Questions about this item

What USB port version do I need on my computer for the MSI AX1800 adapter to reach its 1800 Mbps rating?

A USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port is required for full WiFi 6 performance; the adapter also works with USB 2.0 and 1.0 ports at reduced speeds.

Will the adapter connect to my existing 802.11ac router on the 5 GHz band?

Yes, the MSI AX1800 is backwards compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standards and supports 5 GHz connections up to 1201 Mbps on WiFi 6 networks.

How can I confirm the adapter is using WPA3 encryption after setup?

Check the active network security type in Windows 11 or Windows 10 network settings; it will show WPA3 when connected to a compatible WiFi 6 router.
