Works fine on Windows 10 and Arch Linux

I was skeptical based on other reviews. It was claimed that there were driver issues or connectivity issues. I had no problem setting this up on Arch Linux and Windows 10. no Nothing. Nada. The Windows 10 Intel driver seems to have already been installed and only works with my R7000 Wi-Fi configuration (it automatically uses the AC connection). The Linux kernel has a built in driver and after installing NetworkManager and the nm applet I set it up in three minutes. I am very impressed. The Network Manager connection properties show that it is connected at 400 Mbps. This is not the advertised 1200 Mbit/s AC standard. 400 Mbps is ridiculous considering the average SATA SSD will constantly be fighting for that kind of bandwidth. If I needed a Gbps connection, I would choose wired ethernet. The other reviews are correct: no DVD/CD is supplied and you must use one of your mobo USB plugs for Bluetooth. I'll update the review if it falls out but so far I'm very surprised and very satisfied.
