Hi guys,

Can I know where I can service the laptop wifi? Now Wifi performance degraded with distance. Possible antenna connection loosen or time to upgrade the built in card into AC? my current one only wireless N that cannot even detect 5Ghz band.

izit related with wifi channel type or strength..

ac is backwards compatible with b, g and n. This means you can buy an ac-equipped device and it will work just fine with your existing router. Similarly you can upgrade to an ac router and it will work happily with all your existing devices. That said you will need both an 802.11ac router and an ac device to enjoy the standard’s biggest benefits...
