" ... A one armed chimpanzee could be trained to install this wifi card into any desktop computer. ... It's a no-brainer @ $50 if your wifi router has Wi-Fi ac or ax. ... "
" ... Install was very easy, unfortunately Bluetooth functionality requires a USB header on the motherboard which is annoying. ... 4/5 for needing USB header for Bluetooth ... "
" ... I've been using this wifi adapter for several weeks at this point and have had no issues. ... "
" ... I got online with tp link and was helped by Bryant Chacon. ... The WiFi pc TP link TX 3000e works well and has pretty fast connection speed. ... "
" ... I highly recommend internal WiFi adapters rather than those USB piles of junk. ... "
" ... My ISP just upgraded me to a much higher speed, fiber internet modem, so I needed to upgrade the wifi card in my PC to make the most of it. ... I'm getting about 4 times faster internet speeds than I was with the old card after the modem upgrade and I'm seeing wifi speeds I should be seeing from the modem. ... "

" ... It was really good, I was getting higher speeds with WiFi 6 ... "
" ... My router is downstairs in my living room whereas my desktop is upstairs. ... my connection is now more stable and my wifi speeds have increased from about 20 Mbps to 180 Mbps over the 5G connection (I'm paying for 200 Mbps, but even a wired connection usually doesn't reach 200). ... "
" ... I have only had it installed for 3 hours, but so far it has fixed my issue of intermittent internet disconnects that I have been dealing with with the Netgear AC7000 Nighthawk (even after re-installing drivers). ... Got a 100 Mbps increase in download speeds and have not been disconnected once. ... "
" ... I've had AC wifi for a few years now and just upgraded my Comcast gateway to the new 802.11AX (WiFi 6) and my signal has always been pretty weak across the house. ... 40Mbps on a good day with a 300Mbps connection. ... I knew AX had better range and a broader spectrum as well as 2.4 which has better range than 5Ghz. ... First speed test 140Mbps and full upload on 5Ghz. ... Mind you, the wireless gateway is probably 120' away and there's probably 5-6 walls in between as well as outside as the house is sort of L shaped and it is a BIG ranch home. ... I am a fan of wifi AX, that is for sure. ... "
" ... A must-have if you have a wifi 6 router. ... "
" ... I then bought the tp-link AC1200 and installed it and it worked perfectly first restart. ... "
" ... Excellent connection, getting full bars and my router is on the other side of the house in the basement. ... "
" ... Tried a few different options to increase the speed on the desktop upstairs but nothing worked well. ... Tried the TP-Link AX3000 and this definitely did the trick! ... "
