When Today's society is a society with rapid development of network. The current network status quo is to speed up and then speed up. Since the network speed is increased, it requires that the network equipment in our family should also speed up. Although the home wireless router speed It keeps increasing, but the speed of the wireless network card matching it has not kept up. The R8500 router with the highest speed of 5400Mbps has come out, but the maximum speed of the wireless network card is now up to At 1900Mbps, and as far as I know, there are only two products in total, one is ASUS PCE-AC68 wireless network card, and the other is D-Link, the product that I bring you to evaluate today DWA-192 AC1900 wireless network card.

Appearance

D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 wireless network card packaging box is square, and the whole box is made of black.

D-Link DWA-192AC1900 is a close-up of the four sides of the outer packaging, mainly for the introduction of the product and the related information of the manufacturer.

Open the package and you can see that the D-Link DWA-192AC1900 wireless network card is lying quietly in the anti-collision foam of the packaging box, just like a magic ball.

D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 has only one D-Link LOGO on the front

On the back of D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 is the USB3.0 interface. The other two keys are: the left side of the USB interface is the light button, and the right side of the USB interface is the WPS button

Take D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 out of the box to see its beautiful appearance. D-Link DWA-192 is a USB wireless network card, but its shape is special. The spherical upgrade subverts the shape of the traditional wireless network card. Of course, another purpose of this design is to To meet the layout of the internal antenna, after all, this is an 11ac wireless adapter with a dual frequency rate of 1900Mbps, which supports 3 * 3 MIMO, of which the highest wireless transmission rate is 2.4GHz 600Mbps, while the maximum wireless transmission rate of 5GHz band can reach 1300Mbps.

The family photo of D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 wireless network card, including accessories: one network card host, one USB3.0 data cable, one drive CD, one installation guide, one warranty card and one product toxic substance detection report.

The state after connecting the computer. When the driver is not installed, the wireless network card light is always black. After installation, the light flashes. If you connect to the network, the light is always on (of course, the light can be turned off).

Installation

Drivers must be installed to install new hardware on the PC. D-Link DWA-192 AC1900 is no exception. First put the CD of the product into the PE drive, and then install it. If there is no CD drive, we can go to the official website to download and install the driver.

When installing, please install the software according to your own system. If the computer is a WIN10 system, the author suggests going to the webmaster to download the latest driver. Moreover, if the driver display cannot be installed, please try to use the administrator to click the software to run.

After installation, connect the author's R7000 wireless router

After the network card is successfully connected to the router, the figure shows that the signal and speed are very good.

The details of pinging DNS, router IP, and external network after the connection of the wireless network card are very good.

Signal test

The following figure shows the indoor layout of my home, where point A is the main router, that is, the router tested with D-Link DWA-192 this time, point B is the Xiaomi router R1D, and C, D, E, F, G are the test points respectively.

Point C test diagram shows that the D-Link DWA-192 wireless network card is closest to the R7000 network device, and the speed and signal are very good.

In the test diagram of point D, the distance between the D-Link DWA-192 wireless network card and the network device R7000 is about the same. It is separated by a wall (door). In addition, point B (Xiaomi router) may be related to interference, so the signal and stability are average.

In the test diagram of point E, the distance between the D-Link DWA-192 wireless network card and the network device R7000 is medium. There is no router across the wall (door), so the signal strength is stronger than that of point D.

Point F is separated by a wall, and the signal feels similar to point D

The G point signal is very good. Maybe there is no reason for Fengqiang. The signal and stability are both good. Unfortunately, the F point and G point are basically not all PC connected.

Speed Comparison

Only after comparison can we know how the performance of the product is. Now, the author will test the effect of the wireless network card with a notebook and Thunderbolt download Bora.

Test equipment:

One D-Link DWA-192 wireless network card
