are getting the H to see if it is the 500mW or the 1000mW model.

    You may track the information on below website:
    http://app3.hongkongpost.com/CGI/mt/enquiry.jsp

    By Hong Kong Post Register Airmail, it takes about 14 working days to arrive.

    I mentioned to Crackerz Wave that I had purchased an Alfa AWUS036H
    for a very low price of $15.00 U.S. Dollars. (he verified that they were FAKE):( but when I tested it, exact performance as an authentic one. Website is Dhgate.com from China..I love it..works beautiful! Though other websites do sell horrible ones.

    Hello!

    I see a kit containing AWUS036H, 5dbi antenna plus a 7dbi panel antenna, is this a legitimate package? Price is $30-40.

    Personally, I would not recommend the the package with the 7 dbi flat panel antenna. I was disappointed whit the results of the flat panel..but that's my personal experience with it...as to legitimacy, yes it's a bundle Alfa puts together and the price is about right.
