Hi,
I want faster Wifi on my laptop. Which Wifi card do I need to replace for a Acer Aspire e15 e5-571-58E6? I want to be able to use 200 mbps for download.
Gr. Patrizia.
Is this a good question?

ok, so if you get lets say 210 mbps on a hard wire, youre going to get less than that on wifi. thats just the nature of the beast.
wifi is prone to interference.
what speeds do you get on wifi from your laptop? if its about 20% of wired then youre not going to get much more. and upgrading your wifi card isnt going to do much more for you.

On wifi 50 mbps.
I have another laptop who can receive on wifi 199 mbps.
ive done a bit of digging for a new wifi card and havent found any potential upgrades.
this one might work but id contact the seller and ask

what is your internet speed at?
does your router support higher speeds?

200 mbps from the provider checked with speedtest.net . The modem is able to provide 1000 mbps.

@Patrizia Barberio ok so youre paying for speeds higher than 200mbps?

No. I am paying voor 200 mbps. But my wifi card in my laptop is not able to go that fast. I want to replace the wifi card so my laptop will be able to work with 200 mbps.

that laptop has a 802.11 b/g/n card in there. which it should be capable of speeds higher than 200 mbps.
is your router setup to a higher wifi standard?
how far is your router from the laptop?
have you tried hard wiring up to the router and doing a speed test to make sure you can even get those speeds? just because youre paying for over 200 mbps doesnt mean youll get that. they have a range typically they try to stay in.
so just cuz youre paying for "over 200" doesnt mean youll get much more.
