    You are fantastic, Sorin, Sir. I watched your video and fixed my weak to no Wi-Fi signal when my Toshiba Satellite laptop was away from the router. I found that the antenna lead wires to the Wi-Fi card were not connected, which were hidden by black tape and escaped my eyes. I connected them (both of them) and now the signal strength is full when the laptop is away from the router. Your demonstrations are priceless. I have already subscribed to your channel long ago and have clicked "Like". Thanks a lot for your valuable teaching; learning some thing new everyday from your videos. Your videos are entertaining too.

    I was ready to shell out money for a replacement antenna set, but within 3 minutes I switched the cables, booted back my computer, and now I have full connection strength! Thank you!

    Still enjoying, and learning from, your lessons. Last week i actually needed to replace the WIFI-adapter of an Asus laptop. Signal was sometimes weak and intermittant, antennas were ok. First time in years i encountered a defective Wifi adapter. :)

If updating the driver doesn't work or if an updated driver isn't available try replacing the wifi card. Another possibility is the wifi antenna wire is cut where is it routed behind the LCD or along the edge of the LCD housing. Good luck!
