Effective
Bought it in 2021 to add to my fixed PC configuration, since then I've had wifi which works perfectly, the support with the antennae is magnetised so you can place it on the PC case, which is very practical.

CLEAR
Good for the delivery, fast and compliant.
Good quality equipment with accessories (triple antenna, cables of comfortable length, etc.)
Easy installation with the CD included in the kit
The downside is that the ASUS website provides a problematic update that displays a window that loops as soon as you close it. Need to reinstall the CD provided and not try to update from the ASUS site.Review automatically translated -

Card out of order after just over a year of use
I was certainly unlucky, my card broke after just over a year of use. Obviously I don't give it a good grade because I think that 80€/year to have WIFI on a PC is a bit expensive, but apart from that, when the card was working, its installation was simple, I never had any problem of untimely disconnections, just a few times of loss of connection profiles, obliging me to enter the wifi key again. I've never had a problem with the speed either. It could have been perfect if the card had lasted a bit longer :'(

Very good investment
I was having trouble maintaining a good connection in my new house, simple set up, fairly aesthetically pleasing and unobtrusive antenna. It works perfectly for me ?

Very good reception
Very good reception, no loss, I have fibre optic in a public building and I download easily at 10 Mb/s. Easy to use and install.

Poor Linux support
The card does not support AC wifi on channels above 40 under Linux. For a card at this price, to end up with a lower throughput than the wifi card in my 3~4 year old laptop is a shame.
I'm fed up with manufacturers who botch the Linux drivers, this is the second card I've bought hoping to benefit from the wifi of my Freebox Delta S and I find myself once again limited by their neglicence: 600/300mbps (down/up) on my laptop, 300/70mbps on my tower, with 3 antennas placed on the desk 5m from the box.
For my part, it will be a referral.Review automatically translated -

Great
I ordered this product because I was worried about installing the cable at home, which in theory was not possible unless you drilled in every direction (in the end I didn't, but hey...). I've installed the card, and it works perfectly! No loss, excellent connection. The only thing is the driver which is not perfect but at least I can go on the internet. I bought it with confidence :)

Not bad, small reservation.
Having changed my ADSL box for a fibre offer, the installation does not allow me to have a wire connection at the moment. I therefore opted for this card with very good reviews.
I almost gave it a bad mark, but in the end it didn't. I'll explain:
- I've been using this card for a while now and it's a great product.
- I've been using this card for a while now and it's a great product.
- I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure I'll ever be able to use it again. I went from a real ADSL speed of 15Mbit/s to a theoretical fibre speed of 1000Mbit/s. However, the speed with the wifi card did not exceed 50mbit/s with interruptions. Disappointing. I finally found the solution: the antennas connected to the card were probably not picking up the wifi, because on the mobile antenna provided, the connection is close to 250mbit/s and stable now. A small negative point, the length of the wire for the mobile antenna could be extended by 50cm easily, it's a bit tight to put it where you want. Another negative point, 250mbit/s is not 1000mbit/s either...
Nevertheless it does the job, much more appreciable speed now. Good investment, don't hesitate.Review automatically translated -

Impressive
+ : Speed almost equivalent to my wired connection (14 Mb/s) through 2 load-bearing walls. Compared to other G or n standard USB cards / plugs, finally possible to watch videos from the internal server in HD quality and flac sound without interruption: Magic. Ridiculous latency of less than 30ms. Perfect installation on Windows 10.

Satisfied
I bought this card to replace a Gigabyte GC-WB1733D-I which gave up after 3 and a half years probably due to overheating. Satisfied for the moment with this new card, after a few minutes to adjust the antennas, the signal is perfect, no packet lost and the maximum speed my rooter can offer (80-90MB/s). I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure how to get it to work. I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure how to get it to work, but I'm not sure how to get it to work. I'm not sure what the solution is, but I'll see what happens in the long run.

excellent
Very easy to install, gives very good results. I have a max throughput of +60Mb/s through a concrete wall.
The only downside is the software that triggers an error message every time W10 starts up ("is not an integer value"), but this does not affect the functionality of the product. The manufacturer doesn't seem to be willing to fix it, so that's one less star on the rating ^^Review automatically translated -

Perfect
I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to get the driver from the Asus website for Windows 10 (easy and very explicit). The whole thing works like a wired connection, nothing to complain about, perfect.

