We found installation and setup of the ASUS PCE-AC66 to take just 5-10 minutes and then we were experiencing improved WiFi performance… now we know why ASUS uses the…FAST EASY STABLE as a tag line for this product! The ability to increase or decrease the power for the antenna with the included software is a nice touch and gives you control over how your wireless network is setup. We highly recommend using 802.11ac on the 5GHz band if you can afford it as the performance is far better than anything you've used before on 802.11n powered networks or older.
it is by far the fastest peripheral we have found and has become a key part of our wireless test equipment. Furthermore it is currently the only wireless adapter available that can take advantage of the significantly faster 802.11n speeds delivered by Broadcom’s Turbo QAM technology. When combined with its reasonable price tag its target audience should consider it indispensable.
A networks card in top class which also gives impressive speeds in the N-networks
The result was impressive
Top quality wireless adapter with impressive speeds even in n-standard networks.
Together, the ASUS PCE-AC66 Wi-Fi adapter and the ASUS RT-AC66U router can help expand the boundaries of your home or office network. The speed of wireless data transmission is astounding

World's fastest 5G Wi-Fi

The ASUS PCE-AC66 is a new 802.11ac Wi-Fi PCI Express adapter which upgrades your desktop from tangle-some Ethernet cables to carefree industry-leading 802.11ac at up to 1.3Gbps. Plus, the stylish external magnetized antenna base gives you more flexibility in adjusting antenna placement to get the best signal reception quality possible

Fastest Wi-Fi standard: 802.11ac

The PCE-AC66 uses Broadcom’s new 5th generation Wi-Fi 802.11ac chipset to reach speeds of up to 1.3Gbps through the 5GHz band, which is three times faster than 802.11n Wi-Fi. At the same time, it maintains full backward compatibility with all previous Wi-Fi protocols, providing high performance two-way transmission while ensuring a smooth transition to 802.11ac and seamless interconnection with existing devices.

No more dead zones with 150% the coverage!

Powerful two-way transmission and a signal-boosting high-gain design give the PCE-AC66 improved two-way transmission that extends Wi-Fi range and coverage by up to 150% compared to generic client devices. This extended reach means the elimination of dead spots at any location, offering fast and uninterrupted HD streaming and smooth multiplayer gaming wherever you may be.

Instant Wi-Fi upgrade for desktops

With its PCI Express interface, the PCE-AC66 plugs into any motherboard to give your desktop an instant 802.11ac Wi-Fi upgrade, with access to speeds of up to 1.3Gbps. As it connects directly to the motherboard, there are no messy cables to clutter your computing environment, and no dedicated power supply is required.

Flexible extended antenna placement

The three detachable antennas of the PCE-AC66 can be placed remotely via bundled extension cables. A magnetized stand also comes in the box, which can easily attach to various surfaces for more placement options. By making the antennas mobile, the design offers more flexibility in choosing locations for better signal reception and quality.

Stylish Aluminum heasink handles heat for extra stability

The added heatsink uses highly-conductive aluminum to remove heat from the chipset, ensuring greater reliability for non-stop operation. Lower temperatures translate into a more stable device in all climate conditions, even during hot summers, and greater stability means more consistent connectivity and longer product lifespan. Plus, the heatsink has been crafted for a stylish look, once more showing ASUS always goes beyond the spec.
