https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/Can-I-just-use-the-pci-express-connection/m-p/460259#M13901 <P>I have just bought an Intel Dual Band AC 7260 + Bluetooth. When I tried to install it, I realized that I don`t have a free usb port available on my motherboard. Can I just connect my wireless adapter through the pci express connector? I understand that this usb cable is for bluetooth, but I don`t want to use it anyway. Will my wifi connection fail? I am afraid it interferes with my connection to the web. </P> Thu, 14 Nov 2013 04:39:37 GMT BVare 2013-11-14T04:39:37Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/Can-I-just-use-the-pci-express-connection/m-p/460259#M13901 <P>I have just bought an Intel Dual Band AC 7260 + Bluetooth.