5ghz wifi network card
Configuration done without too many problems. The driver and all the dependent packages have to be obtained under Linux, but this is not insurmountable.
For my part a good product.Review automatically translated -

Nothing to report, as described.
The installation is simple and fast. The PC recognises the card easily, a CD with the drivers is supplied to avoid any installation problems.

Efficient and easy to install
The reception speed is as good as a wired connection.
The installation is immediate on a new PC in W10, with the CD delivered in the pack.
The card was installed by my 14 year old son for gaming use without any problems

Do the job!
I ordered this component in order to increase my internet speed (I had a basic wifi key). I am very surprised by the speed gain, I go from a 300ms ping to 30ms! It's mainly used for online gaming. I can recommend this component without any hesitation, and it's great design and fits perfectly in my tower under my graphics card.

Doesn't fit my use
This card is very powerful ... only in reception.
I was a bit fooled, because I need my PC to kick ass on upload too.
My Wi-Fi (Freebox) is set to 5Ghz with a bandwidth of 80Mhz, ("AC" Wi-Fi).
When I do a local data rate test, it's a real pain in the ass, and the data rates I get exceed my expectations.
My problem is that I use a Steamlink box to stream games on my TV (my PC, box and TV are in the same room), and when the network is set to 80Mhz, everything crashes (the box, the steamlink, this network card).
I have never had a problem with a 5Ghz@80Mhz Wi-Fi repeater that "converted" my Wi-Fi signal to cable for the PC.
So the problem is with this antenna as I have no problems not using it. I wrote to ASUS support who told me that the antenna can only be used in 20Mhz for an upload rate, so no interest for me, then that the fluidity with the steamlink is not there and I do not want to lower the quality.
On the ASUS website :
802.11 b/g/n/ac: downlink of 1300 Mb/s max, uplink of 1300 Mb/s max. (20/40MHz)
I am therefore returning my product and I am now looking at the top model with 4 antennas (PCE-AC88) which states :
802.11 a/n/ac: downlink up to 2167 Mbps, uplink up to 2167 Mbps (20/40/80MHz)
I still give it a 3.5 because it is a quality product, which is very easy and quick to install, there is not even a need to install the CD provided, the windows updates immediately find the correct and most up-to-date drivers.
As for LDLC, nothing to say, they listen.Review automatically translated -

Nothing to complain about
The card works very well, despite the remote antennas, I don't get much 5GHz, but that's nothing to do with the card, I have quite thick walls that I have to cross diagonally, with an ISP box Wifi, so it's not very surprising. The 2.4GHz of course is better received, so I shoot with it, given my connection (ADSL), it is more than enough for my needs.
The finish is clean, the card is cute as anything.
The utility, if it gives information quickly, did not help me, and even bothered me to connect (since I do not know much about network ....), I used directly the OS of my computer.
It may seem expensive, but once I've been able to buy a proper router, and depending on the lifespan, I think it's worth it.Review automatically translated -

Good network card
Hello,
It's a good network card, on a 1gigabit connection my wifi was 200Mega
With this network card I switched to Megane which for me is a nice improvement.

Powerful, well priced and well designed!
I originally bought this network card to have wifi on my tower whose motherboard did not have it. So I chose the 'middle' model in the ASUS series (yes I'm loyal to asus for their hardware, never had any problem even minimal). The advantage of this model is that the antenna base can be adjusted to get the best possible network. I've been using it for a while now and it's a good idea to check it out and see if it's working properly.
To conclude it is a splendid product ;)Review automatically translated -

Excellent material!
Bought this some time ago and I'm not disappointed at all!
I had at the beginning a small wifi card, 15€, which had lag peaks and a mediocre flow.
I have since switched to the Asus and after some testing, there is no difference between an ethernet cable and this card.
Are you held back by the price? It's worth it.
The antenna can be placed on the desk or other, it is magnetic.
The only fault I can find with this card is the blue LED on the back of the card, it lights up a lot! A piece of paper or tape and it's done.Review automatically translated -

Well
There is a real difference between this card and a simple wifi key, works very well, easy to set up but the positioning of the antennas is quite meticulous and complicated to find the right angle.

