I'm trying to find out if wifi adapter in this laptop is replaceable, and if so which intel adapter would be best.
This realtek is very unstable and it drives me mad.
I know that intel adapters are more reliable just wanted to know which would be suitable

The series supports (as shown on page 1 of the manual)
- Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 ax 2×2 + Bluetooth® 5.0 MU-MIMO M.2 2230 non-vPro® 160 MHz PCI-e+USB WW WLAN module with 2 antennas
- Realtek ac 2×2 + Bluetooth 5.0 M.2 2230 PCI-e+USB WW WLAN module
- Realtek 8852AE Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.2 M.2 2230 PCI-e+USB WW WLAN module
You can use other Intel Wifi 6 but it is much safer to use the one on the above list. Manual also shows you how to replace on page 38,
Regards.
