Thanks for the guide Lawrence, can I ask what card you replaced the stock one with?

Lawrence Lam - Sep 10, 2021

I reccomend using the Wireless AC 8265 with bluetooth. There is the one I bought:

Intel Dual Band Wireless-Ac 8265… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MZA1AB2?ref…

Hope it goes well for you, it should fix all the ping spikes and unstable internet from the stock lenovo wifi chip.

Thanks for the recommendation I originally went with the 9560.NGWG.NV but It was not an improvement, in fact it might be worse. So I will try the 8265.
