I paired this with NIC to Asus RT-AC66U router. It took some tricks and research to Actually Get the 802.11ac speeds. First, the router channel bandwidth MUST be at 80MHz. 2) The frequency MUST be at 5GHz. 3) the router wireless mode must be at the car, setting it to 'N + AC' for some reason did not work. This now not very intuitive. Finally, (4) the only control channel that worked for me what # 36, the others did not seem to support 80MHz channel bandwidth. After quite a bit of time tuning this, I now have 1.3Gbps WiFi !! WOW! Hopefully the above config will save others time. So, I have clear line of sight to between my station antenna and my router; about 15 meters.
