Lenovo ThinkPad P52s WiFi Card Replacement

Introducción

The WiFi card that ships with the P52s doesn't support the newer 802.11ax WiFi 6 standard, so an upgrade would make sense for faster connectivity.

The A-key M.2 slot should support most modern WiFi cards, as long as they are PCIe (like the AX200) and not CNVi (like the AX201).
