IGNORE BAD REVIEWS - It's plug and play and performs extremely well!!

Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2019

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

This is the kind of product that requires a *TINY* bit of knowledge to install and configure, so naturally there are a ton of negative reviews on Amazon because people don't know what they're doing.

Old versions of windows 10 had issues with this card - this has since been fixed. So if you have a newer build of windows 10 (1809 or newer) you just plug it in and it works. No driver install, you don't need the disc, windows 10 already has the driver for it out of the box and it works great.

Been using it for a week without a single problem. I bought this because I got fiber and wanted to take advantage of it. I can download at 45MB/s (megabytes, not megabits...) which is the same speed I get on LAN. Connections are rock solid for large downloads (downloaded over 200GB on it so far without a hiccup) and pings when gaming are within 1-2ms of my PC on LAN when playing competitive games and shooters.

Not sure what all the complainers are talking about, because this card is perfect. Easy to install, speeds are high, and it works great for gaming. VERY happy with the purchase!!

Windows 10 problems, but there are workarounds for stable operation.

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

I bought 2 of these cards and have identical problems on both installs, one at my house (Linksys EA8500 router) and one elsewhere with a different Wi-Fi router installed (an Asus, not sure of the model). The cards would seem to work fine for web browsing and other low bandwidth operations, such as retrieving email, etc. But after you've been online for a while it would drop, and it would drop even faster if you were doing a bandwidth intensive task such as watching HD videos or downloading large files.

In troubleshooting the problem I found two workarounds that give me a solid connect and no more drops. For both workarounds you want the latest drivers from TP-Link for the card, but should it be able to work with the default driver that Windows 10 installed as well

I discovered that the problem occurs when you are connected to a 802.11ac network (5gHz band), which it will select by default if available.

The first and simplest work around was to set the card to only operate on 802.11n or 802.11a when on the 5gHz band. Operation is much more reliable and can be set in the device manager options for the card in Windows. While I did not test this as thoroughly as workaround #2 below, I could make it fail consistently when connected to a 802.11ac by installing large games thru Steam, but was able to complete the 50GB to 100GB downloads when connected to 802.11n. The second install of this card is using this workaround as well and I've heard no complaints from the user.

The second workaround involves making changes to the router to allow this card to operate on 802.11ac reliably. The particular issue has to do with the channel width, for whatever reason this AC1200 card will NOT operate reliably on a channel width of 80MHz, ESPECIALLY if there are other 5gHz routers in the area using a channel that's close to the one you're using!

On my Linksys EA8500 router I had to change to the WPA2 Personal security mode and fix the channel width to 40MHz only. I still let the card connect to the 802.11ac network on the 5gHz band, and with these settings the connect is rock solid and reliable. This one I've tested both by using large game installations on Steam and by file sharing over the local network for the past few weeks, and it is working great with hundreds of gigabyte of files exchanged.

These are workaround, not fixes! The only way these can be fixed is by TP-Link themselves addressing this problem with channel width problems! But these workarounds WILL get you running reliably if you have one of these cards.

The downside of both workarounds is that the Wi-Fi link is a lot slower, and workaround #1 is a LOT slower than #2 though. With no changes, I would get download speeds of around 24MBps on Steam (before it inevitably failed), but after implementing workaround #2 and changing the channel width speeds dropped to around 15MBps (but would not drop), though this was faster than the 8MBps I was getting under workaround #1 (802.11n).

Of course reliability trumps speed, but there is no reason why we should need workarounds! TP-Link needs to fix this hence only 3 stars for this card.

Works great with windows 10 and Linux

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi Card w/ BluetoothVerified Purchase

After rearranging my office I needed to add this wireless card to my PC for connectivity. This card works wonderfully. I have an 802.11AC router with beam forming enabled and an ISP plan for 600Mbps. The speed tests on the computer using this wireless card consistently match speed tests ran on the router/AP itself though your results may vary.

I dual boot the system with windows 10(latest update as of this review) and linux(ubuntu 20.04 based popOS!). This card was detected by both OS's without any driver installation or configuration needed. Definitely would recommend this card.

Don't buy with integrated Bluetooth, look elsewhere

Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi Card w/ BluetoothVerified Purchase

This product has a lot of 5 star reviews, and I think the standard model without bluetooth may deserve them. The model that has bluetooth "included" is a very poor design. Instead of connecting the bluetooth through the PCIe connection, you have to connect it to a USB hub on your system board (the one that most system boards reserve for front panel USB connections). It's just dumb to have to waste an entire USB HUb on one device, let alone one that should be connecting through the PCIe connection the card was designed for.

