Took a little assembling out of the box but once it’s plugged in and drivers are installed, it works flawlessly. Used to have my WiFi cutout a few times a day but with this it hasn’t cut out once and I’ve had it for a fair few months now. Easy 5 stars
The Buitrea AX210 Tri-Band 5400Mbps with BT 5.3 Adapter is a really nice product. It installs easily into a PCI slot, with an additional cable to connect to USB 2.0 jumpers on the motherboard for the Bluetooth module. The distance between the PCI connector and the backplate was a few mm too short however, so there is a slight gap between the backplate and the back panel, but it doesn’t affect the functionality of the device.
The card came with a driver CD, but also has an email address included which you can contact to get drivers if you don’t have a CD drive. As it turns out, neither was required in Windows 11, as it immediately detected the correct Intel drivers for the device when I went into Windows Update.
The signal strength on the Wi-Fi is very strong compared to a USB dongle I had been using previously, even despite the fact that the PC is inside an enclosed area of a desk, whereas the USB dongle had been placed on top of the desk via extension cable. I also had no issues connecting to devices over Bluetooth.
This 2.5gbe Ethernet card very much got off on the right foot for me – I’ve reviewed a couple of similar cards now, and this one has a compact design with an attractive but not oversized heatsink, a network wire included (first time I’ve had one of those!), both brackets, a little screwdriver and fitting screws – basically everything you might need to get it installed and up and running.
It came up right away on my PC, but I would recommend that you download the most up to date driver from realtek when you get a chance, as in my earlier tests this did improve performance – because I was using the same computer for this test I was already on the up to date driver.
Running a speed test between two computers it happily hammered away at the full 2.5gb speed you’d expect, and a real world file copy test sustained 245 megabytes per second.
Frankly it’s a little frustrating that it has taken this long for 2.5gb ethernet cards to become mainstream and widely available, but now that cheap 2.5gb switches are also available it’s time to spend the money and upgrade and stop waiting for those big file transfers to complete!
Recommended.
I am really happy with the quality of this WiFi 6E adapter with BT5.3.
It is really easy to install it and easy to install drivers.
The adapter connects fast and the network seems to be stable so far.
The 2 high gain antennas give good wifi range, which is great.
Overall good piece of kit that comes on a good price of 19.90.
Hopefully my review was Helpful for you.
This is a basic card that gives your bargain bare-bones ex-office PC a new lease of life, and can make it ideally suited to light computing in the home environment. Adding Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, it is easy to install, and Windows 11 set it up automatically, while it comes with a disc for other operating systems. For an inexpensive solution, it is hard to beat. The speeds are good and the Bluetooth connection nice and stable. Budget computing done the right way.
Review for AX210 Wifi + Bluetooth card
Its great that it has both Wifi and Bluetooth in one package. I’ve had no issues with connection strength or speed on 2.4 or 5ghz ( I can’t test 6 unfortunately). Easily hitting the max speeds my router supports.
The bluetooth was a touch more difficult to get working but after installing the drivers twice it started to work. The range is better than my previous dongle and seems to be fine going thorugh two thick walls which is enough for me.
Overall pretty decent, no compliants
This is a 2.5Gbps Ethernet card with a low-profile heat sink, PCIe slot compatibility, and comes with a short Ethernet cable.
I really like the following features:
This is a very compact card, and apart from the single PCIe slot inside your computer, it does not take up very much room in the case.
The card is supplied with an alternative back plate for reduced-height PC cases, so you have that option if required. Obviously, some minimal assembly will then be required.
The card is based on the Realtek 8125B chip, which is a standard offering across such high-speed cards from different manufacturers. This means you are getting a reliable piece of the core technology, and this goes for any driver too.
The 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet gives faster data transfer from peer-to-peer or through compatible routers. Of course, if any links in the chain do not support this speed, then the card will not deliver. This is not the fault of the card. For example, you shouldn’t expect any change in data throughput for online gaming as local internet connections don’t support anywhere near the speed delivered by this card. This higher speed comes at a slight cost premium, but it is negligible as the card is relatively inexpensive.
There is nothing to dislike, and the card just works and installs easily and quickly if you have a spare slot to put it in. This is an inexpensive upgrade, provided your LAN supports it.
Installed easily and quickly on a Windows 11 PC.
Connection stable but transfer speed well below stated but that could be the distance from the router. Ideal for basic network access.
The Buitrea Intel dual band wireless-AC7265 PCIe WiFi card with Bluetooth 4.2 is an absolute game-changer for my PC. Installation was a breeze, and it immediately boosted my wireless connectivity on Windows 11. The high-speed performance is outstanding; I’ve noticed faster downloads and lag-free online gaming. The Bluetooth 4.2 feature is a great bonus for connecting my peripherals. This card is a must-have for anyone looking to upgrade their PC’s connectivity. Five stars without a doubt!
