Review on SilverStone Technology Magnetic Wi-Fi Antenna Base With Gold Plated Jack And Plug (WAB1B) by Doug Powell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great, but needing USB for Bluetooth is annoying

I have some decent mini PCIE wireless bluetooth combos lying around from dead laptops, so I decided to try one of these adapters. Everything works as expected. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have a better signal than I got with the laptop the card came from. It's just a problem that I need to connect USB when the laptop can work with both WiFi and BT via mini PCIE interface. I was expecting one PCIE to convert to the other with little change, but I don't think it is.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
