Atheros Ar956X Specs Upgrade The Network

Appreciate if you can advise if Atheros AR956x wireless card dont work on 5G network Any recommendation if i need to upgrade the network card.

Thank you. RegardsLeo.

It is more of a wifi card limitation which can be resolved by swapping it for maybe like what you have mentioned the fairly popular 7260 by intel for instance.

Atheros Ar956X Specs Bluetooth Is Integrated

Next up, check if Bluetooth is integrated in the wifi card as well.

If it is, would you be willing to forgo bluetooth functionality Or purchase one with bluetooth and wifi.

Another thing to take note 5GHZ only works close range, if your laptop is inside the room you may not get 5GHZ.

Always assume that wty would be void if any user placement is done Though self replacement isnt that hard.

If you are worried about warranty, set the 2.4G channel width to 40Mhz on your card and router.

Price is below 40.

I got my for tplink ac1200 and connected at 879mbps compare to the laptop wireless at only 72mbps.

It has to be the same level speed to achieve if not will fall below.
