But if you're planning to stay in Windows, I don't see it to be an issue as it will support Intel cards without any whitelisting.

The WiFi card on this sucks and you cannot change it to a better one because the BIOS will not allow it. The few allowed ones suck too. Just say no to manufacturers who pull this crap.

That was to point at the antenna issue. It is the same weak link in both Intel and AMD models. The Intel card isn’t bad like the Realtek which is a piece of crap but with this antenna it gives very...

You may be right about the Thinkpad s540 vs Ideapad s540 although the AMD version of the latter has the WiFi problem because of the bad RealTek card. But the whitelisting still exists. Only the...

The hackintosh example was just to respond to your assertion that whitelisting is not an issue in newer Lenovos. This is false. This problem still remains if you want to replace the card for any...

If you don’t believe me, read the comments section of the review you linked yourself! It seems to be a combination of the card and poor antenna on this laptop.That Intel card does not do well...

That Seller does not meet SlickDeal's policy. Also, I think $10 extra is worth for buying it directly from Lenovo than any Third party retailer.

I don't think the model you're referring is same as this model as the poster mentioned that to be purchased on 2014 whereas S540 model was released in 2019. Also, all the posts are dated 2016, long...
