Hello, I've been having internet connectivity issues with my main pc (amd cpu, windows 10) for a while now and I cannot figure out why. Thought it was the WiFi card (Archer TXE72E), but when testing on separate desktop (intel cpu, windows 11) the card performed significantly better than my main. For example, I have a wpa3 WiFi connection that my main pc cannot connect to when using the WiFi card, but my second pc can with 0 issue when using the same WiFi card. Usually when the main pc tries to connect to the wpa3 connection it will either connect and have no access to the internet, or the WiFi on my pc will seemingly restart. I think it is specifically the main pc itself as I bought the Archer TXE72E to replace the previous TP Link WiFi card it was using because I was having the same issues with that one. If anyone has any advice on this that would be appreciated! -
Hi all, I'm using Nobara 38 with KDE and I have the Archer T6E AC1300 wifi card. I'm dual booting Windows 10 and Nobara from physically separate drives, they don't have any common partitions or drives either. The distro didn't seem to have any drivers installed for the card, so I followed various forum posts and installed the braodcom-wl drivers for the wifi card using dnf. I ran the command lspci -nn -d 14e4: and got the following output-- 04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:43a0] (rev 03) My wifi card seems to be able to connect to my router and hotspots from my phones, but fails to create a hotspot from the PC. I'm not using any terminal commands to create hotpspot, I'm clicking on the Hotspot button in the Network system tray menu. Everytime I get the notifications shown below when it fails-- I have even tried creating a Wifi (shared) network manually from the Connectivity page of KDE Settings. It also gives the same mesasge. PC Specifications:- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 8GB GDDR6 Motherboard: ASrock B450M Pro 4 RAM: 2x8 GB 3600 MHz running at 3200 MHz Storage: 1 TB NVMe m.2, 1 TB SATA 3 6 GB/s m.2, 1 TB SATA 3 6 GB/s 2.5' Power: Corsair RM650 80+ Gold Please help fix this problem, or understand why it's happening. Thanks.

I recently bought a wifi card and I downloaded all of the drivers necessary for it through windows update and google. I'm currently using ethernet but I need the wifi to work. I looked in device manager for hidden devices, I tried to see if it was under a different name by unplugging it from my mobo and I don't see it. The only thing I do see is the Bluetooth that it comes with which seems to be functioning, but wifi is nowhere. The wifi card I'm using is this one: https://www.newegg.com/fenvi-pce-ax200t-pci-express/p/0XM-00JK-00091?Item=9SIADXZBPU1609 I downloaded drivers off of their site, and intel's site. (AX200) Nothing helped. I also installed intel's support thing for detecting missing drivers and stuff and it found none that needed to be installed or updated. I'm using a 5600x with an asus rog strix b550-a gaming.

I am considering purchasing an ASUS PCE-AC88 wifi card to connect to my motherboard (ASRock B450m Pro4 Micro ATX) in my PC. However, I believe the available PCIe1 slot on my motherboard is too close to my graphics card for this wifi card to fit, since my motherboard is so small. Does anyone have a recommendation for a high quality PCIe riser cable that is compatible to connect my motherboard to this wifi card without slowing down my internet connection? If the wifi card is on a cable, I believe I can secure it to an case opening underneath the gpu. It won't look pretty but it should offer better performance than my USB dongle.

*This is my first post, I apologize if the quality is not good, please tell me how I can fix it!* I have an old MSI GS63VR stealth pro and I’d like to upgrade my WiFi Bluetooth card. I’m not sure what a good upgrade would be. I’m aware that the Intel 8260 was a common upgrade a couple years ago, so I just wanted to know if there are any better upgrades for today’s age. thanks!

Hey, about to take some stuff out of crappy prebuilt and put it inside a custom PC. Just had a question about the wifi card, though; I just bought an Intel M.2 Wifi6 Kit, which is great, because that frees up a pcie slot on my new mobo. However, my prebuilt comes with an m.2 wifi card, and I was wondering if that could replace my Intel Kit and I could save a buck. However, in the Intel Kit, the card leads to two antennas, while the prebuilt Wifi card is attached to two weird metal pieces screwed in just outside my case (I assume those are just some weird antennas). I guess my question is, if I were to find some place in/on the case to place those metal pieces on, would I be able to use the prebuilt card, or is the card, in some weird way, only usable with the prebuilt PC? Sorry if this post seems out of place, kind new to the forums, and this is the only place I could find that relates to wifi cards. Thanks to anyone who helps.

