ASUS USB-AX57 Nano Wi-Fi adapter

SKU CH-XF88-A8524 MPN USB-AX57 Nano

A compact USB WiFi 6 adapter adding dual-band AX1800 wireless with WPA3 security to Windows 10 or 11 PCs

  • Compact nano design fits any USB port without blocking neighbours
  • Upgrade to WiFi 6 via USB for 802.11ax performance
  • OFDMA and MU-MIMO boost efficiency in crowded networks
  • WPA3 support strengthens wireless security and authentication
  • Dual-band 5 GHz band enables smooth 4K streaming and low-latency gaming

Nano USB Wi-Fi 6 adapter

The ASUS USB-AX57 Nano is a compact USB wireless adapter that adds WiFi 6 support to a Windows 10 or 11 desktop or laptop. It targets users who need a simple, portable way to upgrade older hardware to the 802.11ax standard without opening a case or fitting a PCIe card.

Plug-and-play installation

Driver installation is handled automatically by Windows 10 and 11, so the adapter works moments after insertion. The nano form factor leaves almost no protrusion, which avoids accidental knocks but also means there is no external antenna to reposition for a stronger signal in difficult locations.

Dual-band AX1800 performance

The adapter delivers AX1800 dual-band throughput, using the 5 GHz band for 4K UHD streaming and low-latency gaming. In dense environments OFDMA, MU-MIMO and BSS Coloring maintain efficiency, while WPA3 provides stronger authentication. Buyers needing higher throughput than AX1800 or a second radio for simultaneous tri-band operation will need a different class of adapter.
