Hey there, I heard you're looking to boost your Lenovo Y510p's WiFi speed. It seems the current model only supports 2.4GHz and isn't upgrading easily. After some research, you found a way to install an Intel 7260 chip, which should help. However, since the card is NGW and the laptop uses a HWM slot, it’s unclear if your existing card will still work. Before you start disassembling, check with the seller or manufacturer to confirm compatibility. If unsure, you might need to return the card. Let me know if you want more details!
