Drop-in Dell laptop upgrade
The Intel 3160NGW is a dual-band wireless card built to restore or add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 to compatible Dell Inspiron and Vostro notebooks. It installs directly into the M.2 slot used by the factory module.
Cool, quiet, low draw
The adapter runs on the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands with 802.11ac support and draws minimal power from the laptop bus. No fan or heatsink is required, so it adds no audible noise and has negligible impact on battery life.
Fits select Inspiron and Vostro models
The card targets machines such as the Inspiron 15 5547, 5558, 7559 and Inspiron 17 5758, 5759, 5770 plus Vostro 14 and 15 series. It frees the USB ports otherwise used by external dongles. Builders needing a newer Wi-Fi standard or a non-Dell platform should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
How is the M.2 3160NGW card installed, and which step do people often miss?
Insert the card into the M.2 slot at an angle, press it down, and secure it with the retention screw; the step often missed is connecting the two antenna cables to the gold connectors marked Main and Aux.
What maintenance or replacement will the 3160NGW need later?
The card itself has no moving parts and needs no scheduled maintenance; replacement is only required if the hardware fails or if you need newer Wi-Fi or Bluetooth standards.
What limit appears first during sustained use of the 3160NGW?
Thermal throttling under continuous high-throughput loads is the first limit; the card reduces transmit power to stay within its temperature envelope, lowering sustained throughput.
