So I haven’t been able to connect to the internet on this thing, and when I troubleshoot it gives me the error message “Realtek RTL8723BS Wireless LAN 802.11n SDIO Network Adapter” is having driver or hardware problems. I already uninstalled and reinstalled the device and the driver. So as a last ditch effort I opened it up to see if I could replace the wireless card, but I can’t find the dang thing. A breakdown of the anatomy of the thing would be helpful. Where is the wireless card in the nextbook flexx 10 so I can order a new one and replace it?
Hi, You’ll probably find that it has no WiFi “card” as such but that it has a WiFi “chip” mounted on the systemboard instead. What is the status of the WLAN adapter in Device Manager? Go to Device Manager > Network Adapters > right click on Realtek WLAN adapter entry > Properties > General tab > Device Status box Did you try the “Troubleshooting” app found in Control Panel? Go to Control Panel > Troubleshooting > Network and Internet > Network Adapter
