To keep it simple and short, I ordered this product because it is one of the few wifi cards PCIx1, while the majority turns around the PCIx port, and because it was one of the few (not to say the only one) that has an affordable rate. The card is set up easily recognized by Windows, even if so it works the best is yet to install the drivers provided with. The CD also contains software for managing WiFi networks, but it does add a step for making the connection, I uninstalled. The rates are more than adequate for a card at this price, I personally did not feel any limitation. So very very good.
