My laptop is the ASUS X202E. After some research, I've decided to upgrade the wireless card. The wireless card I've been looking at is this one (Intel Network 7260.HMWG WiFi Wireless-AC 7260 H/T Dual Band 2x2 AC+Bluetooth HMC): http://www.amazon.com/Intel-Network-7260-HMWG-Wireless-AC-Bluetooth/dp/B00DMCVKMU

I have a Dual Band Netgear Router. I've never replaced a wireless card before and I'm not sure if there would be any issues but wanted to make sure. Is there a better wireless card you'd recommend? thanks.
 
Solution
Yes it will fit in there, your laptop has the option to use the integrated wifi OR add your own card, a/b/g/n/ac dependant on the PCIe card used
the AC signal is backward compatible with b/g/n too
