Wireless AC 7265NGW M.2 Adapter

This Intel 7265NGW module adds Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.0 to laptops with an NGFF M.2 slot. It uses a 2x2 antenna design to reach download speeds up to 867 Mbps on the 802.11 ac standard. The card is supplied new and fits most brands except IBM Lenovo systems.

Suits most NGFF laptops not Lenovo

Builders upgrading a compatible laptop gain dual-band wireless and Bluetooth 4.2 support in one card. The NGFF interface matches the keying found on many modern motherboards. Buyers with IBM Lenovo machines or a different slot type should look elsewhere.

NGFF M.2 interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the NGFF M.2 interface keying on your motherboard. Verify the slot accepts this key before purchase because the card will not work in other M.2 variants. No other specification overrides this physical requirement.

Questions about this item

Does this card need an M.2 NGFF slot with PCIe and USB lanes to work?

Yes, the Intel 7265NGW uses an NGFF M.2 interface that carries both PCIe for Wi-Fi 5 and USB for Bluetooth 4.0; your laptop must expose both on the slot.

Will the 7265NGW coexist with an older 802.11 n router without slowing it down?

The adapter supports 802.11 ac and falls back to earlier standards, so it will connect to an 802.11 n router at the router's maximum rate.

How can I confirm the 2x2 link is running at 867 Mbps after installing the drivers?

Open the wireless adapter status in your OS; a link speed of 867 Mbps indicates the 2x2 Wi-Fi 5 connection is active.