Top exactly what we expect!
The network card works great, it looks great.
It's not 5 stars because the software it installs is buggy so I fired it, but otherwise great!
I've been using it for a while now, but it's still a great piece of equipment. :)Review automatically translated -

good map
This card is good especially because of the antenna holder which allows you to get closer to the modem.
The magnetic holder is handy for fixing on a metal support but it's a pity that there is no double sided tape provided to fix on another support.Review automatically translated -

High-performance equipment
Easy to install, convenient antenna system, and very satisfactory performance. With this system, my data rates are much better than before (compared to my PLC boxes). The wifi router is located quite far from the computer (measured signal of 80 dB) but the connection is stable and performs well.

Duhhh
Good quality, easy to use, the built-in software is quite easy to use after a bit of fiddling.
But the range is not as high as they want you to believe, which is slightly problematic for people who are quite far from their box/moden...Review automatically translated -

Nothing to complain about
Very good wifi card, very well packaged. It is connected to a Livebox 4 which Orange says is AC 1733. I can't see any difference between the previously used Ethernet cable and the current wifi connection. The only detail is that I can't do WOL on my PC.

Almost perfect!
The internet connection at home being a puzzle severely limiting my speed, with this card I have a downstream speed 8 to 10 times higher! It's great!
The only drawback is the length of the cable, which is a bit limiting.Review automatically translated -

A bit expensive for what it is and soft unnecessary
Good product, very practical for the installation and its magnetic base. It is true that I get much better reception at home.
The product itself is very good, nothing to say.
The software that comes with it is not at all necessary and is almost useless, especially since it contains bugs, but it is not necessary to install it to enjoy the quality of the product.
For 80 euros, I find it really expensive but I am not disappointed with my purchase, I do not regret it.Review automatically translated -

The card does its job, the reception is impeccable, the cable of the antenna support a little short I find.
I'm not sure if it's a good one or a bad one, but it's a good one.

Power to the point
I opted for this card from my fibre connection and enjoy the best speed. My box is relatively far from my PC. The result is beyond my expectations! Downloads are 10 to 12 times faster than with my old equipment. Easy to connect and configure. Very good hardware

good product
I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.
I've been using it for a while now and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it on a PC with Windows 10 or not. The magnetic stand is very practical indeed.
The only flaw I can see is the length of the cables between the antenna and the card, about 1m, which does not allow the antenna to be moved very far. But otherwise this card is very powerful in wifi ac, it allows to play smoothly online at FPS without any lags. It's as fast as wired.
It is a very good product associated with a wifi ac router is that happiness ...Review automatically translated -

Network card that sends!
The antenna is really useful for picking up wifi and is very easy to place on the side of the box thanks to the magnet which holds really well (however the cable to connect the antenna support is a bit short). The software itself is practical and easy to use.

The Ball's experimental material...!
Installation of the most simple and fast, antennas on magnetic base very practical which makes it possible to install it practically anywhere...! To finish incredible speeds for wifi that does not suffer any comparisons with the eternet or the first PLC for example ...! In short to recommend warmly if it is not the price a little high ...

A marvel
I have been hesitating for a long time about which network cards to choose, I decided on this model, as I am in a building with a common wifi and I wanted to get the best possible reception.
I am not disappointed, the design is as I expected, the magnetic plate with its cable allows to easily move the 3 antennas even if I regret that the cable is a little too short for my taste but good. In short, exactly what I expected!
Strong points:
De-portability of the antennas
I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to use it for a long time.
Weaknesses:
Dock cable a bit short for my taste
I couldn't find a screw in the box to fix the network card in my tower.Review automatically translated -

windows 10 ok
My card was recognized right away by windows 10, no worries about it, it is maybe a bit expensive but it works very well, I have a good flow with it so no worries for me, moreover it is red so it goes well with the theme of my pc.
