Coming here is a last resort but I've given up on normal troubleshooting. My work WiFi uses a TP Link mesh system that 1) doesn't work and everything connects to one node in the back and 2) Refuses to cooperate with my laptop. I've tried another OS (Puppy Linux) and changing my IP but the only thing that works is a WIFI dongle that only supports 802.11n which is slow as hell and drops every few minutes, it's just what i had on hand. Is there anything else i could try or should i just bite the bullet and buy a new WiFi card? Mind you, our air space looks like this and Ethernet isn't an option

I'm just purchasing a new Wi-Fi card and upgrading to Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5. This discussion is no longer relevant.
