You still might have an incompatible router, but more than likely the 7260 will also be problematic with that router - the 7260's biggest issue is working with older routers. Things have improved, but I would say your Broadcom Wifi card has a better chance of being compatible with more routers - as long as those routers have up to date firmware and you find and use the latest driver for your Broadcom Wifi card.

Also that series has been problematic for over a year, with Intel getting bad press about it's inability to make broadly working driver. If you haven't looked, you might be surprised - here is one location that has way too many 2.4ghz radios:Īnd, the Intel 7260 is the default card included on the new G751 series, and it has had more complaints about it than any other single card I have seen.

You can use an Android tool like WifiAnalyzer (several named the same), or a PC program like inSSIDer (3.x free, 4.x paid for) to see what the Wifi landscape looks like near you. Popular center channels for Wifi get overused quickly. Given high density living and the growth of Wifi usage, you might be getting interference from other routers/AP's. You also want to use WPA2/AES encryption for the fastest transfer - 802.11n requires it for greater than 54mb/s connections.

Go to Programs and Features and look for the Wifi driver, and using the name and version number to match downloads, get the newest one you can find at Asus, install it, reboot, and also update the firmware on your Router/AP - go to the vendor site and download from there - onboard update tools on routers don't always find/download the latest available. Qualcomm/Broadcom use a couple of different branches of similarly named drivers. There are also central locations for some categories of hardware components, and there is one for WLAN cards:

The best places to find new drivers is to track what new products Asus releases that use the same hardware components. Asus stops updating a laptop's Download area with new drivers not long after release. Asus does a good job of hiding the newest drivers.
Most often an update to the latest driver will solve incompatibility - as well as can be. STEDMANA, no matter what Wifi card you get, it may be incompatible with some routers/AP's.
I'd much rather have a laptop with a decent WiFi adapter though.ĭoes anyone have any suggestions or advice for disassembly ? At the moment I am using my old GS2, Tethering its connection to the WiFi through to my laptop which is amazing, good old android. I do not want to void the warranty either, but I also read that there are no warranty seals, if I can change the WiFi adapter in less than an hour I'd rathernot take it to a technician seeing as I could do it myself.Įthernet is a last option, I am Boarding and don't want to tinker with their router either as it might not work for everyone.
I have read that the Intel chips are more reliable and flexible with older routers. Now the WiFi card in this works fine with some routers as far as I can remember although It's never had a chance to idle on one though up until now, right now the WiFi I HAVE to use is an older router, all the other devices stay connected all the time, and no one else has problems like me with it. I have the latest drivers, BIOS, and updates and the router has not reached its max wireless capacity. A fresh restart and it works again for a while, disabling and enabling the device in Device manger and WiFi settings sometimes works too. The current WiFi adapter connects to the router with max reception but will only hold a data connection for a few minutes before saying there is limited connectivity, I have a netstat showing a few pings every now and then but terrible bandwidth and instability. I just purchased an (Intel-7260.HMWWB, Wireless Adapter, 867/300Mbps, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth) to replace the Dodgy one, was that a good idea ?. Does anyone here have images of where the WiFi adapter module is located in the G751JM, I have seen disassembly videos on you tube of the G750 but they are a variant design.
