Review on ASUS PCE AC56 Wireless Express Adapter by Josue Porter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great card, a few flaws

Pros: - It's really fast with AC. I'm a decent distance away and my bandwidth is significantly higher than my ISP can provide. - 100% plug and play with Windows 10. Just plugged into my Asus X99 mobile device and it worked straight away. No cables or other nonsense. You can either place the antennas on a small extension stand when you're away from your router, or simply plug them into the back of your PC. Options, man, options. It's a slim card with a red anodized heatsink. Cons: The mounting plate was too long for my standard ATX case, but it wasn't something that could be repaired with a small hacksaw. Maybe I didn't read the description very carefully, I don't know, but it was a surprise. If it didn't need to be fiddled with, it would be a two-minute setup process. - Seems a bit pricey for a Wi-Fi adapter - The external antenna is terrible and requires a MUCH longer cable so I can put it on a high shelf where nobody has to look at it.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some little things
