Acer Apire: E1-571-33124G50Mnks Internet terrible after reinstalling?

mcmyst3r

I have just bought a new hard drive for my laptop and installed windows and all the required drivers. For some reason the internet on the computer is terrible. The internet bar is normally 1-2 bars and continuously goes limited and continuously kicks me from online games. All other devices including my second laptop get a perfect connection to the internet. What could be the problem?

I stuck the aerials up and the connection seems better.

Any chance you loosened one of the antenna wires when swapping the HDs?

Im not sure, how do i check?

Same process as you followed to do the HD. beteen the drive and the memory is where the wireless module sits, IIRC. There should be two wires connected to the module with tiny little right angle connectors. Black wire on the upper connector, white on the lower with the drive to your left and memory to your right.

They look fine but i just relised, as i have no screen it is just connected to my tv i have all the cords haning out i relised the black and white ones are the ones you are talking aboit. Do you think that having them hanging out is breaking the connection? I sat them up high and its not helping. Do they need to be on a certain position or something?
