Even 802.11n with multiple streams is not going to exceed USB 2.0 bandwidth; I mentioned USB 3.0 because (in addition to increased bandwidth, irrelevant here) it raises the maximun device power to 900 mA from 500 mA.From what I understand, the second USB connection is only there to supply the last 100 mW of power to the amplifier, not to increase data throughput.

Not bad at $19. The reviews are not perfect, but pretty high.
