    You can update BIOS if you haven't done so yet. Also you can re-install(uninstall, restart system and install again) the LAN(wireless) driver. If these don't help then maybe the laptop is compatible with the router.

    Can you try to see, when you turn on the wifi hotspot of your smartphone, whether it will find it?
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    Me too QCA61x4A has difficult detecting 5ghz home WiFi signal but not when cell phones share their 5ghz. Every other device in my house connects with no problems.

  • Have you tried changing to channel 36 on the router?
