    Excellent item, better than expected
    5 out of 5 stars
    Excellent item, better than expected
    This solved my wifi connection issues immediately. Didn't need to install the vendor's driver, Windows 10 automatically installed everything behind the scenes. in fact I powered PC off, installed card, powered PC back on and straight away it notified me that wifi access points had been seen. The external antenna is a real bonus, especially with the magnetic base. Not sure why this isn't highlighted on Amazon's website as it's a definite selling point, especially if your PC is tucked away against a wall like mine. Performance of loading web pages, YouTube videos etc.. is the same as one of my other PCs that's connected to the ADSL router via ethernet. I've marked 'ease of installation' as 3 stars as there was no explanation about why it's necessary to connect this item to an internal USB socket. However, i did do this using the cable provided but I've got no idea what it does. I've not scored Bluetooth connectivity as I've got no reason to try it, but I assume it works fine as a new Bluetooth network adaptor icon has appeared in network settings. My only other comment is that unlike traditional wifi network adaptors, this card actually has a laptop format wifi adaptor inserted into an onboard interface (i'm guessing it's PCI Mini Express). I doubt this is an issue as it's the Intel AC 9260 chipset as used in top of the range laptops, so that's fine for me.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 May 2021
    I was slightly sceptical about the possible gains from fitting this wireless Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Gigabyte PCIe expansion card in my Windows 10 PC, but I'm really impressed! It's an easy install using a spare PCIE slot and a spare USB 2.0 connector on the motherboard.

    Compared to the hi end Wi-Fi dongle I had in a USB 3.0 slot I get great gains from the PCIe card in Wi-Fi download speed, the Ping is lower and the upload speed has improved too using the supplied antenna. The online speed tests show flat continuous lines rather than random up and down spikes, showing my connection was erratic using the Wi-Fi dongle. I can now enjoy online gaming much more thanks to fast Ping time and constant Wi-Fi speed.

    The Bluetooth connection is now more stable too using the PCIe card and connects to my devices easily and is not at all troublesome as using a USB Bluetooth dongle. I can only highly recommend this Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Gigabyte PCIe expansion card as it exceeded all my expectations and can't fault it, plus I have a couple of USB slots back not needing the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth dongles!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 February 2020
    The very first thing you need to know if you are considering this card is that it is for Windows 10 (64bit) only, there are no drivers available for any other version of Windows.

    As many have said this card is a laptop module on a PCI-e card, it sounds a bit dodgy but it works really well. I bought it to replace an old card that never really had W10 support and certainly didn't have Bluetooth, however the old card maxed out by BT internet connection so i wasn't expecting any further improvements in speed with this card.

    As expected my internet connection remained the same (75/19 on either band) simply because it couldn't go any faster anyway, the link speed when connected to 5GHz flickers between 866.7Mbps and 780Mbps and on 2.4GHz the link speed is 144.4Mbps. I have never seen anything like 1733Mbps but this is because the BT Smart Hub doesn't support 160MHz channels on 5GHz. My router is in the room next to where the PC is located so all this is though a brick wall.

    Bluetooth 5 is included providing you have a free motherboard header to connect to (cable included) and this works great, much better than the USB adapter i was using, this card provides better range and a much more robust signal.

    The included magnetic aerial means the signal is no longer fighting its way though the case of your PC and the cable is long enough to sit on top of just about all PC cases I'd imagine.

    Although this card is plug and play i would strongly recommend you download the latest AC9260 drivers from Intel, i found my internet connection a lot smoother after installing the latest versions, speed tests were jumping around quite a lot but all this stopped once the intel drivers were in place.

    Really nice, works right off really well for my rig buying two more for other machines. The blue tooth and wifi were easy installs bit slow but worked first time, delivery was also a bit slow but the main thing for me is it works well and installed easily.
    Some tips; the blue tooth needs a wire (supplied) it is a usb power lead ( rectangle block with 9 holes in two rows, four on top, five in the bottom obviously) so you need to check your mother board has the male fitting for this, (5+4 prongs) it most likely will have and if not I believe its only needed for the Blue tooth.
    Performance is great, I did speedtest and it was exactly what I got from other wifi and cabled pcs.

    I like the fact that it's reasonably priced for a quality bit of kit.

    I like that it runs a stable WiFi connection as long as you have a good signal from your Hub/Router. You can't blame the adapters if your router is hidden behind your TV or behind a thick brick wall.

    Bluetooth is also handy for those who need it. Just a shame it needs a spare USB port on the motherboard which isn't always the case on small mATX boards.

    This could easily be 5 stars. Why only 4?

    Well:
    1) For such a small card, Gigabyte missed a trick by not making the card suitable for use in low profile cases. Duh! No brainer. Sort it out Gigabyte PLEEEEEASE.

    2) It would be brilliant if they could figure out how to make everything work through the PCIe slot alone without needing the USB cable as not all boards have a spare header. Or if it must use a USB header, then a passthrough header on the card would be brill for motherboards that only have one header and it's in use for the front USB ports.

    Other than that, if you need to add/replace the dodgy WiFi in your PC and the card will fit your case, go for it. You won't regret it.

