For those who have already unlocked the BIOS Whitelist and using an AC Modem/Router but still not totally content with their Wifi performance. Why not upgrade to the latest Intel Wireless AC 8265 ? Details of this Wifi card ... https://ark.intel.com/products/94150/Intel-Dual-Band-Wireless-AC-8265 , click Export Specifications for full specs. This card is about stability and MU-MIMO technology for those who play games and BlueTooth 4.2 This Intel AC8265 is only marginally slower than the Atheros Killer AC 1535 + Bluetooth 4.1 but with no connection issues which plagues the Atheros card. This Intel Wireless AC8265 card is therefore the best wireless card currently available on the market. Requirements:- Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 8265 card. http://ebay.eu/2fUR9yu M.2 NGFF to Mini PCI-e mSATA adapter/converter card. http://bit.ly/2yrZgfF 2 x cable converters, IPEX-4 to IPEX . http://bit.ly/2fEiXdr (no soldering required) 1) Firstly, remove the old Y580 Bluetooth module. 2) Go to Intel Driver Download page for PROSet Wirelss and Bluetooth software, download. 3) Connect M.2 NGFF to Mini PCI-e mSATA adapter/converter card to laptop. (Do NOT break off the superfluous parts of the adapter) 4) Connect the Wireless AC 8265 card to the adapter. 5) Connect the 2 x cable converters. (careful with delicate connectors, use heatshrink with connecters, tuck cables beneath end of adapter) 6) Install Drivers. I can confirm it works perfectly with web pages loading distinctly faster/snappier and no experience of any connection lag. Old Y580 Bluetooth card. Connected cables + heatshrink. Completed Upgrade. Device manager and Intel Driver Download.
