This card made it easy to upgrade my PC to match my new WiFi 7 router. It uses a 9-pin USB header on your motherboard for Bluetooth, but the same is true of virtually all other combo WiFi/BT PCIe cards, as well. It's also worth noting that your computer must be running Windows 11 if you want to connect to any 6GHz networks. In Windows 10, the card is still functional, but only at 2.4 and 5GHz - a limitation of the OS and not this adapter's fault.I had no trouble installing the card and the official BE200 driver, and their performance lives up to my expectations. Ping times are nearly the same as a wired connection, and throughput is excellent in the uncrowded 6GHz frequency bands. Bluetooth connects easily with my wireless headphones and shows excellent range. Overall, a high-quality and worthwhile upgrade for those who demand the best WiFi and BT connectivity.

Small network card, perfect for low-profile mini-towers that want Wi-Fi 7 but also external antennas. laptop mini-PCIe slot and M.2 Type E+A cards are out there, but those cards make you connect those tniy antenna leads, and then find some place to run the primary and secondary antennas outside the case.This was a simple Wi-Fi 7 + Bluetooth 5.4 upgrade. It replaced my old 802.11ac card (with no blue-tooth).Connects to Xfinity XB8 running Wi-Fi 6A on 6GHz with 160MHz octa-channels.Was also able to connect to my laptop's Wi-Fi 7 (same Intel BE200 chip as this card uses).I used some longer antenna arms that I had on my old ASUS Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) card, though it doesn't seem to change reception much from the included arms. Both seem more than capable for 2.4 GHz (12.5 cm), 5 GHz (6 cm) and 6 GHz (5 cm) frequencies. Any antenna 10 to 12 cm should get you great reception from anywhere.Intel's recent Wi-Fi driver pack will recognize this card instantly in Windows 10 or 11. You can even download it and install it ahead of time. ;)Bluetooth works great with some noise-cancelling/limiting Sig Sauer / Axil wireless ear buds. Also worked well with my XBOX One controller while playing on Steam.My Xfinity 800 Mbps cable connection regularly runs 750 to 980 Mbps on my laptop's Wi-Fi 7 card, and almost 1000 Mbps connected through a 2.5GBaseT ethernet port and Cat8 cable to the modem. This card shows the same performance... very solid, as you'd expect with Intel chips.Highly recommend.Finally a wireless connection as fast or faster than Gigabit Ethernet. Perfect upgrade for my old HP Slimline S5-1214 mini-tower PC. maxing out the DDR3 ram, adding a Thunderbolt 3 card, and converting to GPT formatted SSD brought this old tower back to life. A 10GBase-T card may be next.

As a WiFi card this is excellent. However, the Bluetooth functionality requires connection to a USB connector on the motherboard IN ADDITION TO the PCIe card slot. This must be a 9-pin USB connector (10 pin with one pin blocked). The kit includes the necessary cable. However, if your motherboard does not have this connector, or it is not available (e.g. being used by another USB connection), then the Bluetooth functionality of this card will not work. Seems a bit daft, but it's the way it is.

I can't say whether or not this products works. I currently have an AMD motherboard and did everything correctly installing. The first issue you'll see that your computer wont even boot when the WiFi card is installed in the PCI slot. The second problem is you need a space USB connector on your motherboard in order for the Bluetooth to even work. I then realized the instruction on the product state INTEL. This should be made more clear in the description of the product.I wish I would have looked closer at reviews before I bought it.

The bluetooth works but the wifi drivers don't work in Australia. Won't even connect to wifi 6 router.

I bought this card because I wanted Bluetooth without using USB. I don't see any mention of Bluetooth for this PCIe card, but when you install it, you are required to connect the device to an internal USB connection. That completely defeats my requirement.