    TL:DR Very happy with purchase, no issues with setup, took a few mins and seen massive gains in signal strength and getting the speeds I'm paying for with Virgin Media

    So brought this wifi card as my old one was old and lacking in picking up a decent wifi signal (I live in a "standard" bricked terraced house, in a big city, etc) My Virgin Router is in the kitchen and PC is in my room (also I'm not able to run an ethernet wire between the two) so brought this one, even after looking at the slighty cheaper products on Amazon.

    Well from a 2.5 - 8mb/s speed on my old wifi card to a 50 - 90mb/s with this one (again this is what I got) all I can say is I am very happy with this product. Though I feel the price could come down just a little bit.

    I had no issues with setting up the the wireless card. just put it in my spare PCIe slot, attached the usb header (provided) from on the wireless card to a spare header on my mobo for the bluetooth, attached the antenna wires to the card and mounted the magnetic base ontop of my PC. installed the drivers on the disc, and I was set.

    FYI I am on Windows 10, had no issues with any of the WIFI or BT drivers

    Reviewed in Germany on 6 August 2022
    Die W-Lan-Karte haben wir als Ersatz für einen W-Lan-Stick benötigt.

    Eines Vorweg:
    Peripherie bestand vor dem Einbau der Karte aus einem PC mit Windows 10, einem Fritz W-Lan-Stick und einem Fritz-W-Lan-Router.

    Grund des Einbaus:
    In der Mesh-Übersicht des Routers ist mir aufgefallen, dass der PC meiner Frau eine Übertragungsrate von 72Mbit/s und mein PC, sowie unsere Handys, eine Übertragungsrate von 144Mbit/s erreichen. Klar sollte man denken das bei einer 5000er Leitung mit maximal 6,3Mbit/s das vollkommen ausreicht. Jedoch hatte sie, da das Signal durch die Wand musste, immer wieder Schwankungen beim zocken und daher Lags. Nach vielem herumbrobieren und recherchieren kam ich dann auf verschiedene Faktoren.

    1. 2,4Ghz oder 5Ghz?
    -> 2,4Ghz hat eine größere Reichweite, ist aber auch anfälliger auf Störungen, da es am meisten benutzt wird. Zudem ist die Übertragungsrate geringer.
    -> 5Ghz hat eine kürzere Reichweite, ist aufgrund der „seltenen Benutzung“ aber stabiler und hat eine höhere Übertragungsrate.

    Bedeutet: Durch die Entfernung wird das Signal noch schwächer bei 5Ghz und bei 2,4Ghz bleibt die Übertragungsrate geringer, sowie für Störungen anfälliger.

    2. Was mich dann stutzig machte war folgende Angabe: 1x1 bei dem PC meiner Frau und 2x2 bei meinem PC, sowie bei den Handys. Dies ist die Angabe für die Antennen und Empfänger. Sie hatte, im Gegensatz zum Rest durch den W-Lan-Stick nur 1 Antenne zum Senden und 1 Antenne zum Empfangen! Dies bedeutet, das der Datendurchsatz nur halb so hoch war wie bei mir! Ich habe dann weiter recherchiert ob es W-Lan-Sticks mit 2x2 Antennen gibt, die Suche ergab aber leider nicht wirklich etwas zufriedenstellendes für meine Ansprüche.

    Mit dieser Karte haben wir also schließlich unsere Probleme beheben können. Sie hat nun ebenfalls eine Übertragungsrate von 144Mbit/s und ein stabileres Signal.

    Das die W-Lan-Sticks absichtlich schlechte Chips verbaut haben sollen kann ich ehrlich gesagt nicht nachvollziehen, die kleinen USB-W-Lan-Sticks haben halt leider nur einen Sender und Empfänger und dadurch geht eben auch die Übertragungsrate runter.

    Wer solche Probleme aus der Welt schaffen möchte, dem kann ich diese Karte wirklich nur sehr ans Herz legen! Sie ist sehr platzsparend, hat eine sehr starke Sendeleistung und ist Qualitativ einfach nur Top! Der Preis ist somit auch mehr als super! 👍🏻

    Einzigstes Manko: Die Kabel zur Antenne sind wirklich extrem kurz, da könnte man noch etwas nachbessern. Schließlich hat nicht jeder Platz auf seinen Tisch für einen PC. ;)

    Gran tarjeta pci, por puerto pci x1, comprimida en un espacio reducido, con el extra de bluetooth que se conecta por usb interno a la placa.

    La calidad es excelente ya que combinándola con un router neutro de calidad se puede llegar a aprovechar casi la totalidad de la capacidad contratada (usando la banda de 5Ghz), dándome resultados de hasta un 70-80%, increíble para ser wifi, y todo sin ser wifi 6 (es una wifi 5, ya que tiene unos años), lo que le da un desempeño espectacular que no tiene nada que envidiar a las tarjetas pci más modernas, y más por el precio, ya que suele rondar los 30-35 euros aquí, en amazon.

    El detalle de la antena externa es un gusto, con un cable lo suficientemente largo como para colocarlo en una estantería cercana (mejorando la posición a gusto).

    Lo único "raro" que le puedo poner es que en Ubuntu 20.04 me está dando problemas de compatibilidad, pero que lo más probable es que sea por falla vía software que por la tarjeta y/o antena, así que lo pongo por si alguien tiene el mismo problema, pero en windows va impecable.
