Low latency, quick responce time and fast card, excellent high-quality product
The card was purchased to replace the existing wifi card in my laptop, that only supported up to 802.11n speeds. The product arrived packaged in an antistatic bag along with the installation screws - very thoughtful! Hardware installation is as easy as it is on your specific device, so can't comment on that.
Device drivers could be found on the intel website, and they work out of the box. Wifi works in 802.11ac, bluetooth works as it should, no artifacts noticeable in sound transmission between the card and my bluetooth audio receiver. Wifi speed is very quick, keeping in mind that your antennas will be a limiting factor in signal strength. Overall, the software side of the installation was very easy.
Websites open noticeably faster than on the old n standard card. Connecting to my NAS i'm able to reach over 20 MB (that's megabytes, so over 160 megabits) upload speed at 5 metres from the router. A faster router with a stronger reception would probably result in faster speeds. I don't know the quality of the internal antennas on my ASUS N76 laptop, so I can't comment on that.
I only just installed the product so I can't say for it's longevity, but it seems very promising. Overall I am very satisfied and would recommend it. Just remember, that any speed claims should be taken with a grain of salt as it, again, depends on your specific setup on what speeds you can achieve.
