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

Works great!The instructions are helpful as they walk you through putting card into slot and the QR code gives to a direct link to download 2 drivers from intel.one for WiFi and one for Bluetooth.I also purchased a WiFi antenna kit that had external and internals antennas.Maybe this was overkill for my older tinyPC (Lenovo thinkcentre m900x) but if you was using a usb WiFi/BT adapter ditch it and get one of these!I I definitely looked inside my computer case at the motherboard to ensure I had the right type of Wi-Fi card as there’s, PCI express, E key, A key, A+E key WiFi cards out there. Also make sure your WiFi antennas are the correct type for your WiFi card.

This card appears to be a genuine Intel WiFi plus Bluetooth card.However, I was unable to actually test performance due to BIOS whitelist restrictions and had to return the card.I had purchased this card to update the WiFi and Bluetooth on a somewhat older Lenovo Thinkpad 11e. That computer originally only supported WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.0. This card should have worked if Lenovo didn't intentionally cripple the computer. It turns out that this computer, like many restrict what WiFi cards can be used with the computer by means of a list referred to as a whitelist, or a list of permitted cards. This card didn't exist at the time of manufacture or generation of the BIOS whitelist, so it is not in the list. The result is that the computer will display an 1802 error and refuse to boot. There is no simple way around this. Yes, there are very complex solutions online for modifying the write protected BIOS, but this was beyond what I was going to do to update this older computer.I also had an even older HP computer that I considered upgrading with this card. Some online research showed that HP also has the BIOS whitelist restrictions, at least for the time when that laptop was built.Sadly, I ended up returning the card.While this card electrically would be compatible with the computer, it was BIOS restrictions on the part of Lenovo that intentionally block WiFi upgrades. As written above, HP also cripples the ability to upgrade their laptops. Check whether your computer implements a BIOS whitelist before purchasing this as an upgrade. It may be blocked. Supposedly later computers eliminate this, but I can't confirm that.This card arrived packed in a simple cardboard box. In the box was a plastic holder with the card, a small screwdriver and screws. It likely works great if the computer didn't block it.

Easy install and instantly improved my Wi-Fi speeds.

I was not able to use this product as the write-up was missing what Key size it has. Unlike any other time I did an upgrade, both E and A keys were present so I was able to put into my Thinkpads. In this case the item only comes with an E key. So far I am unable to find a Wifi 7 wireless card with an A key.

This Intel BE200 works well and is a direct replacement for older modules (assuming you have a socket). Not an issue with the card at all, but be prepared to wrestle to reconnect the antenna cables - they are tiny. Again, this not an issue with the card in any way - the cables have always been tiny. The package came with a screwdriver and a couple of screws if you need them. Just to say it, you obviously need a Wi-Fi 7 AP/router - it is backwards compatible. Also, it works with Windows 11, either 23H2 or the preview of 24H2. As always, I would suggest using the latest Intel drivers. Also, don't be concerned if it shows as 3 radios - that is exactly what this is. It works fine.

The INTEL BE200 is still buggy. BE200 still does not get the speeds as advertised of up to 5800 Mbps. I was lucky to get 4200 Mbps on a good day but it changes constantly to lower speeds. The BE211 wifi 6e is still the best when it comes to reliability and connection speed for laptops using Intel 12th and 13th Generation CPU. Operating system Windows 11 Pro. Used on my Dell G15 INTEL 12th Gen CPU Laptop and Hasee Laptop TX8R9 INTEL 13th Gen CPU. Routers ASUS GT-BE98 Pro Quad wifi 7.

Installed in a Asus laptop to replace the existing WiFi 6 card. It was an easy process, although you need to know how to open the case and remove the existing network card. Did not take long and you then go to the Intel website to download the drivers. While it worked out well with Windows 11 23H2, the new version 24H2 is engineered to be more compatible with WiFi 7. This new card has the most recent version of Bluetooth as well.

Installation was a breeze and zero complications. I’ve replace my MSI Z790 Carbon WiFi II motherboard’s WiFi 7 adapter, simply because drivers and initial setup is terrible. By “upgrading” from Qualcomm to Intel I’ve eliminated the issue MSI have caused to us as costumers when set up motherboard for the first time where WiFi adapter is not recognized and the issues when detecting or deleting Bluetooth devices. Like I’ve said, can’t go wrong when choosing these card. Performance is exceptional and installation is a breeze. I can do it with my eyes closed.
