I have this laptop with a Realtek 2.4Ghz M2 card.   I purchased the Intel 3168 which the manual says is compatible.  When I opened the laptop, the Realtek had one antenna wire connected to the lower left connection.  I put in the new card and it could barely find a 2.4Ghz network standing next to the AP.  Also the 5Ghz wouldn't show up until I stood next to the AP.  Do these cards require two antenna connections, one for 2.4 and one for 5?  If so, does this laptop have two antennas and is hiding a wire to it somewhere?

 

Thanks,

 

Patrick
