    Hi All,

    After repeated attempts of tweaking and trying to boost wifi signal and internet connectivity speeds, I have given up. I own an Asus G50VT-x1 laptop (best buy model) and it came with the Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN adapter.

    Can anyone please suggest an upgrade for me which will be better and compatible with this laptop?

    Also what are other options available like external wifi adapter etc?

    Thanks,
    Suyash

    Since the G50Vt series have a full size wireless card then your best bid is an Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300.
