17 R5, WiFi dropping issue, #2

Question

As shown by many others my wifi for this laptop is constantly dropping. I have updated drivers, reinstalled killer suite, etc. Still no wifi. This happened 1 year into my ownership unfortunately. What alternative wifi card are there that I can purchase?

Disappointed in dell. Expected way more form alienware then poor products.

Go to Your computer and Press the Windows Key + R together on the keyboard Type ncpa.cpl and press Ok. Or you can manually go to Control Panel > Network And Internet> Network & Sharing Center > Change adapter settings> Select your Current WiFi Network Adapter Right Click on it and go to the Properties. Then under the WiFi adapter settings, click on configure Go to the Driver and hit on Update Driver and you may see a new Box with two options Click on Search Automatically for updated Driver Software and get an auto-update You can also manually install the driver if you want to use the 2nd option. For that, you may need to download the wireless driver from the official laptop manufacturer website and then upload it using the second option
