And when I restart or put my pc on sleep the wifi connection was never automatic. I had to turn it of and on again! I guess other PCIe card also works well but I haven't tried them. I just put that card inside my computer then i opened the additional driver menu and enabled the propriatary driver broadcom. Now my card works like a charm. I lost a bit money because I bought the usb wifi for nothing but I am much more happy to save my time and have a pleasant linux user experience.
Besides that there is many different size of PCI slots. Usually the wireless pcie cards have the size x1. My pc does not have x1, but i put the card in a x16 pcie slot and now it's fully compatible. I know I do not answer to the question directely. But I hope that my post will be usefull for some users.
Another gripe: this and all stick-shaped USB adapters jut out of your system's case, where you might accidentally bump them, making them awkward to use in tight spaces. If you'll be installing the WG in a desktop that offers USB ports only on its back panel, you can use the handy USB cable to attach the adapter to your system. Not only does this save you the pain of reaching behind your computer each time you want to connect and disconnect the device, it also lets you adjust the adapter's position to achieve optimal signal strength.
If you don't want the device dangling around, Netgear bundles a plastic cradle for the WG that you can stick on your wall, desk, or elsewhere with the included Velcro tape. A removable cap protects the WG's USB connector, but you'll have to be careful not to lose this tiny detachable piece. After following the WG's clear installation guide, we had the device installed and plugged into our laptop's USB port in a couple of minutes.
We then used Netgear's intuitive wireless utility to take advantage of the adapter's features. Windows Windows. Most Popular. New Releases. Desktop Enhancements. Networking Software.
