fenvi Dual Band Wireless-AC Intel 9260 Chipset PC PCIE 2030Mbps Bluetooth 5.0 WiFi 802.11ac 2.4Ghz / 5Ghz MU-MIMO Desktop Wifi PC Network Card with Magnetic Antenna Miracast

I had a USB 3 wifi dongle, but wanted to free up a USB 3 slot, so bought this and opened up my machine - this slotted in as easily as installing RAM, just find the only slot it can fit in - and push it in.It came with an internal USB wire that is required to use the bluetooth function on this device. I did not know at time of purchase (maybe I didn't read enough) that some free USB pins on the motherboard is required to get the bluetooth to function - I used mine up when I built the computer and connected them to the USB sockets on the case. By internal USB wire, I mean it doesn't have a USB plug on the end, but the small plastic socket for the pins from a motherboard.That said, it works great as Wifi only without this wire, i screwed in both plugs, dual channel and great signal. I have a small bluetooth dongle that I can plug in as required and I don't use it enough to warrant unplugged any USB ports on my PC.

4 stars for me just because in 2.4ghz mode the wifi signal is weaker (and lower quality) than the ASUS 150mbps card it was replacing despite this card having the 2 antennas instead of one.This card however has allowed me to use the 5Ghz channel on my Virgin superhub so my download speeds have now increased from 5mbps-20mbps which I was previously getting. I am now able to get between 50mbps and 75mbps , still nowhere near the 100mbps I am supposed to get but I will take the 50 over 5 anyday of the week !I attached photos of the ASUS v Fenvifor those looking for updated drivers, this card uses the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 chipset, you can find the latest drivers here:[...]

I took a punt on this card despite some reviews being heavily slaying the device, knowing it was a Killer chip and Fenvi had a growing reputation of good prices and quality.Many people were moaning either about connection speeds or signal quality/dropouts and even the quality of the card.Have been using the card for an entire evening's gaming session and I couldn't be happier. It seems most people buying this card are quite clueless or have very little understanding about how networks actually work.The device came extremely well packaged, is of really good quality and even has a decent size heatsink for prolonged sessions. Windows (win10 build 1903) installed drivers for both the Bluetooth chip and Wi-Fi. It did however as usual with windows grab an older version, this was easily fixed by visiting Killer networks website and grabbing the newer drivers.Straight away I was getting the full 867 (866.7) Mbps to my router. Which paired with my new 500/500 fibre is a godsend. Signal strength is great my router is an entire floor and room away, about 2/3 walls between me and it.LITERALLY the only downside to this card is the unsightly antennae. It's easy to hide however and can be orientated in 3 different ways, which makes it even easier to hide away.Could not be happier. Price was amazing and the card itself is amazing. Ignore poor reviews on this card if you have any clue about how networking ACTUALLY works, you'll be fine. If you don't do your research and ensure you know what you are buying and why you are buying it to ensure you are getting the most out of both this and your home network.Would definitely buy again and recommend Fenvi products to others from here on wards.

Great product that has increased my internet speeds from 21mbps to 45+mbps, not quite the 70 - 75mbps I get via my Ethernet cable, and not quite as good as I wanted, but I am a floor and a wall away from my router. The only issue is that the box is entirely in Chinese and the little CD that came with the included drivers didn't work so I had to find and extract the drivers from the Fenvi website itself. Otherwise caused me no physical set-up hassle.

There is a review stating it doesn't work on AMD machines etc which the poster obviously is so dim they probably had attempted to install the card into a floppy disk drive. Works out of the box no need to install drivers etc as windows does everything.

Worked like an absolute charm for the first month, then it abruptly refused to connect to the 5GHz band. Customer services were fantastic and now the new one is running after some driver issues, otherwise it's been reliable and I can get around 220Mbps with it.

Awful card. First of all, I live in the UK and have BT broadband. The encryption of my router was incompatible with this card meaning if I changed the encryption, I would no longer be able to use my other devices. Worse still, the only other option was to remove the encryption entirely.There was no warning that the card would only support a certain type of encryption, all it says is it is compatible with windows 10...which it is...once you get the drivers.Now I don't have an optic drive on my PC as it's very new and haven't got around to buying it yet. No problem I thought, I'll just go to the Fenvi website and download the drivers. Of course then I realised I had no wifi because the card wasn't installed. So I plugged in my ethernet cable to my onboard network card and went in search of the drivers. Well, if you have a good idea of how computers work then you'd probably be ok...(fortunately I had just enough knowledge to get me by but it took a while and some guesswork). First off, the website is a little shoddy and not well presented. Secondly, the drivers are all listed but are .RAR files which have to be downloaded and extracted. Now, I had a fresh windows install and no extraction software but fortunately windows 10 showed me the light and gave me a solution. Even then, once I'd downloaded the drivers (which windows could not automatically find online) I kept getting errors saying the file was damaged. Eventually I sorted the problem with some help from dad and I was on my way! Woohoo, time to use the internet!...uhm, no. Because of the encryption problem. So eventually I realised I was getting no where and that it was an unsolvable problem. I returned the item to amazon for a full refund.My advice would be to buy a better known brand which has decent software support. I'll never buy another Fenvi product, I suggest you don't either.
