Tired of trying various wi-fi USB dongles that has dependency on USB 3.0 for better throughput, I first started looking for the possibility of adding a USB 3.0 hub in my old refurbished desktop. I ran into this product in Amazon, and although Bluetooth was not my main purpose, I wanted to take a stab at this.

First of all, product arrived way much quicker than they originally said, and secondly, it was the easiest thing to install. I was concerned about the fact the product description did not show a smaller mounting bracket, yet I wanted to try thinking that I will run to a local store if it is not there. It was there, and they also added a magnetic screw driver as that additional little bonus.

After installation of the product as well as the driver, it all worked like a charm. I wish the UI of the Wi-Fi driver installation was a little more intuitive with a message that installation successful or completed etc. I had to refer to the manual to realize just a spinning icon is all what it takes for the Wi-Fi driver to complete installation. Considering the value I have finally, that little shortcoming can certainly be excused.

As far as the final output, refer to the image with results from May 9th onwards. I wanted to purposefully try multiple times over the course of last couple of days, since I used to have Wi-Fi disconnected with my old USB. I live in Dallas with a AT&T Fiber 1 GBPS connection. My modem is only 802.11 ac, and not AX. Obviously I didn't expect any better than 1 gbps; 200 or 300 mbps download / upload may appear to be disappointing, but not at all, considering that I am getting the highest throughput (on a wireless device) now only on my oldest device. Also, it makes me look forward to the point when I will upgrade my router also to Wi-Fi 6. I don't have HUGE expectations, but even if exceeds 1 GBPS at that point, this is all worth it.

Bluetooth came in as a bonus, and when I connected one of my old bluetooth headsets, it worked totally fine, but when I walked 5-6 meters away from desktop, I could hear some disturbance. Most likely because the headset doesn't support Bluetooth 5.0, and at this time I am least worried about this.

The experience of researching (2-3 hours) and doing something (flat 15 minutes) on my own for the first time with regard to hardware assembly is priceless too!!

Worked great and easy to install, I dual boot catchyos and windows. It was plug and play for linux, but for the windows I had to find the drivers dont use the ones from the paper the website is hard to use and unreliable the wifi card uses intel so you can just use intel wifi and Bluetooth drivers. The wifi is pretty good I use if for games and it workes good, I download things noticeably faster now.

Bought a use wifi card. Would not work for one gig. This works great for one gig. The computer guy I had install said it was easy to install. The speeds are great and the reliability is great. Mom doesn't isn't into gaming but word works fine.

This has overall been a great purchase. Low price, improvement in wifi speeds and quality. I use steam streaming over ethernet with my PC, but I tested it with wifi in my home. My PC was placed in a corner of the basement with bookshelves surrounding it were placed horizontally far from the TV (2nd floor) and router (3rd floor). Very few packets were dropped and the stream maintained sync and playability. I stacked the odds against it and performed well enough. I put it in a more favorable position without blocking the signal beyond still being in the basement and it performing pretty closely to ethernet. Only when the system was struggling in the morn demanding games did any hiccups appears and even then it was still better performance than when I had it blocked off.

I had to knock off a star because the Bluetooth isn't that great despite the wifi being wonderful. It's good enough to quickly sync any devices, but in favorable and non-favorable conditions it performed poorly with any sustained usage. Bluetooth controllers inputs would be lost, Bluetooth adhoc networks for using a phone as a modem was spotty and had a very noticeable difference in quality when compared to usb tethering with the same phone and service in the same exact location.

Those are 3-8 foot use case tests, it got worse with bluetooth headphones with a 20 foot distance test. It performed well enough when within a few feet, but again you'd lose sound for half of a second at times. Like every few minutes and sometimes multiple times within a minute.

At least it's small and fits into the case pretty easy. I bought it for use in my PC as a wifi extender/second wifi network since it already has a direct connection to the router via ethernet. It makes connecting other wifi only devices pretty easy.

This review is for the EDUP PCIe WiFi 6 Card Bluetooth 5.0 AX 3000 Mbps AX200 Dual Band 5.GHz/2.4GHz PCI-E Wireless WiFi Network Adapter Card for Desktop Windows 10 64-bit.

