Plug and Play 5100 exchanged for the 5300

In my Clevo M721T still had the old Intel WiFi Link 5100 installed. As my routers and access points can in some cases more, I have the card finally exchanged for the 5300, thereby connecting the existing third, previously unused antenna.

My approach:
Search correct drivers and save locally.
Mechanical conversion (without any problems).
Install drivers, enable 40MHz, finished.

Whoever wants to can play on the driver installation, additional software with Intel. I left them off.

First Impression:
I can see the map on and off as usual via the function keys. Now to the TP-Link TL-WDR4300 I 240-300Mbit / s to 2.4 GHz (previously slightly worse) and 5GHz even up to 450 (previously getting worse rather than on 2.4 GHz and also relatively fragile). At 5GHz, I can now for the first time connect deeply decent at the floor. The new map and / or the third antenna produce a significant improvement.

Practice impression:
In the first week I have appointed pushed 50GB files on my NAS. Runs noticeably faster and reliable. No computer crash or disconnect.

For my expectations 5 Stars. I could deduct a half to a full account of the complexity of the Intel driver side, but I am with the final result too happy ;-)
