Upgrade for HP 2G Broadcom to 5G and Bluetooth
Easy to install and no additional drivers required with Windows 10 Pro

It works, but it did take a little work to make it work
Installed in an HP g6 Pavilion laptop, running the latest Manjaro version of arch Linux. I gave it 4stars out of 5 because I had to enlist the help of some gurus to help figure out how to get it to work. It came down to building a new driver, which ended up being reasonably easy if you know what to do. It gave my old laptop a new life with the ability to operate both 2.4 and 5g wifi and BT. I'm happy and it's nice to have a good grp that could help make it work.

wasn't recognized automatically. gave up after an hour.
Installing in a linux mint system that didn't work with an USB network "card". Fiddling around for an hour trying to get this to work, looking for and finding drivers and such, but gave up after an hour and decided to spend a bit more for an Intel based card - this one is Broadcom based.That one was recognized immediately and without any problems.

Linux support is iffy, and may require installing a driver.
Some laptops, such as the HP Elitebook 8670w will not see the Bluetooth adapter, apparently because they do not implement the USB part of the Half-mini PCIe specification, and that's how the Bluetooth is presented to the laptop.

Improved the wifi on my laptop but the bluetooth drivers are blocked on windows 10
It improved a toshiba c655 from 30mbps download to around 80, but bluetooth is impossible to intall, THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS 10, they provide you with a driver that works nice , but only for wifi. I Considered returning it but the improvements on speed means at least is now a more capable zoom machine

HP G7 A8-4500M
Worked perfectly. After reading some reviews I was skeptical but upon installing it I am 100% satisfied. Big jump in my internet speeds and the blue tooth didn’t even need separate drivers from the win10 existing ones. It took about 2 minutes to install it physically and about 5 min updating the Wi-Fi drivers.Well worth the $9 paid.

Great with Windows Update drivers
Got this as upgrade for a laptop after another model failed. I will say, they link some drivers but they looked sketchy. This laptop has an ethernet port, so I used Windows Update to search for drivers over the net. It found both the wifi and Bluetooth drivers and self installed.And that was it. It immediately worked very well for both wifi and BT, no disconnects. Pulling 150 Mbps near the router and 100 Mbps around the house. Good enough for me!
