Purchased this card as an upgrade over existing D-Link DWA-171 Wireless AC600 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi USB Adapter. Previously used that adapter and TP-Link TL-WN725N 150Mbps Wireless N Nano USB Adapter but was not happy because the inconsistency in connection. After research found out the issue may not be necessarily with the adopters but the USB connection having noises and interference which causes the connection to break for some mil-seconds which is enough to disconnect your gaming session. Though WiFi is not recommended for serious gamer but for recreational gamer like me the PCIe connection is consistent enough over USB. In the box you will get,1. The Card with black PCB and heat sink (black). Looks premium and well build. The heat sink is the reason I have choose it over Asus AC2100 Dual-Band PCIe 160MHz Wi-Fi Adapter though it has BT5.0. The green pcb, no heatsink, extra cable of asus makes it ugly.2. 2 Antenna3. 1 low profile bracket for installing it in thin cases4. Driver CD (Download driver from website and never use it)5. Product documentation.Installation is super easy even for dummies just go through any video tutorial and you will be good to go.Pros,1. Very good build quality. Feels well put together.2. For 2.4GHz band, the signal reception is just fantastic. My router (modem+router) is the basic optic fiber one that comes with the service provider so no 5GHz support. But personally I don't prefer 5GHz since there are few walls in-between my router and PC and I can't use Ethernet cable for aesthetic purpose. Signal penetration reduces drastically with increase in frequency. And unless you are using a internet having 100Mbps+ you don't need a 5GHz router. Now to handle interference of signal with your neighbors, I use 20MHz channel and reduced Tx power to 35%. Even then with this card i get full network.3. Speed is good enough for my 20MBps capped broadband connection and ping is fantastic for a Wi-Fi. Only 2-3ms for local servers. For google.com I have tested ping which is 55-60ms. However if you are using a better connection your mileage will be better.4. Decent for recreational gamer. If you are not very serious in your online sessions, this this card will be great. I play few online racing games (like FH4, Heat) and never faced any lag with this card.Cons:1. No Bluetooth.So here is my verdict. If you are searching how to connect your desktop with your router wireless, then avoid dongles and get this card. It will serve you well for all of your day to day needs and some gaming as well. But not recommended for serious gamers and a Ethernet connection is way to go.Update:1. I have purchased a new router because the old one which which came with the ISP started to show problems. Purchased Netgear AC2000 (R6850) router with 5GHz support. I have tested this card with with 5GHz and as I have mentioned earlier due to 2 walls in between (but distance is very less), it is barely getting 2 bars and the signal strength is -70dBm not good I would say, BUT I have never faced a connection drop even with this low coverage of 5GHz.2. Tested with online file transfer in the routers USB drive and I am getting 25-35MB/s speed which translates to approx. 300mbps connection speed not bad I would say at -70dBm signal strength.3. Also increased my ISP speed to 40mbps and you can see in the pic that even with this coverage I am getting a constant 40mbps speed. I am using a 1 to 1 connection with constant speed not like Jio where the speed varies with network load.

I’ve had a good experience using the TP-Link AX1800 WiFi 6 card so far. The WiFi performance is excellent—fast, stable, and reliable. Installation was simple, and it worked right out of the box without any issues.The only minor downside is the Bluetooth range. It’s not as strong as I expected—some devices struggle to stay connected at a distance. However, I feel this might be improved by adjusting the PC's position or antenna direction.Overall, it’s a solid upgrade for better wireless connectivity, especially for WiFi 6 users.

It is good for old PC it's working nice and sometimes it's not working with one maa one of my phone nothing phone to your wife why hotspot not connecting to my PC another network dongle is connected that is the problem good for the systems ok ok

The wifi is good and the speed is also very good.