I'm planning to add a wifi/bluetooth card to my side build (Gigabyte B450 AORUS Elite V2 + Ryzen 5 2600), but the manual for the Mobo says that the PCI-e x4 and x1 slots that I have open/available only run at PCI-e Gen 2.0. Will PCI-e 2.0 x 4 or x1 pose a bandwidth/throttling problem for any BT + Wi-Fi card? Is there a point in adding Wi-Fi 5 or 6 at that point, or will I be limited by the PCI lanes/gen? I'm hoping that the PCI-e throughput, even at 2.0 x4 or x1 will still be fast enough that the actual wireless network/ISP/router will be the bottleneck, not the PCI-e interface. A cursory search didn't turn up much, so I figured I'd ask to see if anyone has had this discussion before.

Hey guys, so I want to buy this wifi card on amazon but I don't know what I should look for and what I should check for compatibility. Can someone please help me, thanks. - Here is my set up -
So I'm renting a room and the apartament also has a router with internet access, since the wall plugs didn't have lan connections in them, I bought a wifi card (COMFAST CF-WP1750 1750Mbps). I plugged it into my desktop and was amazed by the fast speeds of glass fibre internet and this presumably high speed wifi card. Suddenly without me doing anything i lost connection, then it connected again, worked for a while, then lost connection again. I investigated, reinstalled the drivers, used windows default drivers, plugged in and out, re-attached the antennas, tried putting a lan plug in the wall, but it still isn't working and i can't really investigate why because I don't have the network testing tools, neither have access to the router interface, since it's locked for anyone other than the apartament owner. I noticed the connection did something like this (notice the periodically appearing losses of connection): Pinging the router showed the same results, whereas in i.e. 10 pings, 9 of them were at a latency of 1ms and the 10th was at latencies near to 1000ms, this is extremly annoying when playing games and listening to online lectures. Sometimes it doesn't detect the 5GHz variant of the connection despite seeing many other 5GHz connections from other apartaments. The automatic energy saving mode on the wifi card is also turned off since I already saw many other forums on similar problems like this. Today for example in the night i sat to like 3 AM in the night and i had no problems at all with the connection and when I woke up today and wanted to turn on my online lecture it started cutting off all the time and it's persisting while i am writing this post. Could someone give me a clue on what is happening here and how i could possibly fix it? EDIT: I also noticed that when another person in the apartament in the room besides mine opens or closes the door, the connection seems to cut off (wierd, right??)

I've switched from Sky to Virgin internet today, the Mbps on Ookla on my desktop has gone from aorund 5-15 Mbps to 50-100 Mbps. As I was playing League I had great ping in the 30s or so, however I suddenly had spikes where I'd disconnect from the game. When that happened it wouldn't reconnect manually, I had to turn off wifi and reconnect to my router. Does this seem like an issue with my network card? I don't have ethernet as an option. Edit - My network card is a TP-Link Archer T4E AC1200 -
Built my PC a few days ago and I was able to set it up perfectly with everything functioning as it's supposed to. But today when I turned on my PC, I found that my wifi card was disconnected from the internet and that I could not connect to the wifi. When I checked the hardware connections area in settings everything correlating to the wifi card was "disconnected" . I tried taking out the wifi card and reinstalling the card and putting it back in but that didn't work at all. I then tried looking at youtube to help me but that didn't seem to do the trick at all either. At this point I'm debating on returning the card and getting a new one. I was checking to see if the internet had any suggestions before I do so?

Hey all, I won't be able to connect LAN cable anymore to my PC and only have one PCIE 2.0 x16 slot available on my motherboard. Will a PCIE express WiFi card work on this slot? I have used a powerline before and am not interested in purchasing another one so what are my other solutions?

I want to replace the wifi card on my b550m a motherboard and want to know if I can replace the current one and just install a new one. I currently can’t add a wifi card through pcie because my graphics card is way too beefy.

Need a wifi card but getting a headache trying to figure out whats compatible. My motherboard is a ASRock Z690 Phantom Gaming 4 ATX LGA1700 and it's manual reads: I've had people recommend me https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B085M7VPDP and https://www.newegg.ca/intel-wi-fi-6-ax200/p/N82E16833106102 but still am not sure

Question, do WiFi 6E cards require special antennas to pick up 6GHz signals? I have an AC wifi card in my PC right now with an after market extended dual band 2.4/5GHz antenna. If I buy one of these, I would like to get the antennas out from behind my PC, so I need to know if the antenna I have now will work with 6GHz. There is a review that says it works with their 6E connection but that’s not very concrete as far as my question goes. Thanks,

Hello everyone. First of all I apologize in advance for my bad english, it’s not my first language. As the title says, I want to upgrade storage on my old Asus l205sa. It has only 32gb of internal emmc memory, and I wanted to replace wifi card with an SSD if thats even possible. On asus website it says that wifi card is m.2 so I was wondering if the motherboard supports putting some kind of SSD in that slot. Thanks in advance.

