Hey there, just built my PC a few weeks back and installed the PCIE Wi-Fi card. Now I’m finding myself having to re-seat the card and restart the system every time I boot up to connect via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Anyone experienced with this problem? Do you have any tips on how to fix it? Thanks a bunch!

This shouldn't occur. Inspect your contact points on the TP link. Consider cleaning or brushing the PCIE slot with a toothbrush or similar tool to ensure no dust or hair is blocking it. If the problem persists, try a different Wi-Fi card and see if that resolves the issue. You might need to switch to USB Wi-Fi if the problem continues.
