Product Description

Product Description

EW-7612PIn is a wireless PCI Express adapter that provides a simple and easy way to add or upgrade wireless connectivity to your desktop. This wireless PCI Express adapter supports higher data rates up to 300Mpbs when connected to a wireless 802.11n device. You can also connect to any public wireless hotspot for Internet access to retrieve email, surf web sites or use instant messaging. EW-7612PIn gives you the freedom to join the network.

Complies with wireless 802.11b/g/n standards with data rates up to 300Mbps
With the latest wireless 802.11n technology, EW-7612PIn can increase coverage up to 4 times more and reduce "dead spots" within the wireless range. The transmission data rate can reach up to 300Mbps when connected to wireless 802.11n devices, making signals travel farther and wireless connections guaranteed when compared to a standard wireless 802.11b/g network.

First-class Reliability
The EW-7612PIn’s exceptional chipset offers increased bandwidth and more functionality than other standard PCI network adapters. The adapter is specifically designed to carry the full bandwidth capacity of the PCI Express bus of 2.5Gpbs, thus eliminating collisions and latencies that exist with current 32- and 64-bit PCI bus architectures.

Wireless Security
EW-7612PIn supports 64-/128-bit WEP data encryption that protects your wireless network from eavesdropping. It also supports WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) features that combine IEEE 802.1x and TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) technologies. Furthermore, this adapter supports WPA2 and WPS functions, with WPA2 providing a stronger encryption mechanism through AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), which is a requirement for some corporate and government users. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easy and secure establishment of a wireless network. EW-7612PIn supports software with WPS-compatible configurations. When both ends of the wireless connection use wireless solutions with WPS, it automatically configures the wireless network with robust WPA data encryption and authentication.

Supports multi-language EZmax setup wizard
The included 16-language EZmax setup wizard and friendly UI will walk you through configuring EW-7612PIn to your wireless network.

* The EZMax Setup CD Wizard only supports Edimax wireless Series

Ordered through Amazon and received quickly. Put into my PC straight away. I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and it picked it up straight away. Installed the drivers and its working great. Getting excellent signal strength, maximum bars on 802.11g. My PC is under a desk against a solid brick wall at the back of the house. My wireless router is in my lounge behind my TV at the front of the house. I was considering buying a extendable antenna but no need for it. Recommended.

I bought this to replace TP-Link TL-WN851N Wireless N PCI Adapter, which I had problems with.

I'm very happy with it. My range is significantly improved over my old card, the drivers seem to be much better too (I can actually connect to an 802.11n network at wireless N speeds now!), and the latency has dropped a lot as well, making it a much better wifi card to use for gaming online.

I've seen a few reviews below criticising the card for not delivering the speeds they were hoping for. Firstly, it is a little cheeky to not list the Tx speed as 150mbps. But in fairness, you'll never actually achieve 300mbps coming in. With any connection, quite a lot of the bandwidth goes into the overheads needed to send data. Even a cabled ethernet connection, running at 100mbps, will in reality only deliver about 80mbps actual transfer speeds because the remaining 20mbps is required to make the connection work. There are similar overheads involved in wireless transfer rates too. Now throw in potential interferences (other wifi networks, walls, electrical equipment etc.) and you begin to realise that speeds will tend to diminish in normal circumstances.

Wireless-G claims to get 54mbps, but I've never seen any card of mine get above 20mbps. Similarly, this card has given me an output of 70mbps, which I think is pretty good.

Overall, I think this is a solid purchase, and I think some of the negativity in other reviews owes as much to false expectations as anything. If you really need super fast speeds, try using 1Gbps ethernet or maybe the plug-in ethernet options out there.
