   Dear ProHolmes,

Thank you for choosing ASRock.

Z370 Pro4 supports M.2 key E 2230 Wi-Fi/BT module.

AC9462 is CNVio interface type and cannot use at Z370 chipset.

We suggest choosing the PCIe type M.2 Wi-Fi module, like AC9260.

Thank you!
Yours truly,

	The 9462NGW.AC wifi card interfaces to the SoC Wi-Fi: CNVio (Intel propietary bus from the DPHY low power interface) and is only found in the newer Intel mobile chips. You should look for something like an Intel 9260 which supports standard M.2 socket.

	Does this mother board support Intel 9462NGW.AC bluetooth+wifi adapter? As the description on web site says it's not compatible with Intel® CNVi WiFi/BT module. And the manual says that M.2 socket supports type 2230 WiFi/BT module. I got confused if my motherboard will work with this Intel module or not. I've tried to search for M.2 wifi module (without bluetooth) but was unable to fine any in my country.
