Hello,
So I bought a new badass router TP-Link Archer VR900v which has amazing speed but unfortunately my Acer Aspire E1-570G bottlenecks it because it only supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. I wonder - would it be possible to install an AC Wi-Fi card on my laptop, or is it soldered to the motherboard? If yes, then which one is the best Wi-Fi AC card out there for a reasonable price? Is the process of replacing a Wi-Fi card difficult, or is it akin to replacing RAM and HDD?
I would prefer not to use USB AC card.

Yes, it's replaceable as long as the AC card has the same form factor as the card you're pulling out. This one wll probably work OK for $10 with free shipping. https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Wireless-Generation-802-11AC-Bluetooth/dp/B071JR1YN5/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1529175936&sr=1-6&keywords=wifi+card+ac+internal
