Intel WiFi

SmartMo458

I’m considering buying an Intel WiFi m.2 and was wondering which one is worth it? The intel WiFi 6 (Gig+) or the Intel WiFi Wireless? 
 

Thank You!

Plz quote me for responses.

What is the difference that you're seeing?

 

The AX200 and AX210 are both the latest that Intel has to offer with regards to WiFi 6 and WiFi 6E adapters (respectively). If your computer can support dual-band antennae and the form factor of the card, I'd go with any of the two, especially since these adapters are fairly inexpensive.

 

Upgrade to a WiFi 6 router and you might get a few improvements over previous generations... Not by leaps and bounds when it comes to speed, but improved simultaneous client-to-client communication.

The AX210 seems faster to me even on WiFi 5 although its hard to be sure as its still early days for drivers.

Router:  Intel N100 (pfSense) WiFi6: Zyxel NWA210AX (1.7Gbit peak at 160Mhz)
WiFi5: Ubiquiti NanoHD OpenWRT (~500Mbit at 80Mhz) Switches: Netgear MS510TXUP, MS510TXPP, GS110EMX
ISPs: Zen Full Fibre 900 (~930Mbit down, 115Mbit up) + Three 5G (~800Mbit down, 115Mbit up)
