You're looking for affordable USB dongles for both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It's possible to find separate devices for each function without needing a PCIe card, especially if you're budget-conscious. Just check for compatible models at lower price points.

Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are distinct technologies, aside from both being wireless solutions. You can easily connect them to your PC via separate add-in cards or USB adapters.

Do you understand that PCIe cards offer greater reach and stronger signals, do they? I once relied on a USB Bluetooth adapter with limited coverage; it required a clear line of sight. Switching to PCIe kept my headphones working across a brick wall. Also, newer Bluetooth versions are typically available on WiFi cards, while most USB adapters remain outdated. WiFi also delivers superior performance over longer distances.

It’s really simple to obtain a current bt dongle. I bought one yesterday for just $6. These devices are now very common.

The possible range should probably be even smaller than a PCIe WiFi card.

Bluetooth was never designed for extended distances. My USB connection functions adequately for using my headset while moving around my home. I can't walk to the gate of the community, but it wasn't meant for that purpose either.

I was only concerned about staying within the line of sight, but I did have older adapters and no reason to switch since all my PCs had WiFi and Bluetooth was already active. I've only used Bluetooth after LDAC, which demands a very reliable connection to prevent interruptions.
