Could anyone confirm if the wifi+bt card from the title works on combo board?

Bought one everything installs ok. Both bt 4 and wifi are recognized but nothing seems to actually work.
Can't find any wifi networks although my phone finds like 20 around. BT doesn't find anything although my phones find each other.

I think the issue might be that i could find only the OEM version so it didn't come with any antennae. I am also using a thick steel case (HAF) so it migh be shielding it, but then again the router is like 1 foot from the case and i tried getting a bluetooh signal with one of my phones inside the case.

No sure what to do, get a couple of antennae or return the board.

Do you have the wifi and the BT enabled in the BIOS?

I don't remember seeing any option for those in the bios, only lan, audio and graphics i think. Anyway if they were disabled from bios they should have been recognized in win.

LE: Checked, as i recalled, no such options in bios

Having looked at the desktop version of the product it comes with an antenna. Is this the version you are using?

Thank you for the nice post!!

Nope, this one is Link. It's pretty much same thing. The pci-e board acts only as an adaptor. The actual board is the small white thing on that board you posted. I installed it in the half mini pcie slot from the combo board II.
