Easy to install, no any problem to connect to mother board just few screw 🪛, no expertise required, high school graduate can do. Drive can install via CD come in box.
There is also a small clamp for small size cpu. Which don’t required as most of the cpu have standard cutting in cpu metal box.
Just in few movements you can connect your desktop to router

Pela descrição do produto deve valer para quem usa o Windows, o que não é o meu caso; mas no Linux, não tive sucesso de funcionamento nas minhas distribuições favoritas: Debian 11 com Kernel 5.10, Mint 21 com kernel 5.15 e nem mesmo no poderoso Fedora 36 com o kernel 5.18. Até vi que no mundo Linux, tem uns drivers não oficiais que vão funcionar em condições muito específicas, mas não me agrada seguir estas “maracutaias”.

This is probably a great product, but my GPU hangs over the PCIe x1 slot, so I couldn’t use it.

Blazing fast speed and excellent coverage. I’m using this with my ryzen 5 5600X processor desktop, and it’s working fine. You must buy it… Because it’s better than 400-500 rupees adapters, with an 3 years of warranty.

Cuando me cambié a DIGI, me ofrecieron el plan de 10Gb y mi PC solo tenía una tarjeta de 1Gb. Compré otra tarjeta (modelo igual, roja, pero de otra marca), pero no funcionó correctamente, ya que marcaba los 10Gb, pero la conexión se caía cada 3 segundos. Por recomendación del mismo técnico, opté por este modelo que según él funcionaba bien.
El envío fue super rápido y el paquete llegó bien embalado. La instalación fue sencilla, y coloqué el mismo cable que trae la tarjeta, ya que es Cat6a, que es el tipo necesario o recomendado para obtener una velocidad de 10Gb.
Al hacer las primeras pruebas, la tarjeta marcaba 1Gb y un poco más, casi 2Gb. Luego, al eliminar un antivirus que tenía instalado y que limitaba la velocidad, la tarjeta mostró una velocidad mayor.
Siempre juego bajo esta conexión y la verdad es que todo funciona súper rápido. Estoy muy satisfecho con la adquisición y ahora puedo aprovechar al máximo el plan de 10Gb que me ofrecieron.

There are mixed reviews on this card.. Compared to the AX3000e card, this one comes with support for BlueTooth 5.2 The chipset is AX210
Speeds good, I get, 460+ on a 500 Meg line. Happy.
As for stability, only time will tell.

Works as described in my PC. Just sometimes I get net issue like it disconnects for a sec but that van be my service provider issue also. But other than that the BT is superb. Very low latency even while gaming.

Purchased this card as an upgrade over existing D-Link DWA-171 Wireless AC600 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi USB Adapter. Previously used that adapter and TP-Link TL-WN725N 150Mbps Wireless N Nano USB Adapter but was not happy because the inconsistency in connection. After research found out the issue may not be necessarily with the adopters but the USB connection having noises and interference which causes the connection to break for some mil-seconds which is enough to disconnect your gaming session. Though WiFi is not recommended for serious gamer but for recreational gamer like me the PCIe connection is consistent enough over USB. In the box you will get, 1. The Card with black PCB and heat sink (black). Looks premium and well build. The heat sink is the reason I have choose it over Asus AC2100 Dual-Band PCIe 160MHz Wi-Fi Adapter though it has BT5.0. The green pcb, no heatsink, extra cable of asus makes it ugly. 2. 2 Antenna 3. 1 low profile bracket for installing it in thin cases 4. Driver CD (Download driver from website and never use it) 5. Product documentation. Installation is super easy even for dummies just go through any video tutorial and you will be good to go.
Pros, 1. Very good build quality. Feels well put together. 2. For 2.4GHz band, the signal reception is just fantastic. My router (modem+router) is the basic optic fiber one that comes with the service provider so no 5GHz support. But personally I don’t prefer 5GHz since there are few walls in-between my router and PC and I can’t use Ethernet cable for aesthetic purpose. Signal penetration reduces drastically with increase in frequency. And unless you are using a internet having 100Mbps+ you don’t need a 5GHz router. Now to handle interference of signal with your neighbors, I use 20MHz channel and reduced Tx power to 35%. Even then with this card i get full network. 3. Speed is good enough for my 20MBps capped broadband connection and ping is fantastic for a Wi-Fi. Only 2-3ms for local servers. For google.com I have tested ping which is 55-60ms. However if you are using a better connection your mileage will be better. 4. Decent for recreational gamer. If you are not very serious in your online sessions, this this card will be great. I play few online racing games (like FH4, Heat) and never faced any lag with this card.
Cons: 1. No Bluetooth.
So here is my verdict. If you are searching how to connect your desktop with your router wireless, then avoid dongles and get this card. It will serve you well for all of your day to day needs and some gaming as well. But not recommended for serious gamers and a Ethernet connection is way to go.
Update: 1. I have purchased a new router because the old one which which came with the ISP started to show problems. Purchased Netgear AC2000 (R6850) router with 5GHz support. I have tested this card with with 5GHz and as I have mentioned earlier due to 2 walls in between (but distance is very less), it is barely getting 2 bars and the signal strength is -70dBm not good I would say, BUT I have never faced a connection drop even with this low coverage of 5GHz. 2. Tested with online file transfer in the routers USB drive and I am getting 25-35MB/s speed which translates to approx. 300mbps connection speed not bad I would say at -70dBm signal strength. 3. Also increased my ISP speed to 40mbps and you can see in the pic that even with this coverage I am getting a constant 40mbps speed. I am using a 1 to 1 connection with constant speed not like Jio where the speed varies with network load.
