[0.57 lb] The Asus PCIe Wi-Fi adapter is an excellent product but I had difficulty getting it to work. After much time spent in trying to get it to work I contacted technical support and found out what was wrong. Window 10 users be aware that the WIFI card will not work if you have the ethernet cord attached to the PC. It is an either or situation where you cannot have both hooked up. This was frustrating as several technicians did not realize this quirk (needed WIFI to hook up to Fitbit website). 5

[0.57 lb] I have never had problems with my bluetooth, I got full blue tooth connection throughout my house even with my little Soundpeats q30 plus. This wifi adapter is faster than our ethernet, which makes 0 sense but even with a cat 5 cable, I get around 200mbps while I get around 130 with the ethernet. It really is hassle-less. So if you have a spare PCI-E slot, this is a really good budget wifi adapter. (Also you don't need an optical drive for the software disc, just go to the website on the disk or look up the software for the adapter and port it onto your pc with a USB. Though, my computer didn't even need the software) 5

[0.57 lb] This was a two birds with one stone proposition for me. I now have much better Wifi signal than previous adapter which was only 802.11bgn, and much better Bluetooth experience than with previous 4.0 adapter. If you have speaker disconnect issues after installing, go to Device Manager and find your Bluetooth device that has a Power Management setting under Properties. Uncheck the box that allows the computer to turn off the device to save power. The antenna could be heavier or have embedded magnets but it works very well and the cord is long enough. I feel that my purchase was well worth the cost and functional improvement. 5
