WiFi 7 Wireless Card Intel BE200 NGW, Bluetooth 5.4, 5800Mbps M.2/NGFF Network Support Windows 10/11 (64bit), Linux, Not Support AMD, Only Supports Intel 12th Generation and Above CPUs.

After issues with a TP-Link TBE9300 (MediaTek WiFi 7 adapter, which I am returning), I switched to an Intel BE200, and the difference was immediate. Instead of buying another full PCIe card, I reused my existing Intel AX210 PCIe adapter and simply swapped in the BE200 M.2 module. That made the upgrade inexpensive and straightforward. Many desktop WiFi PCIe cards are just adapters for an M.2 (E-key) wireless module, so you may not need to replace the entire card. In my case, I reused the PCIe adapter from my Intel AX210 and replaced only the module with the BE200. This worked perfectly and saved me from buying another full adapter. Before upgrading, make sure your PCIe adapter uses an M.2 E-key module (not soldered), has antenna leads (U.FL / IPEX connectors), and that your system supports the card. The BE200 requires Windows 11. For laptops, make sure you also have an M.2 E-key slot and are running Windows 11. Test setup: Intel i9-12900K desktop, Windows 11, Ubiquiti WiFi 6E / WiFi 7 access point, AT&T multi-gig fiber, approximately 15–20 feet from the AP through a hallway, with an external elevated antenna. Latency and stability were a major improvement. At idle, latency averaged around 2 ms and was very stable. Under load, latency averaged around 7 ms with occasional spikes up to about 113 ms, which is expected on high-speed WiFi without traffic shaping. There was no packet loss. Latency is predictable and stable when the connection is not saturated. Bluetooth stability was one of the biggest differences. With the previous MediaTek-based adapter, I experienced frequent disconnects and unstable behavior using Windows Phone Link. With the Intel BE200, Bluetooth has been completely stable and Phone Link works reliably with no disconnect issues. This alone made the upgrade worthwhile. The TP-Link TBE9300 (MediaTek) showed idle latency spikes, occasional packet loss, unstable Bluetooth behavior, and limited driver support. The Intel BE200 resolved all of these issues. Driver support is also much better. Intel drivers installed cleanly and have been stable. On Linux, current kernels already include support for Intel wireless hardware, so there is no need for third-party drivers or manual workarounds. If you are upgrading to WiFi 7, you may not need a new PCIe card. If your adapter supports M.2 modules, you can simply swap the module. The Intel BE200 provides stable performance, reliable Bluetooth, predictable latency, and strong throughput. In the same system and network environment, the Intel BE200 behaved consistently and predictably, while the MediaTek-based card did not. 5/5 — highly recommended.

Love this card. A replacement video was online for my Lenovo. It was easy to install - mind you need small screwdriver. More importantly, it fixed the problem I had caused by a Microsoft update mis-match that reduced its function with hic-ups frequently. I replaced a Qualcomm board. This is notification that it does work on a Lenovo Model S349-15API and boosted my speed as well. Thanks Intel.

