MSI AC905C not working

[TonyTheNain]

I installed the card in my pc and plugged it in using the USB header.

 

Unfortunately, no drivers that I installed for Bluetooth / WiFi works.

 

any idea what I can do next?

Unplug the USB header just have it connected to PCIE and install it using the driver from MSI. I am not sure what that USB is there for but having both USB and PCIE connectivity is interesting.

The USB is for the bluetooth. For whatever reason bluetooth will only work through USB not PCIE. Odd design choice.

Ok so I did that and I still can't connect to WiFi. I don't know if there's something I'm missing

Do you have the antennas attached? I found out the hard way that without the antennas the signal is next to non existent.

Yes they are connected

Is it showing up in Device Manager? If so is it showing any errors?
