If you follow the BGR Deals team, you’ve seen dozens of killer sales come and go on lightning fast wireless routers for your home. Odds are good that you’ve even picked on up for yourself in an effort to speed up your home internet connection. You will have noticed the difference on your newer mobile devices right away, but for some reason your old PC still crawls, right?

Don’t worry, you didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just that your old computer doesn’t support newer wireless AC technology, which is capable of data speeds as fast as 1Gbps. If you want to speed up your web browsing in just a few minutes without having to purchase a new desktop, check out Amazon’s sale on the D-Link Systems AC1200 Wi-Fi PCI Express Adapter.

Some key details:

  • Ultra-fast AC1200 Wi-Fi speeds
  • Dual Band (5GHz and 2.4GHz) for optimal performance
  • Upgrade your desktop PC and connect to your network without messy Ethernet cables
  • Two 4.5dbi external dipole antennas for optimal coverage and performance
  • Backward compatible to your existing Wi-Fi network

The D-Link Systems AC1200 Wi-Fi PCI Express Adapter has a list price of $70, but this week it’s on sale for $39.99 with free Prime shipping.
