M.2 (NGFF) Key A/E/A+E to Mini PCI-E Adapter with FFC Cable

Needed to upgrade my exp gdc beast 8.0 cable to the newer M.2 version. Tried a 8.5 M.2 Version Beast and cable with no luck. Lots of money spent and I couldn't get my GPU to start. Purchased this M.2 (NGFF) Key A/E/A+E to Mini PCI-E Adapter with FFC Cable and installed it. I pluged my old 8.0 beast in with the Mini PCI-E Adapter pluged ito the converter and like majic my gpu fired up and ran like a charm. I guess the Beast 8.5 and M.2 cable is on it's way back. Good thing cause the seller soaked me for it. Picked this converter up for about $45 less. If your exp gdc beast 8.5 M.2 version won't work use the old 8.0 PCI-E cable and dock with this converter. I highly recomend it. comes with 3 FCC cables different lengths and an adapter mount with screws and good instructions. A+++

I think I set up a external gpu with this

English: I couldn’t get much use out of this adapter, as it short-circuited after just a few minutes, burning the connector and the port where the flex cable connects. To be fair, I’m not sure if it was a product defect or my own mistake—maybe I didn’t connect it properly, or perhaps the adapter itself was faulty. While it worked, it did what it was supposed to do, but there are other alternatives out there. Spanish: No pude aprovechar mucho este adaptador, ya que después de unos minutos de uso sufrió un cortocircuito, quemando el conector y la entrada donde se conecta el flex. Sinceramente, no estoy seguro si fue un problema del producto o mío, ya que podría haber sido una mala conexión de mi parte, o simplemente un fallo del adaptador. Mientras funcionó, hizo su trabajo, pero hay otras opciones disponibles en el mercado.

I've tried to use this to adapt a PEAKCan MiniPCI-e card to a single board computer, but the OS would detect it.

Tried using this at work for an atheros wifi chipset. It does NOT register with the OS. I have another version of this product at work, which DOES WORK. I’m wondering if the solder bridges need to enable a config for specific wifi chipsets, any guidance? Any schematics?
