The AX200 card is a Form Factors: NGFF M2 2230 A/E key, so if your
current card is a M2 2230 A or E key then the card should fit, and
will very likely work.
What kind of laptop is it and what intel cpu and chipset does it have?
And what is the model of the current wifi card?
Hi Roger.
I'm on a Dell XPS 9550, Intel® Core™ i7-6700HQ.
I have the Dell Wireless 1830. and lspci outputs : Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM43602
802.11ac Wireless

Looking at this site suggests my card is effectively an NGFF M2 A/E.

This laptop also shipped with 2 other options of cards:
The Intel Wireless 7260 and the Killer Wireless N1535
(https://www.parts-people.com/index.php?action=category&id=143&sub...),
so those would be a sure bet.
Are you suggesting I get the AX200? Any other suggestions?
I'm not looking to get the most powerful card on the market, just something decent
that is a bit more up to date. Maybe something refurbished I can find on parts-people.com
?
thanks again.