Hi, after Installing a wifi card in my PC first time after plugging it in the PCIe slot the computer booted and the wifi was working, after shutting down and turning on the PC i get the message "initializing intel boot agent ge v1.5.50". If i unplug the PCIe card PC will boot again like normal and If i plug the PCIe card back in first time it will boot and it will show wifi as working but if I shut down the PC and try to turn it on again I will get that message. I've removed anything network related from the boot order and disabled option network boot option that I found in the BIOS. Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

I’ve filled up the remaining ram slot I wasn’t using with more ram and bought a wifi card and installed it on a pcie x1 port. When installing it made a harsh, grind noise like sand. I suppose it was hard particles of dust since I never used those ports since I got the motherboard (5 years ago). Everything seems to be working fine but since there’s a chance that those particles are still inside the slots, will they cause any sort of insulation o overheat issues (that could result in burns ) while current goes through the connection? P.D: I cleaned the slots with two short bursts of canned air before installing but It looks like some particles stayed. -
WiFi Card: Gigabyte GC-WBAX210 I updated my Ryzen 2600 to a 5600X, but after updating my BIOS and installing the CPU, my external WiFi card does not work. Note: I have the latest WiFi and BT drivers. Not working on Windows or Linux... but still detected on both OS. Any ideas? If it got messed up on both OS, could it be a BIOS config?

Hi! Thanks to anyone who helps. Also, please let me know if I should post this somewhere else - I didn't know whether to put this under motherboards or software. So, recently, I bought a mini-pcie to pcie x16 mining riser so I could use a GPU I had as an external GPU for my laptop (Lenovo Ideapad p500) (also, I know I shouldn't really use a mining riser for this purpose, but I'm on a tight budget). So, I take out the wifi card, hook up my riser, graphics card, and psu how its supposed to be. When I turn it on - nothing. The fans are running on both the GPU and the PSU, but, when I go into device manager, it doesn't even pop up anywhere. I try the riser in another older laptop I have, and it works. So, I try to install the GPU driver, I try making sure the plug is secure, I try uninstalling the old graphics driver, I even put in the old wifi card (which it recognizes) and... nothing. After some research, I learn my laptop is whitelisted, and will not recognize any other device besides the original wifi card. I read that the solution is to deactivate the LAN card under advanced settings in the BIOS, but I don't have advanced settings, so I just go under configuration, disable Wireless LAN, and it still doesn't work. At this point, I don't know what to do. I eventually find a video (below) on modding the BIOS. The modding requires me to use intel ME Tools V8 r3 (which I think should work, as my Intel Management Engine is v8). However, when I load it up in the first set of instructions (in cmd), it says, "Error 104: The 2 SPI flash devices do not have compatible command sets." I'm stumped (It might be that I copied over windows from another PC onto this PC - I did reset windows though, and it installed all the necessary drivers). Can anyone help as to how to disable whitelist on this PC? (PS - I cannot back up my BIOS with the software in the video, as almost every major antivirus sees the backup software as a virus. Also, I can't go into safe mode, as it gives me a BSOD). -
I have a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 for my motherboard, and ever since I got it my wifi card hasn't been able to pick up a wifi signal. I've tried ever troubleshoot I could find online and playing around with settings myself, and yet nothing has worked. This has been a problem for months now and I'm so tired of it. I've been able to get a wifi signal to my computer with an ethernet cable, but I can't get that cable hooked up to the router at my new house. I would like to figure this out. I think this is my wifi card: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0832MR4WB?pd_rd_i=B0832MR4WB&pd_rd_w=HpxF7&pf_rd_p=75edadd2-86be-4ee5-8051-494ee8e3e65e&pd_rd_wg=Ho5az&pf_rd_r=CE0RGBK6SP0EBB3BV1JP&pd_rd_r=4e7ff003-db7b-451f-b829-38af3a357630

Hello! Recently I've gotten a wifi card, and it works great... except the fact that it needs to use the x16 lane pcie slot to work! I was wondering if that was an bios issue and if there is something I need to enable, as it's normally used in a 1x pcie slot. I even checked on another motherboard and it worked just fine on any slot, so it's not the wifi card's fault.

Hello everyone! My house just got a two in one Wi-Fi router / modem that has 5g and Wi-Fi 6. I want to get a corresponding wifi/Bluetooth upgrade for my pc in the form of a pci/pci-e slot card as it’s rather old and only supports 2.4 ghz. Is there anything I should know before buying? Are there any potential compatibility issues with my PC? Do you all have recommendations for which one I should buy? Thanks in advance!
