How to REPLACE the WIFI ADAPTER in the Lenovo Legion 5!

This is how you replace the wifi adapter in the Lenovo Legion 5. The card I had previously was the one it came with (Realtek) and it sucked. It kept randomly dropping speeds. I replaced it with the AX210 in this video which has, Bluetooth 5.3, Wifi 6E 6ghz, higher bandwidth, and more! The AX210 is purely amazing.

Thank you very much for watching. This video took a long time to put together and I would appreciate it if you could like and/or subscribe.

This is the nicest video I have ever seen, genuinely

Thank you for this video. It's really annoying that Lenovo decided to use the cheapest, crappy mediatec card in their $2500 gaming laptop so if you want to listen with wireless headphones, good luck also using a wireless mouse. I've bought an AX210 and this video was really helpful and reassuring that I'll be fine switching it myself. In fact, here I go it's currently 4.20pm.

Thank you so much for making this video, I was struggling with bad wifi on my lenovo legion 5 for a long time, tried getting better wifi, new drivers, reinstalling everything but nothing seemed to work, found a reddit post saying the realtek wifi card might be an issue and it really was, thanks to your video i had no problem replacing it with the intel card

Thanks for the help! This works for my Lenovo Legion 5 15IAH7H which was having issues with the AX211 wifi adapter. I bought another Intel AX211NGW Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Card M.2 from Amazon for like $25 as a replacement.
Tip: 3:42 I found that putting the wires on the adapter before inserting the card into the motherboard to be a lot easier. That way, you can place your finger behind the adapter card when pressing the wire leads back into the pins.

Thanks for your video! It helped me repair my WiFi chip in the Legion 5. These antenna cables really are fiddly...

Thanks from chile, I have the same laptop here and I made a good upgrade thanks to you!

Thanks for the video. It helped me replace my Mediatek WiFi that had problems when using WiFi and Blutooth simultaneously with an Intel AX200 (Intel should also be faster, but I'm ok with both cards speed). The problem is solved.

Helpful and did exactly the same !! Now hoping for better and stable network.

I also find it fascinating I cannot work out your age from your voice and your hands, they are both telling me wildly different things. Your voice sounds like you are under 20, and your hands either look like you're in your 40s, or you wash them 15 times a day and don't moisturize them! I subscribed.

Thank you for doing this, keep it up my friend

[drumjunkie]

Great video! The screwdriver that comes with the adapter is that the only tool you need to open and install it? Also, do you think this adapter will work with the legion y545? Cheers!

Hey do you know how to turn on the touchpad in the bios

[andrewbobyjacob]

Is ur new Intel wifi chip compatible with all 2021 legion 5?

[anp]

Thank you for the video, its working on legion 5 pro 16ith6 with ax210. Upgrade from ax201

[otay]

How much did it improve?because I have the same laptop and been having Wi-Fi problems and thought I would try this instead of running a ethernet cord all through my house

[dudidulo]
