TP-LinkTL-WN881ND 300 Mbps Wireless N PCIe WiFi Adapter for PC, PCIe WiFi Card for Desktop, Low-Profile Bracket Included, Supports Windows 10-8.1-8-7-XP (32-64 bit) - Linux 2.6.24-4.1

Easy to install and worked well with Linux mint pc even in a PCI ex16 slot

I can recommend this item!After many hours wrestling with another brand of adapter which failed to be detected even after much troubleshooting and which I had to send back as non-functioning, this TP-Link Archer TX3000E was a breath of fresh air in comparison! Fitting was quick and easy and the new Wi-Fi capability made itself known to the OS straight away, though, of course, proper driver installation was necessary for best results (downloaded from TP-Link website beforehand). Following the BT driver install the Bluetooth side of things similarly works perfectly as well, picking up my BT headphones and pairing very quickly.Wi-Fi performance is pretty good and seems solid and reliable, though not as fast as a wired connection which I will soon be losing when my broadband provider changes. For my needs, however, it will do just fine; mainly light internet use with some streaming and the occasional multi-gigabyte game file download.Overall I'm very pleased with the quality of the adapter and the simplicity of installation. The strong magnet on the base of the antenna means it stays put on either the PC case or (as in my case) a handy nearby radiator. I have a few other TP-Link Wi-Fi and range extender devices in my home now and they have always proved to be solid performers. I should have gone with this adapter from the get-go!

My desktop has internal wi-fi that is clearly not very efficient, it's about 9 years old.I added a TP Link extender from a local shop and that wasn't very effective as there were a myriad of technical issues surrounding that regarding issues with subnet masks and dynamically allocated IP addresses and all sorts of complications.Should have just gotten this first, I don't even need the extender, at all, now.I have 632mbps connection at the router, but previously I was only getting about 33 upstairs even with the extender.Now I'm getting about 150mbps upstairs in the back room, just from slotting in this cheap wi-fi card.Now I don't have to drill a hole through the ceiling for a Lan cable.So, yeah, adding this cheap card to a 9 year old Medion Akoya AMD desktop worked a treat.Didn't even have to install drivers, it just worked; plug and play - pulled out the spacer, slapped this in, connected the antenna(s), turned it on, instant significant improvement in download and upload speeds.So, I'm glad I didn't buy a more expensive card, this was good enough.I did a little bit of research and the usb ones aren't supposed to be very good... Best to go this route if you know how crack open the PC and slot the card in.

Very good product. So far so good. It was actually better than what I was expecting. It is working very well and is quick with my wifi 6. Getting good speeds. Was easy enough to install, though for the BT to work I had to buy a internal usb splitter as you need to connect a internal usb cable from the card to the MB for the BT to work and I didn’t have enough internal slots. I would recommend this wifi card

Works well on my Windows 10 machine. I have the cheap 300Mbps model and it seems to work well. I ran a few tests yesterday and it's always been around 70Mbps, with a low of around 40Mbps only around 6:30 PM, when I've always seen a dip in my connection speed, no matter what I used.I looked into getting one of these because I like to watch instructional videos on my TV while I exercise (so I don't become completely desk-bound), but Chromecast just didn't play nice with those. Additionally, my connection speed used to be around 40Mbps *at best* when using the powerline adaptor, so I'm quite glad to get around 70 (and often around 78) during the day as I work from home and having a good connection is nice.The WiFi router I connect to is in the next room, so there's a solid wall between my PC and the router, which is at about 3m of distance, if I had to take a guess.I'm a bit wary of opening up my PC case and installing stuff, but this was really easy to install. You just have to make sure you have the right connection on your motherboard. Then you twiddle the antennae in, insert the CD that's provided, install the software, connect to the WiFi of your choice and you're done!So far, the connection itself is reliable. I only had a couple of hiccups with Chromecast in the evening, but that could be the device itself, too. I'd definitely recommend this card, it's really affordable for what it allowed me to do.

For years I've been having problems with internet speed on my PC and this solved all of them.I've been using powerline adapter and I always got maximum of 45mbps and all that with wired connection. After I installed this in my PC and set up, it automatically got tripple the speed and it went up to 120-130mbps on wireless connection. It's worth mentioning these tesults were gained through 3 walls, PC upstairs in the office and modem down in the living room.The set ups was nice and easy on my windows 11. Insert the card into PCIe slot, connect the antenas, install the drivers and off you go.With my internet package of 500mbps I wanted more. I got TP-Link Deco x55 which gave me nice coverage in the whole house without any interruptions and these two work perfectly when combined. In the end I got a very stable 300-400mbps speed accross all devices including my PC.I am very happy with everything including the price, build wuality and ease of set up. My workflow is much better now and everything is flying now!
