In addition to the RT-AC66U router, ASUS has also released the PCE-AC66 and USB-AC53 clients, both capable of 802.11ac speeds.
The dual-band PCE-AC66 offers a PCI Express client card for desktops, with 3 x 3 high-powered transmission. It can sustain 1.3Gbps
in 5GHz and up to 450Mbps in the 2.4GHz band. For easy USB upgrades to 802.11ac, the USB-AC53 compact dongle plugs into any
USB port, with 2 x 2 802.11ac. In 5GHz, the attachment can maintain 867Mbps, while in 2.4GHz it works at 300Mbps, achieving a
total throughput of around 1.3Gbps. The PCE-AC66 and USB-AC53 are enabled by Broadcom’s 5G WiFi chips, and demonstrate ASUS
technology leadership in bringing an 802.11ac ecosystem to consumers.

Pros: SPPPPEEEEEEDDDDD - This unit tied to the RC - AC66U Router is by far the most amazing speed upgrade I have made to my system since Comcast Broadband 10 Years ago...

Cons: People are complaining about it being a BETA setup 802.11ac has not been finalized... SO what Upgrade both and who cares if it takes a firmware upgrade later... I am getting throughput speeds on just MY USB N adaptor that I have never seen before.. and the connection using this PCI-E unit and the router are just absurd!?!!?

Other Thoughts: You will be blown away by the SPEED and Range of this unit tied to a AC1750 Type router.. I recommend the ASUS 66u as does most reviewers on the market today.