WiFi works well, installation is quick and easy, comes with a low profile bracket as well. I bought a card that had integrated bluetooth, which I now cannot use because the card is poorly designed. I'll stick with the micro-dongle I already have for bluetooth, but will keep the card since it's not worth the hassle to exchange. The point of this review is to let others know the bluetooth capabilities are very misleading, and the reviews have the non-bluetooth version mixed in with the bluetooth version.

Works great

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi Card w/ BluetoothVerified Purchase

Both 2.4 and 5 GHz wifi work great even with the router on the other side of the house through many walls. Bluetooth works fine without any issues. My only complaint is that the antennas are a bit long, but it's not an issue at all. The card itself is pretty small which is nice because it sits close to my graphics card and I was worried it might block airflow. Hooked it up and it worked right away without having to use the install CD.

Weirdly enough, it's not getting the proper speed

Reviewed in Canada on February 6, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

I bought 4 wifi adapters to test and this is one of them.

PRO:
- This works really well out of box, no need to download driver
- Plugged in easily into the slot and it comes with a smaller PCI bracket too

CON:
- Oh boy where to start...how about the $40 price tag that's $15 more than the T3U a USB 3.0 device from TP link that has FASTER speed (https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07P6N2TZH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
- The speed just won't match its USB 3.0 brother (18% slower just for down), but up, ping and jitter look fine and match other cards I tested
- It takes two day shipping...comparing to other cards which are one day shipping
- It requires you to install into your computer and only works for PC
- The driver for the Canadian website is missing. You need to go to the global site and when the language selector popped up, don't select Eng or Fren, just close it and you will find the driver

Verdict:
- buy this if you have better luck attaining the speed
- buy this if you don't want something dangling out of your USB port and you want it to travel easily with your machine
- Buy this if you are willing to spend more $

Defective - i should have read more comments and saved the trouble

Reviewed in Canada on June 28, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

Its like it has a mind of its own, sometimes connects only to 2.4ghz, not 5ghz, or doesnt want to connect at all.

Drops connections, adds ping spikes/time outs on the tests i did to my router, etc... i couldn't stand it for more than 2 hours on my pc, half of which it didnt work.

I tried everything, other PCIE slots, disable firewall/antivirus, resets, restarts, driver reinstall, relearn networks, etc. all a waste of time. Oh and i am using a fairly new TP-Link router too...

I wanted to replace my good old 10$ usb wifi dongle with this, but its not worth the waste of time

Perfect! (if you can get it to work)

Reviewed in Canada on August 11, 2019

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

DRIVER FIX FOR WINDOWS 10: If you want this to work, forget the original driver. Install the Realtek RTL8812AE Windows 8 x64 driver and force your device to use it.

I ordered this product, it didn't work very well, ordered a replacement, and it's a bit better (but still not perfect.)

First one: Most drivers were super unreliable and had awful speeds 99% of the time. The Realtek driver fixed it, mostly. It made 2.4 GHz always fast, but 5 GHz sometimes slow (1Mb/s). I was usually able to fix it by unscrewing one antenna, turning off wifi, screwing it back in, and turn wifi back on.

Second one: Much better. Again, other drivers don't work well, only this one does. Occasionally 5GHz speeds drop to 10Mb/s, which I can usually fix by pushing on the adapter a bit and restarting my PC.

Will keep monitoring how well it works, eventually might just have to switch to AC1300 or AC1900. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND you don't try the AC1200 unless it's much cheaper.

Oh, and it's way better than a USB wifi adapter. Same speeds but connection is much more reliable. I can actually play CSGO now.

I do not recommend.

Reviewed in Canada on May 19, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi CardVerified Purchase

I've had nothing but problems with this wireless adapter, the speeds are slower then any other device in my house by a considerable amount, and their website doesn't have any updated drivers for 2020, so I'm not able to fix any of the issues I'm having with this.
There was no physical damage done to the adapter and install was easy, it just plugged in and worked, but I will be looking for a new adapter, since I'm getting less then 0.20mbs a second compared to the 8.0mbs on everything else I tested my wifi speed on.

Decent

Reviewed in Canada on September 14, 2020

Model: AC1200 WiFi Card w/ BluetoothVerified Purchase

Works great.

Drivers installed themselves automatically on Windows 10 (install disc not required).

Bluetooth range is good. Wandered outside with my Wonderboom 2 wireless speaker and it worked fine 50 feet away.

WiFi range seems fine. Cannot really speak to maximum speed. Was able to max out my 50 MBPs internet connection, which is nowhere near the rated speed of this card.

Observations:

- antennae are massive compared to the N300 card on my other machine
- swapping out to the smaller bracket was a bit difficult; took me a while to find the right tool to loosen the locking nuts on the antenna bolts
- that extra little provided wire _must_ be connected to F-USB port on your motherboard for bluetooth to work
- there were more pins on my motherboard (6x2) than the adapter (5x2) but you can use the missing pin in the array to figure out how to attach it
