The Pro 5 supposedly ships in 10-12 business days as opposed to 3+ months for the normal Legion 5 17" model. I took a shot at this; after-tax total of $1,647.50 for the Pro 5 with:

● AMD® Ryzen™ 7 5800H Processor (3.20 GHz, up to 4.40 GHz Max Boost, 8 Cores, 16 Threads, 16 MB Cache)
● Windows 10 Pro 64 English
● 32 GB DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16 GB)
● 1 TB PCIe SSD
● 1 TB PCIe SSD
● 16.0" WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS, anti-glare with Dolby Vision™, HDR 400, 500 nits, 165Hz
● NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX™ 3070 8GB
● 720p HD
● Array Microphone
● Storm Grey
● Backlit 4 Zone RGB - US English
● Wi-Fi 802.11AX (2 x 2) & Bluetooth® 5.1
● Anodizing
● PC/ABS
● 4 Cell Li-Polymer 80Wh
● 300W AC
● Publication-English
● 1 Year Depot or Carry-in

Fingers crossed to get this laptop at $950 off the retail price!

Anyone else with the Pro having Wifi issues? I cant keep a constant internet connection when I use Wifi. Couldnt even get through initial setup of the machine because it kept loosing internet. I used a local account thinking it was a microsoft issue but once I was running I discovered that everything that needs a steady internet connection doesnt work. Wired ethernet works fine. Can also use USB modem. Wireless I cant. I have 3 other laptops plus many more devices on the wifi that are not having this issue.

Tried to resolve the issue but I havent been able to. Talked to Lenovo support and they want to replace it.

I found some chatter online that the card on these sucks and people are just replacing them with an intel card.

Please let me know if you have any thoughts, comments or suggestions.

After 2 months the last thing I want is to replace it lol.

I opened the machine to see if the antenna wire is loose and someone marked the card with an X with a blue sharpie.
Maybe they mark them as it gets looked over or something but in my world things that get marked with Xs mean they are bad LOL

WiFi cards are cheap and easy to replace. Maybe try ordering one and test to see if solves the issues. I have L5P and am yet to experience any connection dropouts. Sometimes, some devices don't play nice with some routers. I recently changed my router, and for some reason, all three of my TP-Link smart switches stopped working. Tried just about everything including resetting the switch as well as the router, manually adding firewall rules, nothing worked. Even played around with channels and stuff. Had to get a different brand switch and didn't have any issues.

My current setup is unifi.
I have netgear, asus, cisco router/ap I can test with. Thank you for the suggestion.

They approved the replacement. I am suppose to get "shipping information" in 1 to 2 days.
Depending on how that goes, I may end up replacing the card with an intel.

No, Its the whole laptop.

My guess is I wont hear back from them this week and I will have to call them again on Monday. Then they will tell me they cant send me a laptop because they are all out and offer a refund.

I tried different routers/AP and I had the same issue.
I am too stubborn to give up so I decided to go hunting for a solution again.

Came across a different thread ( Lenovo Website) where someone experiencing the same issue found a newer driver that was being used for ASUS computers that are having the same issue.

Downloaded it from the sketchy link posted on the ASUS forum and now wifi works as you would expect.

Actually, I am pretty sure that the rep did not actually look at the details of your order. Its a custom build, which takes months to build. Usually, Lenovo does not do a replacement without getting the original order returned first. If that's the case, they might send you a box to return the old one first and then create the replacement order. They might say it will take a week or two but yeah that not gonna happen.

I didnt post it earlier for two reasons:

1- I wasn't positive this driver is legit. I talked to Lenovo support about it last night and they did say to go ahead and use it. I don't want to feel responsible for anyone screwing up their laptop or data because of this. So use at your own risk. The actual download link to the driver doesnt come from the official Lenovo, ASUS or MediaTek website.

2- I am not familiar with the forum policy for linking to external links.

I apologize in advance if this is not allowed:

You are good, external links are allowed (as long as they aren't affiliate/earning links or obvious troll/hate/NSFW).

thanks for all this info! Repped.

There's an error with your second link. I've fixed it:

I'm not sure if it's the L5Pro but I seem to have weird issues with my internet wifi going fully down whenever I open it and connect it 😬
