4. Aratohu Whakauru
4.1 Nga Tirohanga i mua i te whakaurunga
- Hototahi: Verify that your laptop or desktop motherboard has an available M.2 slot (E-key or A-E key compatible) for network adapters.
- BIOS Whitelist: Some older laptops may have a BIOS whitelist that prevents non-approved Wi-Fi cards from functioning. Check your device manufacturer's documentation if you encounter issues.
- Antennas: Ensure your device has compatible antenna cables for connection to the new network adapter.
4.2 Tāutanga Tinana
- Weto Whakakore: Shut down your computer completely and disconnect it from all power sources.
- Whakauru atu ki ngā Wāhanga ā-Roto: Open your laptop or desktop case to access the motherboard. Refer to your computer's service manual for specific instructions on how to do this.
- Kimihia M.2 Slot: Identify the M.2 slot designated for wireless cards. It typically has a small screw at the end.
- Tango Kari Tawhito (mehemea e tika ana): If replacing an existing card, carefully disconnect the antenna cables and remove the retaining screw, then gently slide out the old card.
- Insert New Card: Align the Intel Wireless AC 9260 card with the M.2 slot. Gently push the card into the slot at an angle until it is fully seated.
- Kāri Haumaru: Press the card down and secure it with the small screw.
- Tūhono Antenna: Carefully connect the antenna cables to the corresponding connectors on the Intel 9260 card. The connectors are very small and require precision.
