MSI Herald-BE NCM865 WI-FI 7 (Wi-Fi 7, 802.11BE, Bluetooth 5.4, PCIe, Multi-Link Operation Technology, External Antenna)

The Wi-Fi 7 doesn't work yet because Windows has not approved it yet. Supposedly 24H2 version of windows. But this does install on an AMD system. I have it in a Lenovo Yoga laptop and working correctly. I didn't post speed/links because they won't be valid until Windows updates to support Wi-Fi 7. Otherwise its just wifi 6E speedsd. It doesn't have any issues saturating my 1.2gig connection over wifi if I'm halfway close so that's a good sign.Again, it booted and installed for those with AMD systems. I did shuck it and stuck the old Intel AX210 in the other housing and that works. Shucking it was the only way to get this card right now since you can't buy it by itself.Pro's: Works with AMD!, easy to install, wifi 7Con's: Windows isn't updated yet to support wifi 7. It's coming, though.Overall, this is a solid deal if you want a wifi 7 card installed in a PC or a laptop that is AMD based. If you're willing to shuck it from the drive. Easy enough to do, you get a pretty solid card/antenna to go with it. I've got it connected to an Orbi RBE973S and its blazing fast. I can't wait to see what it can do when 7 is enabled on windows.

We've decent UTP ethernet throughout our house - it just yielded a reliable 950 Mbps both up and down on Google Speedtest.Installed the MSI Herald MCM865 into a PCIe slot, disconnected the UTP cable, and joined the MSI to our local WiFi 7 router's RF network - yielding the rather startling 1650Mbps Download & 1795Mbps upload speeds on our primary workstation - with the limiting factor being other users on the network consuming roughly 12% of the available bandwidth.We've been using this adapter for a month now & it's been utterly reliable, essentially saturating our MetroNet's available bandwidth, while peacefully coexisting with other network users. Considering this adapter's low cost (A $50 budget should cover you), relatively painless install, and the significant boost it gives your PC's performance, it's easy to recommend it as an effective way to give your PC some network steroids.

I purchased this card just to strip the wireless controller from it for a laptop. If you aren't aware, most wifi cards like this are just pcie carrier boards with the actual wifi card slotted on it. At the time I purchased it, there was not any options for AMD systems in regards to Wifi 7. I can't speak on using it in its natural state, but it has been perfect in my laptop. Great signal, fast when on my home Wifi 7 setup. Happy with my purchase.

Bought this to replace an ailing old MSI PCIe x1 adapter that has seen a lot of service with several Intel WiFi card upgrades.There was a BE200 in it as of this morning that had BT issues and signal drops.Before you Install this adapter download the drivers for WiFi and BT from MSI and unpack the zip folder to a new folder.The drivers from MSI have an exe file that makes installation easy.After installing them and the WiFi adapter is securely inserted in an empty PCIe slot on your motherboard and working you can install newer drivers that can be found on the station-drivers site .For BT you'll need to attach the included 9 pin female to female USB 2.0 cable to the adapter and to a USB 2.0 9 pin male connector on the motherboard.I have a strong WiFi signal going though 2 sheet rock walls and 30' from the WiFi 7 router.The signal strength is on par with my Intel BE200.I believe you can swap the Qualcomm Fast Connect 7800 WiFi card in the MSI Herald with an Intel BE200 later if you so desire but with the proper Intel drivers installed.There's a lot of junk adapters for sale on Amazon and other sellers;this one works as it should.

This is a solid Wi-Fi Card

I loved that I was able to receive quick speeds. Went from 140mbps to 1100mbps. Only downside was that I had trouble keeping a connection, as the internet would disconnect every 5 minutes. I tried a network reset, router restart, and cmd commands, but nothing seemed to fix the connectivity issue
