Just insulate 54 pin on your new card (you can insulate 54 pin and 56 pin together) using Scotch tape (duct tape). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varunreeves Posted November 26, 2023 Author Share Posted November 26, 2023 Thanks for the quick response. So I assume I have to paste a scotch tape to cover both pins on both sides. But my question is, if I insulate it, that means it gets 0V so wouldn't that disable both wifi and bluetooth? If so why would I do that coz I want to ENABLE both wifi and bluetooth !!!! 4 hours ago, Klem said: Hi!

No, only on one side. Just look on the photo. 19 minutes ago, varunreeves said: f I insulate 19 minutes ago, varunreeves said: if I insulate it, that means it gets 0V so wouldn't that disable both wifi and bluetooth? No, if you isolate it, then there will be a logical 1 at this pin. Just do this and everything will be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the net but bluetooth is still off ! :(. Would I need to reinstall drivers or something. Funny thing is when I change the wifi card bluetooth works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is when I change the wifi card bluetooth works I told you about one of the reasons why bluetooth may not work. If this does not help, then it means that you have some other reason. I don't know which one. Try removing all current bluetooth drivers, then restart laptop, and install a new bluetooth drivers for your new Wi-Fi card. You may need try to install different versions of Bluetooth drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varunreeves Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 Would anyone happen to know compatible BLUETOOTH drivers for my machine and this wifi card with wifi 6E and bluetooth. I tried this driver but it doesn't work. The driver gets me wifi but not bluetooth. : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18649/intel-wireless-bluetooth-for-windows-10-and-windows-11.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
