Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz receives very weak wifi signal from router

[pannnyv]

Problem was noticed right when windows was first launched. Only 1 WiFi signal can be found with only 1 bar of strength. However, all my mobile devices and laptops can find all other WiFi in my house with full strength indicator from the same location. Are there any ways to fix this issue?

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz receives very weak WiFi signal from router

Hello, I am having issue like Pannnyv. PC and router are placed in the same room. Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 receive very low strength, there is only one bar indicated. Please be informed, every components of the PC are OEM, windows 10 Pro license.

Any helpful solution?

I returned my laptop because of this. They sent me it back and said they changed component, I suppose this wi-fi card.
But it's same! I installed all the latest updates from GigaByte support page. In a room where every other smartphone and notebook doesn't have problem picking up Wi-Fi this ones connection is unusable. Some inherent problem with AX200, its antenna or what is going on there?

[GLAXDiAN168]

Probably you did not get helpful from Intel Moderator.  There were too much questions from Moderator to determine the root issue, but not the useful solution. I think the root issue is all about the hardware of Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz, not the software. Sound like I am going to return my pc to the shop.