I purchased the Intel Wi-Fi card AX210NGW to upgrade my 2014 Dell All-in-One Desktop Inspire 23 5348. Previously, I upgraded the system by replacing the HDD with an SSD and increasing the memory to 16GB, which made it reasonably usable. While looking for one final upgrade, I noticed that the built-in Wi-Fi card was still Wi-Fi 5, an older standard. I hoped that switching to Wi-Fi 6E would improve my network speed. Before replacing the Wi-Fi card, I read that it’s best to download drivers from Intel or Dell’s website to avoid losing connectivity, so I downloaded them in advance. The AX210NGW was compatible, so I removed the original Wi-Fi card and disconnected the antenna cables. I inserted the new Wi-Fi 6E AX210NGW into the connector. Although the shape was slightly different, it fit without any issues. However, I ran into a problem with the antenna cables. I tried to reconnect the white and black cables correctly, but the white one didn’t fit properly. As a temporary solution, I taped it in place. Apparently, some Wi-Fi cards also require new antenna cables for full functionality. Even with the tape, the network is currently working and the card is recognized as Wi-Fi 6E, but the speed isn’t as high as I had expected. To fix this, I ordered a Wi-Fi 6E Antenna IPX MHF4 Tri-Band from Amazon to replace the antenna cables. I’m looking forward to seeing how much the speed improves once the new antennas are installed. One thing to note: my home network still uses Google Wifi, which is Wi-Fi 5. Therefore, even with the AX210NGW, I cannot achieve the full potential of Wi-Fi 6E. Once I successfully replace the antenna cables, I plan to upgrade my home Wi-Fi router to fully take advantage of Wi-Fi 6E. It’s not working perfectly, so I’m giving 3 stars, but this is not the fault of the product. Unfortunately, the cables were not compatible. Update: As of November 15th, 2025, I have installed a Wi-Fi 6E IPX MHF4 tri-band antenna on my PC, which is compatible with the AX210 NGW, and I now use a Nest Wifi Pro 6E at home. The PC is placed in the kitchen, about 20 feet away from the Nest Wifi Pro, so it doesn’t connect to the 6 GHz band. However, the speed is still more than sufficient. My internet speed test results are always between 300 and 600 Mbps. This PC is very old, but the internet connection is very stable, and I can watch YouTube and Netflix without any issues. This is a huge upgrade for a 2014 PC, and I’m really happy to report it! I definitely have to give it 5 stars.

Working great so far. I had to buy this because a refurbished Dell Optiplex 5070 I bought on here did not come with the Wi-fi/BT card as advertised. I bought a "WiFi 6E Antenna Tri-Band 6GHz 5GHz 2.4GHz RP-SMA Male + 10in U.FL MHF4 to RP SMA Female Extension Cable + Computer Back Slot Cover Bracket" to go with it and it's in another room (with the door open) but has practically line of site to my router. It's about 14 or 15 feet away from my Asus RT-AXE7800 and I get great speeds and connection. I have 750Mbps Fiber Optic Internet (Fiber is symmetric and full duplex, but yeah, it gets those speeds up and down and I actually tend to get 788Mbps down/799Mbps up on Ethernet or Wi-Fi) and this card with that antenna is giving me those speeds. The truth is, I use Ethernet BUT I wanted Wi-Fi/Bluetooth for the other Windows features, like Phone Link so I can have my phone linked with the PC and make phone calls, use my phone on the PC, etc. The Bluetooth is great... which, again, I dunno whether to attribute that to the card, the antennas or both, but either way, I'm getting excellent range and performance. It was easy to install and was just plug and play. I did update the drivers with the latest from Intel, but still, it's just compatible if you plug it in and let Windows install the drivers. As long as it doesn't burn out on me down the road, I have zero complaints.

Thanks.

I had problems with the MediaTek wifi card in my Lenovo Legion 5 gen 10 with Linux Mint 22.3. Bluetooth had to be restored after every reboot to work. Wifi worked good. So AI recommend this wifi card in regards of Linux compability and being somewhat future proof. Switching the card whent easy and at first boot wifi and BT worked instantly.

I purchased the Intel AX210 to replace my laptop's Mediatek 7902 Wi-fi adapter. The later was causing me issues on my Linux laptop. Don't get me wrong, the MT7902 was fine on Windows but there were no available drivers for Linux. My troubles evaporated at the moment I plugged in the Intel AX210. It just worked! No driver installation, no setup process, it just works and it does it well. It achieves the promised speeds without problems. The Bluetooth is working well and easy to connect. I highly recommend the Intel AX210. I believe this is one of the best WiFi 6e adapters for this price.

The Intel BE200 upgrade provided a seamless transition from the AX200, with setup being straightforward and effortless. While the performance increase is noticeable, averaging 100-200 Mbps faster, it may not be a drastic improvement in everyday use. (1Gbps Up/Down) However, the adapter still delivers smooth experiences for streaming, downloads, and gaming. If you already have a Wi-Fi 7 router, the BE200 is a reliable and forward-thinking option, but it's essential to have realistic expectations if you're upgrading from a stable AX adapter. NOTE: Have your drivers pre-downloaded before you install this card. My Windows 11 did pick up the card, however it was from an older driver. It's always best to use the latest from Intel.

Very happy with this BE200 card and super fast, wifi6 also works great
