User questions & answers

Question:	It says hardware interface usb, usb 2.0. is it also compatible with usb
Answer:	this is backward compatible with 802.11g routers.
Question:	Mine failed after 6 weeks. For how long have you had it
Answer:	No, you would need either a bluetooth dongle/card to perform this function. This card enables your computer to connect to a wireless network.
Question:	Would this speed up an old dell desktop with slow built in wifi
Answer:	yes,pci e x1
Question:	Will this work on a Chromebook? Built-in Chromebook wireless is awful
Answer:	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.

Question:	Does it Include Bluetooth
Answer:	The T6E is just wifi, but the Archer TX50E has Bluetooth 5.0 and wifi.
Question:	The driver software downloaded, but it does not detect adapter. green light is on. why not
Answer:	Not enough information. What OS are you running? Specifically, how do you know it doesn't detect adapter? Do you have another wireless adapter installed and enabled, perhaps a (built-in) adapter on the motherboard? If so, you must disable that adapter first before installing the TP-LINK Archer's driver.

Question:	Will this work with a PlayStation
Answer:	I ordered and installed this Intel 9260 vPRO on my Lenovo Yoga 920, I downloaded the driver packages from Intel both for Wi-Fi and Blue Tooth, https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/99445/Intel-Wireless-AC-9260 Intel Wireless AC 9260 Driver date 2/6/2018 Driver version 20.40.0.4 Intel wireless BlueTooth Driver date 2/8/2018 Driver version 20.40.0.3 it works fine, much faster than the original Qualcomm Atheros. Before swapping the card download the intel driver packages so you can install them after you swap out the card. On device manager you can uninstall the Qualcomm Atheros wi-fi and BT then shutdown and swap the card out. Make sure you plug back in both antenna's wires tiny connectors, you may need a magnifying glass to see better. Power up and run the 2 Intel .exe files to install the drivers for Wi-Fi and BT. You will need to couple your Lenovo Pen to the new Blue Tooth. If you use Wireless displays you may need to remove them on the device list and add them back, authorize the connection on your wireless display.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with Windows
Answer:	I don't know but i got rid of the orbis and went to amplifi hd. The orbis automatically update firmware and were nothing but headaches. The amplifi hds work perfectly.
Question:	Is this a good option for the Raspberry Pi B+ model
Answer:	Yes this will work on dsl, however don’t expect good speeds as you are limited by the bandwidth of dsl. As for a modem you will have to ask you isp for a compatible list.
Question:	What is this for? Why would one need it if their laptop already does wifi
Answer:	Both systems are fine for a small office. I have the orbi pro and I installed one for our local Moose Organization. They work great. However, the Orbi wifi 6 utilizes WIFI 6 Technology which is 4x faster. I also believe the Orbi Wifi 6 system has a longer range of coverage for 5000 feet of coverage.
Question:	Does anyone know if this works with ubuntu
Answer:	We use this for our church and it consists of 3 detached buildings. The main building we use streaming, etc. So far so good. The only problem with such distance is if multiple users sign on may freeze.
