The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    How is it? Fast download speed? Slow upload speed? Bad or good for gaming?

    Its not very fast. The download speeds are not very fast, as well as the upload speeds, and its so-so for gaming at the best.

    I would only get this as a last resort if you can't get broadband in your area.
