New 802.11ac Wi-Fi standardThe ASUS PCE-AC56 Network Adapter features a 5th generation Broadcom chip that supports 802.11ac Wi-Fi and delivers up to 3 times the performance of 802.11n. It has two frequency bands, one at 2.4 GHz and the other at 5 GHz. Also, the PCE-AC56 remains compatible with previous Wi-Fi standards and can work well with existing devices. The high-speed design of the PCE-AC56 improves the Wi-Fi signal by 150% compared to an equivalent generic product. This provides full coverage and avoids dead zones so that data flow is not interrupted. |
Expand and strengthen your wireless connection!ASUS AiRadar technology amplifies the wireless signal with precision to extend the coverage of your wireless network and improve its speed and stability.

Excellent product!
Very powerful card! Very easy and fast to install, the wifi speed with the old card was not more than 18Mega and now I'm around 120/140mega.... So no regrets!
I recommend it with my eyes closed!Review automatically translated -

Very good Wifi card
For the price, this wifi card does its job perfectly. Be careful not to install the Asus utility to make the card work, but only the Asus drivers. Indeed, the asus utility creates a conflict with windows, leading to random disconnections.
Otherwise, everything is OK! 9/10Review automatically translated -

Highest throughput
This is the second one I've ordered and frankly the 5GB speeds are great.
I've been using it for a while now, but it's not a problem. Windows 10 recognises the card immediatelyReview automatically translated -

Very good value for money
The Asus quality is once again there. The remote antenna is an appreciable plus, allowing to optimize the reception of the Wifi signal. Reception is excellent.
Installation under Windows 10 completed in 5 minutes.Review automatically translated -

Big disappointment
Once installed, the card is immediately recognized by Windows. However the connection is not stable and disconnects after a few seconds. Same result when installing the Asus drivers which date from 2015. The only solution found was to install an older version but which limits the speed to 30 mbits instead of the 800 announced.

300 Mb/ss reception from a fibre box (930 Mb/s)
Does the job very well.
From a Fibre box that receives 930 Mb/s and sends back 5Ghz Wifi (with 80MHz bandwidth), I get an incoming rate of 300 Mb/s to the PC on which I have installed the card.
I admit that the remote antennas are probably important. It allows to better position the reception and to separate it from all the electronic elements which are in the PC.
The card is plug and play under Win10 (I confirm), but I downloaded and installed the official drivers from the ASUS website.Review automatically translated
