You will notice a difference after installed.
Give it a try.
Hi, may I know what's your current router model?

And your Wi-Fi USB Adapter is very old. Using old technology. I suggested you to get T4UH.

Thanks.

Mikrotik RB952Ui-5ac2nD - current router which i am using. Wifi card should be better than a wifi usb, no ?

Hi, Archer A9 will have slightly better on 2.4Ghz compare to your current router. But we recommend you to change the adapter to dual band adapter (Ex: T4U) and connect to 5Ghz instead of 2.4Ghz, just change the router will not help much on your case.

Because prior i am eyeing on the archer a6, but saw the price diff is just about rm1xx with the a9. Wifi card would be better than wifi usb if i may ask ?

Archer A9 will have better performance than A6, and with this promo price now, it is really a good buy. However, we don't think you can experience much different if you are not changing your adapter to dual band adapter that can connect to 5Ghz. Yes, to some users experience, PCI-E card can have more stable performance compare to USB connection.

Alright . Thanks for the advice.
