BearExtender n3 Wi-Fi USB adapter apparently PNP with Android tablet

It would seem that BearExtender n3, a long range USB WiFi adapter designed specifically for Macs, is plug and play with Android. We say “it would seem” because we have access to only one Android tablet computer, and understand that cell phones with Android generally have modified and locked versions of the OS. So we can’t say for sure if it will work on all Android tablets (and it probably won’t work on Android phones because they don’t have the right type of connector), but take a look at what happened when we hooked a BearExtender n3 up to a brand new Android tablet right out of the box:

Confirmed 100% plug and play with my Fly Touch 2 Android tablet. The tablet is great (has HDMI, 1/3 the price of ipad practically) but wireless signal was weak everywhere. I tried your product without much hope it would work, but it did, exactly as your video displays. For those who want long range wireless for their Fly Touch, BearExtender is the way to go.
