Hello. Probably there are a lot of posts about the same problem, but I am quite tired surfing the net so I am making post for my convenience.
I recently bought this laptop and I encountered few problems.
First my wifi droped every 5-10minutes and stayed disconected for about 2minutes and sometimes was Limited Connectivity. So I disabled BT, but my WiFi still was dying every 5 mins or so the only benefit by disabling BT I got was that all i needed to do was Reconnect and WiFi was back up. Also, internet is much slower than on my other devices.
Windows 8.1
WNA-Qualcomm Atheros AR5BWB222/Latest Drivers.
I have tried everything. From trying to install different drivers to changing power settings.
My rooter is fine, 100% sure.
So the question is, did acer put faulty parts inside quite expensive laptop or is it problem with the drivers?
Is there a fix or should I send computer to warranty? Because it is frustrating, when you can't use features
that laptop was desined for. Plus i am sure, that with WiFi usb adaptor internet would be fine, but what's the point
of occupying usb port when you already have WNA?
And other problem is cracking noice. I am aware that that's hdd, but shouldn't it be less noisy? Or on every laptop it's quite loud?
I am sorry for a quite long post, but i wanted to be specific.
