For testing the TRENDnet AC1200 Dual Band Wi-Fi adapter, we have used a Dell 7520 laptop on which we have connected the product in question and two other different TRENDnet adapters. The throughput was measured both ways, first by setting the wired station as a server and uploading data from the laptop and then setting the laptop on wireless as a server and uploading data from the wired station.
The application used was PerformanceTest 8.0, fully compatible with Windows 8.
When the role of the server was set to the wired station, we will consider download, while when the server was the laptop, we will consider upload. Here are the results:
