Introduction
If you are experiencing connectivity issues, such as having trouble connecting to a Wi-Fi network or bluetooth device, replacing the Wi-Fi card may alleviate these issues. The Wi-Fi card is also known as the wireless card and WLAN card, so these terms may be useful to include in searches while looking for a replacement part. Be sure while you are working that both coaxial cables are firmly seated on the Wi-Fi card, as the card will not function without both connections.
Be sure to unplug and completely turn off your device before you start working.
