I have an OMEN Gaming Laptop 16-xf0006nl since January 2024 and I'm facing a lot of lag spike while playing online.
Searching around I found that the cause of all problems may be the WLAN module Realtek 8852CE, i tried with driver updates but nothing so I would like to know what can i do or which WLAN module can I buy to substitute this

Hi @DemosX,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
A higher connection speed lets you send and receive data faster, thus lowering your ping. Conversely, a slower connection speed can result in high ping, which in turn makes lag more noticeable when playing games online.
To determine if you’re getting adequate bandwidth, check out this free site called Speedtest which is run by a network performance company. It lets you test your current ping, download speed, and upload speed. If you are not receiving the speeds that your ISP promised, then you can let them know and ask them to optimize the speeds.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

I have everything updated but these lag spikes still happen, can I change the Realtek WLAN module with the Intel AX211 Wi-Fi 6E Bluetooth 5.3 WLAN M53366-005 present in the Maintenance and Service Guide ? Can this change alter the warranty?
