Review: Overall quality exceeded my expectations! - I have a home office setup in my garage about 50ft from my WiFi Router that is inside my House. My PC is an HP ProDesk 600 with Windows 10 64bit. My ISP is Spectrum at 200Mbps Download Speed. I originally went with a TP-Link AV600 Powerline Adapter to get an internet signal to my garage. Always assumed a hardwire plugin would be the fastest and surest connection type for my needs. With that setup I had just under 40Mbps D/L. Not very fast but it seemed to work ok but unfortunately would continually lose connection a few times a day and the Powerline adapter would need to be unplugged then plugged back in to reset. I tried different outlets in my garage with similar results. I finally had enough and decided to try this TP-Link AC1300 PCI Express Adapter and all I can say is wow! Took me only 5 minutes to install. I then I installed Broadcom BCM4360 chip Drivers as I heard the drivers from TP-Link website can have issues on some systems. My first speed test showed my speeds increased to around 85Mbps. I was getting one to 2 bars of signal. Since my signal was not consistently great I ordered an Eightwood Dual WIFi Antenna. This has a magnetic base and extends the TP-Link Wifi antenna from my PC to 6.5ft. Once I plugged that in and raised the antenna off the ground as high as I can get. I now am getting 194Mbps! So if you are not in the same room as your router and are not receiving 3 bars. I would recommend to add this antenna extension to get the best signal possible. Made a huge difference for me. The TP-Link AC1300 is now working flawlessly and does not disconnect. Can't believe I am getting this kind of performance from a relatively inexpensive WiFi Card! Review: Good WiFi Card but Can Be Finicky - As a 10+ year IT Professional I have no issues installing cards or dealing with drivers. A lot of people talk about the drivers being a pain but I have tried a few and don't really notice much difference. My desktop is upstairs directly over the router and I get 300up/300down normally on my Gigabit fiber connection. However I suggested this card to my neighbor and it's driven me mad at times working on his. I'm not sure if is card is just iffy or if it's right on the edge of his network and can't decide between the 2.4Ghz or the 5Ghz band but it's just a pain and really inconsistent. Even if I set it to one band or the other it doesn't seem to affect the speeds much. Granted his router is on the other side of the house so that contributes to this but I've also tried a good repeater without much luck. He still gets 100up/100down but sometimes he jumps on and the speeds are horrific and he just needs a restart or to disconnect/reconnect to his network. Overall for the price works great for me. I never though I'd be gaming over wireless. I still get 15-16ms latency and great speeds which blows my mind. Obviously if a lot of streaming is going on in the house it drags those speeds/latency down a bit but overall I really like the look and performance of this card. It's a good value and has been rock solid in my desktop since I purchased it. ## Features - Lightning Fast speed: upgrade your Wi-Fi Card to 1300Mbps Wi-Fi speeds - More stable performance: heat sink technology distributes heat away from core components to improve reliability and performance; Built for high-performance computing, such as online gaming and 4K Ultra HD video streaming - Ultimate range: increased wireless range with 2x external antennas to ensure a greater range of Wi-Fi connection and stability.

I am getting better signal and stability on my phone and laptop. :(** A: Here is a possible solution from the reviews of the next level up card:This review is from: TP-Link AC1900 Wireless Dual Band PCI-Express Adapter with Beamforming Technology (Archer T9E) (Personal Computers) I love the card, no issues and works great on Windows 10. This gave me a tremendous network and internet download speed increase over the internal Broadcom wireless chip on my HP Envy (mfg date Jun'15). My only complaint is that the documentation was insufficient in how to install the drivers, the key solution as follows:1. Install card (the easy part!)2. Download Windows 10 driver from TP-link site (under Support, Archer T9E, Windows 10 driver) -- this is a zipped file and unpacks to a SETUP application file. You run it and it says the driver is installed --- but really nothing happens, DM says there is no driver... Why? Because you MUST DISABLE the existing Network Interface Device first! Once you do this (then reboot) the Setup runs perfectly and all is well. Root Cause: What happens on Windows 10 system is that the new NIC is created as a Network Controller device, not under NETWORK ADAPTER as is should be (note, it didn't do this on my Windows 7 system). Once the existing adapter was disabled, Windows 10 created the new NIC card under Network Adapter and the Setup utility from TP-Link Driver download ran correctly... it took me over an hour to realize this issue, documentation was bare-bones 1-page sheet and didn't say anything about this. More accurate and precise documentation would have avoided this issue and saved me time/frustration. So I knocked off one star for this. **Q: Does this support Miracast?** A: Going back to my previous comment, the TP Link WDN4800 did support Miracast. It’s a smaller card, but it’s what I’m running now. **Q: Is this PCI e x1 or x4?** A: I have it in my x1 slot. **Q: Can bluetooth devices connect to this?** A: No, you would need either a bluetooth dongle/card to perform this function. This card enables your computer to connect to a wireless network. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall quality exceeded my expectations! *by J***4 on October 5, 2019* I have a home office setup in my garage about 50ft from my WiFi Router that is inside my House.

Windows recognized it instantly and I installed the drivers from tp links website. I was getting about 70 mbps when I had my computer wired and now with the wifi card im getting about 50-60 mbps. My laptop, which is probably 3 or 4 years old, gets about 10 mbps. The signal reliability is also great on this wifi card. So far I dont think there has been a single time where my connection has slowed down or cut off. The card picks up both 2.4 and 5g bands perfectly. UPDATE: 2/14/20 This wifi card still works flawlessly, I am still consistently getting about 60 mbps download speeds, which is great considering my router, ISP, and overall home internet setup. I never have dropped internet connections or any other problems. Over the past 8-10 months since I bought this card I have tried a couple cheap ebay bluetooth adapters and one cheap wifi adapter and I have learned my lesson, dont cheap out on these two components. With both bluetooth adapters and wifi adapters, get something from a name brand that has good driver support, like this one. The software support of these adapters is more important than the specs of the device itself (max download speeds, bluetooth range, etc.). ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link AC1300 PCIe WiFi PCIe Card(Archer T6E)- 2.4G/5G Dual Band Wireless PCI Express Adapter, Low Profile, Long Range, Heat Sink Technology, Supports Windows 10/8.1/8/7/XP - AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-core, 12-thread unlocked desktop processor with Wraith Stealth cooler - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/22188660-ac1300-pcie-wifi-pcie-card-archer-t6e-2-4g-5g](https://www.desertcart.us/products/22188660-ac1300-pcie-wifi-pcie-card-archer-t6e-2-4g-5g) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
