Some days ago when I was cleaning the inside of my dell inspirion 5547 i accidentally broke the antenna connector on the NIC card itself. So my card works but it has very low range. Now when I tried to replace that card I found that the model is discontinued and all technical help is also not available. What would I do now? Or suggest me any other model which will be compatible with my laptop, or in any way in which I can change the connector of the NIC

You still can buy a new adapter https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Wireless-AC-3160NGW-802-11ac-5-8Ghz/dp/B00V7ZJGQ6/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=ac+3160&qid=1580553596&sr=8-4 or here: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=ac+3160&_sacat=0
For newer and compatible WiFi cards you should ask the Dell support.
