The Wi-Fi card

While the case was open I took a photo of the preinstalled Wi-Fi card.


It is an Intel model 3168NGW and it sits in the M.2 Slot with PCIe x1 lane. You can see the two antennas that clip onto the card.

The technical specifications of the card report that it has a 433 Mbps max speed, dual band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, 802.1ac Wi-Fi certified with a 4.2 Bluetooth version. It is another of those amazing little things with all that in a unit that measures 22mm x 30mm x 2.4mm (Hence the M.2 2230 designation) and weighs in at 2.4 grams.