I was very skeptical at first. The package came with a nice brown box with a small driver CD, a tiny screw driver, 2 screws, and a low profile bracket. My old Dell PC had a 300 Mbps Wireless N with only 2.4Ghz band. My router is a TM-AC1900 with dual band 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, and my Internet is 240Mbps down and 10Mbps up. My PCI wireless N max download speed was 50-60Mbps. I wanted a faster AX wifi adapter card to max out my Internet speed at 240Mbps. So I searched on Amazon, and this one is lowest price with a 4.4/5 stars and more than 1,000 reviews. I want to try it knowing Amazon would let me return it if things don't work. The AX3000 speed is so tempting.

The small CD driver did not work on my PC's optical drive, luckily, they also provided a small manual that tells you to go to their website to download the drivers.

My Windows 10 pro PC picked up the wireless AX card without any driver but the Bluetooth did not work. I went to their website and downloaded the driver for the Bluetooth and it works instantly.

My Internet speed went from 60Mbps to max out my Internet speed at 240Mbps. The Bluetooth connects easily to my Bluetooth headsets and my Bluetooth speakers without any issues. It's nice to max out my Internet speed, what I pay for.

I bought this for my sons desktop computer which was using an external wireless bridge which wasn't giving great performance. The AP he is connecting to is an Ubiquiti AP a couple of rooms over on the same floor.

Installing the card only took a few minutes

Helpful hint: Go to Intel's website and download the drivers for the AX200 wireless chipset BEFORE installing, especially if installing this required disconnecting your current network. DON'T go to the venders site for drivers or use the Windows default drivers.

It took about 30 seconds to install in his PC's PCIE 1x slot and connect the jumper from the card to a USB header on the motherboard (only required for bluetooth). After installation connected the provided antennas to the card. Once the computer was booted I installed the latest drivers from Intels site for both wireless and bluetooth and it started working. Once I had connected to my home network I checked the wireless connection speed by running "netsh wlan show interfaces" and it showed 866Mbs which is the max for a 2x2 wireless card connecting to a 2x2 802.11ac AP . A quick speed test using the xfinity speedtest site (my Internet provider) showed something like 125Mbs which considering this was wireless is very very respectable.

Overall this is a great product, performs as expected and requires the bare minimum level of computer knowledge to install.

Bluetooth functionality is woefully inconsistent. It works every few days; most of the time it has an error that says "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)"

Drivers didn't fix the issue. Don't be cheap- just buy a better card from a reputable source.

It works, and I’ve used for years but the 2 wifi extenders that screw onto the outside broke. I wasn’t especially harsh with them but the hinges wore out and the tips broke so I no longer use them. I am wondering if I can replace them but there’s no way to get product support. I would prefer to not have to buy a whole new card to fix this issue. If I do it won’t be from this brand.

Funcionando perfectamente. Todo perfecto: fácil de instalar y la wifi/bluetooth como un cañón.

Un buen opción sería añadir un porta entenas exterior, es verdad que se anuncia sin ello.

I actually didn't know what to expect since I needed to get a WIFI adapter card into an old 2015 Dell OptiPlex 3020 MiniTower desktop computer that I inherited. The computer has a LAN port but I couldn't drag a CAT6e cable from my office downstairs to upstairs without exposing the network cable. So, I got this WIFI6 network adapter. It's frickin awesome to say the least! I tested this as soon as I got connection to my ASUS RT-AC86u wireless router. My router is only an 802.11ac router, but the Intel AX200 card that's in the EDUP PCIe WIFI6 Card works and has the speed I need on my wireless network to the Internet. The speed is tested through SpeedTest.net and I wanted to see 300+Mbps download speed (my max speed from Shaw's Internet 300) and I got that no problem. I use the 5GHz speed bandwidth only.

Here's the deal: Initially, I had connected the PCIe WIFI network card to the PCI-ex16 slot (long PCIe slot). Windows 10 Pro was able to recognize the card but the it detected it had a conflict even after I downloaded the Intel drivers for it. After several tries to let Windows diagnose the issue unsuccessfully, I move the WIFI network adapter card to one of the PCI-ex1 slots (really short PCIe slot). Voila! The card is recognized in Windows 10 and can see all the wireless networks around! I think the seller's description says "This WiFi device not work with the motherboard of Lenovo and Dell". It worked for the Dell OptiPlex motherboard. It should work with all existing desktop MOBO's that has at least one free PCI-ex1 slot and the downloaded drivers from Intel directly. Windows 10 and Intel will recognize and report the hardware as Intel AX200. This upgrade is NICE!

