I suggest you read this starting from post no. 259 smile.gif

If you are lazy, I will cut the long story short.
There seems to be multiple causes for the wireless problem in U series. Hardware and drivers.
According to Lenovo (as per the forum), all U series manufactured after 23July2012 should not have hardware issue since the fix was implemented in factory from that date onwards. The problem is how could you be sure the unit that you buy is manufactured after this date? Resellers / Lenovo Malaysia may have some really old (crappy) stocks lying around laugh.gif
On the driver side, apparently Lenovo W8 driver is crap (not only the wireless, but also the power management). If you read the forum, you will find the solution.

Good luck in your adventure laugh.gif
