Pros & Cons
Pros
Tf1d is compatible with dell latitude e6530 laptops. Fast delivery and great upgrade for my old thinkpad t420. Installed in a 4 yr old dell xps8700. This is my best performer and main laptop.
Overall, i am very happy with the purchase, which was seamless. I wish to commend a vendor who provides exceptional customer service when the customer is entirely responsible for the problem. Very quick and satisfactory response.
Faster than linksys 5 ghz usb dongle, at about 6 mb/s. Connecting to our router was a snap. It's also nice to be able to use the 5ghz band (via wireless-ac) as the 2. Ghz wifi connects at ac speeds.
Cons
The card has great reviews, but after installing it, i got constant disconnects and corrupted data. No wifi signal on my acer 5253 laptop. Have windows 10 pro installed with all the latest updates and just can't get the wifi to work.
Updating the driver did nothing. Need to reinstall drivers to get bluetooth to work at times. Addendum 3; pulled it, put the old one back, no more bsod.

With the new card am hitting gt80mbps not near the router so i would call it a success
Yet for the wifi improvement its still worth getting this card

Works perfectly on my hp probook 650
With w10 the wifi worked right from the start connected to a 5ghz ac router
Ac7260 got over 200mbs a 10fold improvement

One caveat while windows 10 21h2 provided the software driver to make it work installing an updated driver offered by windows update seems to have slowed the performance of the wifi somewhat for whatever reason thus the 4star rating for wifi signal

Just a note you will have to use windows update or download from intels website the driver software to make the bluetooth work too should you install this card

Bluetooth didnt work on win 10 before

However you have to manually install the intel bt driver and perform a win 10 update manually for it to work

I did download the drivers from intel in anticipation of having them available to get the laptop to work
