Simply ask a new question if you would like to start the discussion again.The signal is very weak on my HP notebook and it intermitantely drops out.
The conncetion is fine when pluged into the router via the ethernet cable and the speed is good. I understand the Broadcom BCM43142 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi M.2 Adapter currently installed on my laptop is single band and can only conect to the 2G wifi. Other devices on the network do not have the same disconection problem and have much faster broadband speeds via wifi. You cant turn a 2.4 GHz card into a 5.0 GHz card with a driver update. Broadcom Bcm4313Gn 802.11Bgn 1X1 Wireless Network Adapter Full Model NumberI would need to know the full model number or product number of your g150 notebook, in order to suggest a suitable hardware upgrade if one exists. The product number can be found on the same sticker as the serial number. Broadcom Bcm4313Gn 802.11Bgn 1X1 Wireless Network Adapter Drivers And ImI have updated the drivers and Im still having the same issues. My laptop is an HP Pavilion Notebook - 17-g150na (Energy Star) Product no. I believe that models with the AMD processors and chipsets can only use the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter HP Part 806723-005 Now, here is the problem. It is pretty hard to take your notebook apart to replace the wlan card. See chapter 6 of the service manual. There may only be one wireless antenna present and connected to the Broadcom wireless card, which, IMO is part of the reason you get lousy reception. That is standard though, not that HP forgot to connect a 2nd antenna. In order for the above wireless card to work, your notebook has to have two antenna wires in the wireless card area. Since I dont have your model notebook, or know of anyone that has upgraded the wireless card in that model, I cannot confirm that your notebook has one or two antennas present. All I know is that if it only has one, you would have to take the whole notebook apart including the display panel area in order to properly run a 2nd antenna. Is there anything else I could try without opening up my laptop Do you think a signal booster or a 5G USB adapter (like the one below) would be worth looking into. You may need to have a wireless AC router for the device to work on the 5.0 GHz band, though.
