Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Supports Gigabit WiFi, enabling faster wireless internet speeds for compatible setups
- Designed to interface with the SoC via CNVio, Intel's proprietary low-power interface, optimizing system integration
- Compatible with Windows 10 (64-bit ONLY), Linux (with limited feature support), and Chrome OS
- Features an M.2 2230 form factor, which is a common and compact standard for wireless adapters
- Utilizes a PCI-based host interface for Wi-Fi, integrating efficiently within supporting systems
👎 Cons
- Requires an Intel SoC that supports Connectivity Integration (CNVi), limiting compatibility to specific system architectures
- Not compatible with all operating systems, supporting Windows 10 (64-bit ONLY), Linux (limited features), and Chrome
- If your system does not support CNVi, you would need to use a different adapter like the Intel 9260, which is a significant compatibility hurdle
- The "limited feature support" for Linux could impact performance or functionality for users of that operating system
- Older M.2 2230 boards manufactured before April 2017 might have trace number errors (pins 21 and 23 swapped), requiring careful verification
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary compatibility requirement for the Intel 9560.NGWG.NV WiFi Adapter?
This module must be used with an Intel System on Chip (SoC) that specifically supports Connectivity Integration (CNVi).
What operating systems are supported by this WiFi adapter?
The Intel 9560.NGWG.NV supports Windows 10 (64-bit ONLY), Linux (with limited feature support), and Chrome operating systems.
How does this adapter connect internally to the system?
