30 Mbps with Linux.įor a more distant Access Point speeds were around 30Mbps. With the original Centrino Wireless-N adapter I would get:ĥ0-80 Mbps connecting to nearby (10 ft) Access Point using Windows. Probably not the greatest but pretty much around where I wanted them to be. So I received and installed the new Intel 7260 Wireless-AC controller.ĭrivers were found and installed automagically by Windows and Linux. I haven't used either of these, but IMHO worth a look too:ĪSUS USB-AC68 = AC1900, USB3, usually connected via a cable. Also if you only talk to the Internet you probably don't need any more speed than your Internet connection. if something connects to your router by Ethernet. Speeds like AC3200 can be pointless as they may not be able to get anywhere further at that speed, e.g. I reckon AC1800 is about Gigabit Ethernet speed and IMHO well worth having, however that's only useful if you have something to talk to at that speed. Although the speed you get also depends on what's at the other end of the Wireless link. If it works well for you that's fine, but I'd always recommend using a PCIe wireless adaptor if possible as the performance and stability are usually a lot better than USB (where the device can be at the end of a long series of hubs, most on the motherboard, and having many other devices in the same tree).Īlso a quick comment on 802.11ac - note the key parameter is often skipped, which is the speed, in this case AC600.
