Excuse me for my slight ignorance. I have a duel band router running a 150mbps cable connection. I have a laptop using a realtek rtl8188ee wireless card. I'm wanting to replace it with an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + BT 4.2 Combo (non-vPro). I have double checked and have confirmed that the Intel replacement is completely compatible with my system. As far as I understand, 1x1 means that it uses 1 antenna. If that is the case, and I install the new Intel card using the 1 antenna that my laptop has, will I still get all the benefits of an AC card? Meaning, will I still be able to connect to both the 2.4 and 5ghz signals? I had someone mentioning that without a 2nd antenna, I would not receive the full benefits of an AC adapter.
