  • Who still has a disc drive?
First of all, this is a great wifi card. I've had no drops and a constant strong signal in my house that is notorious for dropped signals. The physical installation of the car is straight forward and easy. The magnet base is really cool and sticks to the side o my desk. I took off a star because in order to install the drivers you either have to have a disc drive (who does???) or download them off the website. Which would be fine except I need wifi in order to download the drivers. See the problem here? I ended up having t lug my whole rig downstairs and plug directly into out router in order to get it working. Ugh. ... show more

  • FINALLY !!!
Boy, oh boy does this work well. I'm getting consistent 500-800Mbps without any network drops. Spend the money, I probably spend twice as much trying to find an inexpensive solution and now I'm left with a bunch of useless USB WiFi adapters.

  • Exceeded my expectations
Hands down the best wifi card Ive ever used. This card was a bit overkill for the current 250mbps broadband speed I pay for, but I wanted something that would be capable of the 1gb speeds I plan to upgrade to when I move into my new house. Anyway so I needed a good wifi card because I recently sold my house and moved into an apartment temporarily until my new home is completed. Since I am in an apartment at the moment I had to downsize my network and I could snake cat6 cables through the walls terminating in every room like I did at my house. So for the most part all of my devices are now running wireless with the exception of my nas, but thats a different story. Since I never had to rely on a wireless connection for my PC's before my main PC had an old wireless N card in it that just was not going to cut it. So it was time for an upgrade. Did some research and narrowed it down between this card and the TP-link Archer T9E. Both of the cards are great and they are both capable of the gigabit speeds I plan on. Ultimately I chose the ASUS card for one reason. I liked that I could position the antennas where ever I wanted rather than them just being screwed to the PCIe card. So far I have had the card for a month and its going strong. The Wifi card is running in my main desktop along with a linksys EA8300 router and a Netgear CM1000 cable modem. I have yet to have any problems with this card. Never have I lost a connection to the internet due to the wifi card and it has never failed to connect to the internet once the computer is booted. This card has actually exceeded my expectations as it is consistently allowing me 300mbps download and 12mbps upload which is more than the 250mbps upload I pay for. This in an apartment complex where there are 100's of wifi signals; a notoriously bad place for a wireless connection. So yeah Im quite happy. I still get really slow transfer speeds to my NAS, but that isnt the fault of the wireless card. That is just the nature of the game. Still it sucks transferring something like 30gb blu-ray movie to my nas wirelessly. It takes for ever. Im use to about 120mbps transfer speeds to and from my Nas, but with the wireless connection I am only getting a consistent 35mbps. Brutally slow, but its just something I have to deal with for now. ... show more

  • Good speed improvement with antenna stand only.
When I first installed this card on my Windows 10 PC, the antennas were installed directly into the card. I bought this card to use the antennas installed at the back of the computer tower. I noticed a decrease in speed compared to my built-in wifi card and experienced regular connection loss. I checked for newer drivers, but it seems as if drivers have not been released for a few years. So I decided to give the external antenna stand a try. That made all the difference. With the external stand installed about two feet away from my computer tower, my wifi speeds have increased seven fold over my PCs built-in wifi. (My home internet is 1 GB, so I had room to grow.) Since switching to the external antenna holder I haven't had any freezing or loss of connection either. I am in video meetings all day and run some pretty high bandwidth workloads through this machine. So this was a much needed upgrade to my PCs wireless connection. I don't understand why I had to move the antennas away from the tower to get a good connection and I'm saddened by the lack of recent driver updates, but it does exactly what I bought it for once I switched to the external antenna stand. ... show more

  • GREAT WIFI DEVICE!
I was skeptical at first... but man, this didn't let me down. What a great wifi device. My kid (lives with his mother) in a 3 story house. It's rather big... and we needed something that would "work" but didn't break the bank. This is just that. Arrived in a store shelf box (not a normal brown box) - hook up was easy. Went online and downloaded the newest drivers, installed, all works! THANK YOU! ... show more
