Compatability AX210 Asus TUF A15 (MediaTek mt7921)

I am currently having problems with the ASUS Tuf A15, which has a MediaTek mt7921 and I would like to replace the WiFi card.

 

I have seen people replace it with a Intel AX210, so that seems to be compatible, however I was wondering if the Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE200 would also work, since I would love to have a card able to use Wi-Fi 7.

 

I am completely new, but it seems to me that it only has a M.2 Key E, while the AX210 has a Key A and Key E, is this a problem, and if so, is there a compatible card with WiFi 7?

 

I don't know much about WiFi Cards, so I included pictures of the port and the current card.

Hello PhGaunt,


Thank you for posting in the community. First, I want to assure you that the Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE200 will be compatible with your laptop in terms of interface type. Since your laptop has an M.2 interface and the Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE200 does not use the Connectivity Integration (CNVi) interface, there should be no compatibility issues.


To give you more information, CNVi is a technology designed to improve wireless connectivity in Intel-based systems. Therefore, the Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE200 will be compatible with your system in terms of interface. However, I highly suggest you contact Asus Support to check your laptop's compatibility with Wi-Fi 7.


For more information about CNVi and integration of new wireless adapter to your system please check this article:

Let me know if you need more clarification on this matter, I would happy to answer them for you.
