Review on πŸ”Œ Asus AX3000 PCIe Wireless Adapter with Bluetooth 5.0 - Next-Gen WiFi 6, Dual Band, OFDMA, 2x2 MU-MIMO, WPA3 Security (PCE-AX58BT) - Black by Devin Maselli

Amazing speed, easy installation

In anticipation of this I went to the Asus website and downloaded/installed the appropriate drivers. When the card arrived I installed it and didn't even get a popup that new hardware was found. I just clicked the network icon in the bottom right corner and all my SSIDs were there. In other words, installation (if you can call it that) is quick and painless. I made the stupid mistake of not checking that my only USB 2.0 ports are unoccupied. They are due to my NZXT unicorn cover. So now I have to order a USB hub to take advantage of the Bluetooth component. Now for performance. My computer is furthest away from the Asus AX11000 router. It's in an upstairs room and has a brick wall that the signal goes through. With my 5G USB dongle, I'm pulling out around 120-130Mbps. With this new PCIe adapter connected to a Wi-Fi 6 channel, I'm pulling out around 650-700Mbps. Happiness, happiness, joy, joy!
