Installation is extremely easy, and the instructions in the box are very clear. You need both a free PCIe port and a free USB header on your motherboard -- without a free USB header, you will only get WiFi and not Bluetooth. WiFi range and speeds are great -- even on the other side of the house, my PC gets over 50% signal strength and I get my full 500Mbps connection speed. Bluetooth works great as well, connects to my headphones with no problems and holds the connection over a decent range. Overall, great upgrade at a decent price if your PC doesn't have WiFi/Bluetooth built-in. Review: Super easy to install and works great - This Wi-Fi card works brilliantly and has given me a fast, stable connection. I had not installed anything like this before, but the setup was straightforward with the help of a quick YouTube video. Once installed, it connected without any issues and has performed reliably ever since. Very pleased with it and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their PC’s Wi-Fi. ## Features - Interface - 32-bit PCI Express/1 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 port - Data Rates - 10/100/1000 Mbps half-duplex/20/200/2000 Mbps full-duplex - Flow control - IEEE 802.3x flow control (full-duplex) - Ethernet Adapter which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u and IEEE 802.3ab specifications. - TIn addition to standard bracket, low-profile bracket is also provided for mini tower computer case ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003CFATNI | | Best Sellers Rank | 770 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 1 in Network Cards | | Box Contents | Gigabit PCI Express Network Adapter TG-3468, Low-profile Bracket, Quick Installation Guide, Resource CD | | Brand | TP-Link | | Brand Name | TP-Link | | Color | Verde Smeraldo | | Colour | Verde Smeraldo | | Compatible Devices | PC, notebook | | Compatible Operating System Family | Windows | | Compatible devices | PC, notebook | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 18,665 Reviews | | Data Link Protocol | 1000BASE-T | | Data Transfer Rate | 10000 Megabits Per Second | | Data link protocol | 1000BASE-T | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 Years | | External Testing Certification | FCC, CE, RoHS, BSMI, VCCI | | Global Trade Identification Number | 06935364001049 | | Hardware Interface | Ethernet | | Hardware interface | Ethernet | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 16L x 2.8W x 13.5H centimetres | | Item Part Number | TG-3468 | | Item Type Name | TP-Link NE000644 TP-Link TG-3468 Gigabit PCI Express Network Card | | Item Weight | 0.22 Pounds | | Manufacturer | TP-Link | | Manufacturer Part Number | PCI-E | | Minimum Required Operating System Version | Windows XP | | Model Number | TG-3468 | | Product Warranty | Default Manufacturer Warranty.

I had not installed anything like this before, but the setup was straightforward with the help of a quick YouTube video. Once installed, it connected without any issues and has performed reliably ever since. Very pleased with it and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their PC’s Wi-Fi. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well built card with noticeably better performance than last generation *by S***D on 18 March 2026* It took a bit of research to make sure this was the right card for my partners PC and a bit of research into how to fit it will also be worthwhile unless you are experienced in replacing and fitting such cards. It will help with understanding the type of fitment used for the Bluetooth connection to the motherboard for example. The card itself feels like a quality item - well finished, no skimping and worth the bit of extra money over the basic ones. It was easy to fit the separate antennae, but do ensure you have enough room/height for them before you start. Performance is really good, a noticeable improvement over the 10 year old card this one replaced. Do watch out for the difference between WiFi 6 and 6E. It transpires our recently procured Sky router only supports the former, so we can’t get the very best out of the new card. One last tip - if you’re on Windows 11, remove any Bluetooth mouse and keyboard from the system before you fit the new card, then re-pair them once it’s in. This does mean that you will need a spare wired set to see you through the install process. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Network Card (TG-3468), PCIE Network Adapter, Network Card, Ethernet Card for PC, Win10/11 supported - TP-Link USB to Ethernet Adapter (UE306), Supports Nintendo Switch, Foldable USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet LAN Network Adapter, Supports Windows, Linux, Apple MacBook OS 10.11 - 12(Driver Required) - TP-Link TL-SG105, 5 Port Gigabit Unmanaged Ethernet Switch, Network Hub, Ethernet Splitter, Plug & Play, Fanless Metal Design, Shielded Ports, Traffic Optimization,Navy Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48395933-tg-3468-gigabit-pci-express-network-adapter-32-bit-pcie](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48395933-tg-3468-gigabit-pci-express-network-adapter-32-bit-pcie) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
