Need Wifi card for 390Mb/s

NUFCThomas

Hi, moved into a new student house with my friends. We have virgin 350 vivid wifi which gets around 390Mb/s.

Can anyone recommend a wifi card which will be able to achieve these speeds?

thanks in advance

Which kind of WiFi card are you looking for? Is it for a laptop or desktop? Do you want an internal card or USB dongle?

Desktop and whatever is faster so i'm guessing internal card

Im pretty sure there is one made by ASUS than can achieve up to 500mbps. If not you can buy a dongle quite easily. Sorry im in college right now cant get the link

Something like this TP-Link T9E would do. 400Mbps internet connection and 400Mbps advertised on a Wi-Fi connection aren't quite the same in practice. Especially on the 2.4GHz band, you're very capped in terms of bandwidth.

A little overkill, but it would definitely be able to get the best speeds possible, It is a 4x4 mimo card. I think the S9 I have is 4x4 and I can easily break 650 Mbps on the first floor and still hit 350-450 on the other floors. Then again I have a Gb connecton from my ISP.

Asus' PCE cards are a great budget choice, I personally use an Asus PCE-N15 which is rated for up to 300Mbps speeds and it's been so reliable since the day I got it.

It simply fits into a PCI x1 slot, and once the drivers are downloaded, it's good to go.
The Asus PCE cards have different configurations for different speeds so whichever speed you need, the PCE line has it.
