Great card for AC Wireless on your Hackintosh (including how to get the latest Bootcamp drivers for it)
This card requires no extra drivers or wireless utilities to work in OS X (I've used it successfully with Yosemite & El Capitan). In Windows you'll need Apple's BootCamp drivers to get it up and running.In summary - it's a very good, stable card - with no extra configuration needed in OS X. Support from the seller was also very good when I needed it.(EDIT: If you want newer Bootcamp drivers for this card, you can download more recent ones to a USB stick using the instructions below - it assumes you're dual-booting with El Capitan. This gives you more up-to-date drivers than the ones on Apple's web-site:"Switch to OS X. Plug in a flash drive. Format it to MS-DOS (FAT) with Master Boot Record. Open "Boot Camp Assistant.app" (in Utilities Folder). Click continue. Make sure that only the box that says "Download the latest Windows support software from Apple" is ticked. It should detect the flash drive automatically. The software will download. Once it's done, switch back to Windows."You can then find the driver (called BroadcomWirelessWin8x64.exe) in a BootCamp -> Drivers -> Broadcom folder on your USB stick.

Immediately recognized and Wifi works just fine. I had some issues with bluetooth though
Installed in hackintosh running 10.13.2 on a Z97 mobo.Immediately recognized and Wifi works just fine.I had some issues with bluetooth though: there are interferences with Wifi as long as you keep it running on 2,4GHz. And in that case Bluetooth would very hardly connect to any device more than 0.5 meter away. After connecting Wifi to a 5 GHz network, no more problem. I don't expect this to be normal thus the 4/5.So in the end, in addition to usual Wifi/Bluetooth this brought me:- Wifi location for maps- AirDrop- Handoff (everything except SMS forwarding, but because of issues with iMessage)So quite nice for this price. Didn't test sleep as I already avoid sleep because of NVIDIA drivers.

Get this if you're building a hackintosh
This is an excellent piece of kit. Absolutely perfect for use in a hackintosh and I'm confident that it would perform very well in a standard Windows PC as well. I'm considering purchasing a second one just to put in a home server that currently uses a Netgear USB adapter.Speeds are good. Range I can't say, because I can't really test.Compatibility with Mac... top! Supports every Apple-only feature you could mention.I'm using it just fine with a pair of bluetooth speakers.Wish I'd bought this before I bought a TP-Link WDN4800, which worked but was dreadfully slow and had no bluetooth at all. That was an utter waste of money.

DONT BUY THIS!!!
The product does not work as described.Not even the images shown are real.I tried a fresh installation of macOS Sierra and on MacOS High Sierra, not to mention that I also changed different ports on my motherboard and still nothing worked.Wi-Fi and Bluetooth DO NOT WORK out of the box!Please don’t spend your money on this.I’m searching for forums, to see if someone can help me. In three hours I still can’t get anything to work.And no, this is not a defect, the card works perfectly fine on windows, both wi-Fi and Bluetooth.I’m super disappointed and mad.Get your sh*t right and describe your products how they really are.

Mixed bag, no product support, be prepared to tinker and for it not to work OOB
Mixed bag.Purchased this almost a year ago and has been a turbulent ride!It was first used with a hackintosh motherboard GA-Z77X-UD5H (Gigabyte) and seemed to work ok for a short while until the bluetooth stopped working. This could have been due to an macOS update or the card could have developed a fault.I rebuilt the hackintosh this time using the smaller and up-to-date motherboard GA-Z170N-Wi-Fi (Gigabyte) and ordered a replacement card which was sent out. It worked but very inconsistently and caused booting panic issues. I was also have problems with a bluetooth dongle (GBU521) which is widely supported so I figured there must be an issue with my configuration - I contacted Justop for product support but ultimately there was none and they tested the product to make sure it was working then sent it back.The motherboard GA-Z170N-Wi-Fi has a built-in WIFI and bluetooth card which is supposed to support bluetooth but not WIFI - I couldn't get either to work and again I think this was attributing to booting issues.I've since removed the card which seems to have resolved the bluetooth issues for me - both the dongle and this combo card are both delivering consistent functionality for the first time.macOS 10.12.3 SierraWIFI is workingBluetooth is workingAirDrop is workingHandoff is not working (this seems temperamental even with genuine macs so not too disappointed with this)I would say that this card does not offer OOB functionality and like other reviews have pointed out there are other tweaks that need to be made in order not to cause side-effects with the rest of the system. And this is where the low product rating comes in - as mentioned there is just no product support from Justop but I suppose if you're building a hackintosh you are on your own to some degree.

Pretty good device, don't use it too close to wifi routers or anything that could cause interference!!
My PC is only behind me and my bluetooth mouse freezes and bluetooth headphones keep stuttering..... :/UPDATE: My fault, had PC case on top of a server cabinet in my home office, which contained a 2.4GHz / 5GHz router pointing directly above towards PC, this clearly caused a lot of interference, everything is wired in my home office now apart from having some bluetooth devices (i.e. mouse, headphones). Since i don't really use this Wifi and I have other wifi routers around the home / garage I have turned this router off, and my bluetooth now works correctly, so bumping this up to 5 stars from 1 star.
