Thanks for the great how-to, Mike! I do have to say... if I have the choice, I will buy one with wifi built-in. Just saves the pain of adding it.

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

it is a lot easier to get one with it built in if possible, in the mainstream for US europe canada etc the option is largely left out but in the more developing nations where the manufacturer needs to cut costs as much as possible to reach the lower price points this type of modular system is a lot more popular

Thank you very much, very good video, very informative and to the point. I had a funny problem! I bought one of these adapters, and it didn't come with any antennae for some reason. So I just stuck it in and thought it should work. It didn't, obviously, so I spent the longest time trying to figure out if my metal case was blocking the signal, troubleshooting the drivers and so on, until I just gave up. Now, a year after having this card uselessly sitting around in my PC, I finally figure out the problem haha.

@philscraft1269 2 года назад

Nice helpful video. Thanks. It's now worthwhile to point out that Windows 11 supports all the Intel M.2 wifi cards. Also buyers need to be aware of the system interface, Wi-Fi(PCIe) BT(USB), or, CNVio. They look the same and both fit but there is no cross compatibility. The only difference between the 9260 that you used and the 9560 is the interface.

Hi Mike I have the x570 of that board and have a ngff wifi card from Amazon, AX200 it comes up as, do you have any advice for better antennas?

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

as long as they have the sma type connection a decent antenna with a extra DB gain should improve things, i don't have any specific recommendations but there are a lot of options including direction antennas that will strengthen the signal when angled toward the router or access point

@ryankim8996 3 года назад

bought this same motherboard based on your recommendation! Will this work with an AMD CPU? Also, would the antennas get in the way of the hdmi's coming out of the GPU, or could you face the antennas downward?

Some of the solutions online that I see is getting a PCIE m.2 slot that has a supposed connector to a USB header for the bluetooth but I can't use that since my GPU's thickness is covering the PCIE x1 slot.

Hey my motherboard doesn't really have a m.2 wifi. So can i buy a m.2 key m to key e adapter and connect the m.2 wifi. If so can you recommend a adapter that you know. I'm having a hard time finding a adapter . Thank you

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

that is sometimes an option but due to electrical terminations and potential issues i would really advise against it, what board do you have i might be able to offer some alternative.

@@mikesunboxing I am not really planning on overclocking so i went with the gigabyte b550m ds3h an ryzen 3 3300x. I was planning on buying a pcie wifi but my board only has one usb 2.0 header which means i can either connect my pcie wifi card or my front panel usb 2.0 header. Lastly, if I buy a wifi 6 pcie card to install it in pcie 2.0 slot in a b450 motherboard will i still able to use the wifi 6 or will I be left out behind

I have an ASUS Rog with the 9560 card. I am replacing the power supply and accidentally pulled the 9560 cables loose from the chip. Both cables are black and unlabeled. Does anyone know if it matters which cable goes to main/aux? Both antenna are on the top of case, one at front, and the other at side back.

it is probably fine either way

maybe someone can help me with a question: I'm looking into these for the bluetooth function only really. figured the antennas would give it a big boost, but I'm reading the Bluetooth actually uses USB though the M.2. So does this mean the antennas are only used for Wifi & that Bluetooth needs to get the signal on the chip (needing to go through the metal case)? Would it mean that simply getting a bluetooth usb stick would give better signal? appreciate any help :)

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

yes the bluetooth uses the USB header and the aerial is still used , if you only want blue tooth i would go with a USB stick to be honest, much easier to do and a lot cheaper
