Hi there, I'm glad you managed to build your first gaming PC successfully using the video. However, you're experiencing an issue with the Wi-Fi connection in your room—it's very weak for your PC while other devices are working fine. You've tried updating the wireless adapter drivers, but that didn't resolve the problem. Your typical Wi-Fi speed in the room is around 27Mbps, and the modem is located far away, though the rest of your setup is functioning properly. Your motherboard is a Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite AX with Wi-Fi 6. Need assistance?

No, I haven't installed the antennas yet.

Also ensure the antenna is positioned freely. Avoid placing the case or obstructing the direct path to the router. For optimal performance, keep both the router and antenna elevated to reduce interference and improve signal strength.

The Wi-Fi chip is built into the motherboard, and no external antennas were given. Would it be wise to purchase one? Yes, though the signal strength remains low.

I didn't have any antennas connected during the configuration. The motherboard case indicates that Wi-Fi 6 is already set up.

They can provide significant assistance. For a single-story home, consider powerline Ethernet as it suits a desktop setup. If it fits your budget and you have enough wall space and ports, it could be a good option.

They should have been included in the box? They’ll end up with the gold little coax devices inspecting the motherboard’s back. Typically found between the rear speakers and under the Ethernet port, as shown in the photo.

Consider purchasing an antenna compatible with your Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite Ax DDR4 motherboard.

Are there any options available? You could search on Amazon or AliExpress for similar products. Make sure to verify whether the connectors are male or female. On your computer’s back, check the ports—look for labels like Wi-Fi 6. On the motherboard near the top, find the antenna connectors; they should have holes or pins in the center. Match them accordingly.