The Bluetooth 5 for the AX200 chip does work! The USB Bluetooth cable is supplied and has a 4-pin header plug on one end and a 9=pin header plug on the other end. So, here's the deal with plugging this USB cable in. The 4-pin header is a no-brainer. You can only plug this onto the end of the adapter card one way. Here's the other issue where numerous people have said that on the Dell or Lenovo motherboards or even other motherboards, when you plug into the internal 9-pin header (this also goes in one way since the 9th pin hole on one end is blocked and it matches up with the missing pin for the internal USB header on the MOBO), the Bluetooth will not be recognized by Windows no matter what you do. Others have tried unplugging the other internal USB header that connects to the front panel of the computer. That works - HOWEVER, now when you boot your computer, your get a stoppage in the boot saying the front panel USB has been disconnected! That's not a fix. Took me quite some time looking at the USB port wiring layout, but I finally figured it out and it worked. Take a good look at the 9-pin header plug. It will have the letters "USB" labelled. That is the top. If all wires are attached the top row, move then down to the bottom row. You can remove all the wires from the plastic harness by using a pin and lift each plastic slit while slightly applying pull on all wires at the same time. Don't pry out the plastic slits, just lift them up so you can slide all the terminals out. Once you have them all out, rotate each wire 180 degrees so that the terminals will have the barbs turn down. This is to prevent the terminals from sliding out when you put them into the bottom row. The bottom row is where you'll have 5 pin holes instead of 4 (if you look from the header plug end). The wiring should be exactly the same color pattern or location as it did before except it is now moved to the bottom row with the letters "USB" printed at the top. So, from left to right. you'll have:

1) Empty pin hole

2) Black

3) Green

4) White

5) Red

Or if you look from Right to Left or if your "USB" is facing down

1) Red

2) White

3) Green

4) Black

5) Empty pin hole

(See pictures 11 and 12)

----------------------------

I did some tests regarding large and small files transfers on my own home network. The results are really good even using the 802.11ac rather than with WIFI6. My tests are with photo files (around 1-4MB) for a chunk of 1GB is around 45 seconds and Windows throughput is around 19MB/s. Large single file using Windows 10 Media Creation ISO (4.5GB) is around 43MB/s. Just as a comparison test, I plugged a CAT5e and a CAT6e cable to test and for the 1GB multi-file transfer is around 45MB/s and for the ISO 4.5GB, the transfer speed is 111MB/s! The speed for file transferring for 802.11ac is actually not bad at all! The Internet speed I got on the main floor with one wall is a straight pass of 329Mbps and on upstairs with several walls and a door, the download speed is still respectable at 253Mbps.

I'm super stoked since now I don't have to purchase one of those 9-pin to USB Type A male cable and wire it from internal to external to a USB port.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. The quality and the performance is superb! You can't go wrong with this network card.

Tenia mis dudas, ya que en algunas páginas y comentarios se dice que este chip (intel AX200) no es compatible con tarjetas madre AMD, pero me funcionó sin problemas, después de instalar, windows reconoció inmediatamente la tarjeta, no tuve que instalar drivers. Si tu modem tiene wi-fi de 5 Ghz este tipo de tarjeta mejora mucho la velocidad de navegación, en varias prueba que hice me dió la misma velocidad que si estuviera conectado con cable de red.

Facile da montare, viene riconosciuta subito da windows 10 senza dover installare dei driver specifici.

Ha anche un ottima ricezione del segnale wifi e il bluetooth è perfetto.

Einbau hat problemlos funktioniert, alles Nötige war dabei - auch eine kleinere Blende für den Einschub bei einem Small PC.

Nach Einbau hat WLAN und Bluetooth sofort funktioniert, ich musste gar keine Treiber installieren oder runterladen. Alternativ lag aber auch noch eine Treiber CD bei.
