    The Intel 5300 wireless card in my SXPS 16 seems to be a piece of crap. It constantly drops the connection with my router and browsing is very slow. I went to the device manager and disabled 802.11n mode because my router is 802.11g, but that didn't help. Has anyone else had problems with this wireless card in their SXPS 16? Does anyone know how to fix these problems?
