1. Virta pois: Shut down your computer completely and disconnect it from all power sources.
2. Sisäisten komponenttien käyttö: Open your laptop or desktop case to access the motherboard. Refer to your computer's service manual for specific instructions on how to do this.
3. Paikanna M.2-paikka: Identify the M.2 slot designated for wireless cards. It typically has a small screw at the end.
4. Poista vanha kortti (jos sovellettavissa): If replacing an existing card, carefully disconnect the antenna cables and remove the retaining screw, then gently slide out the old card.
5. Aseta uusi kortti: Align the Intel Wireless AC 9260 card with the M.2 slot. Gently push the card into the slot at an angle until it is fully seated.
6. Suojattu kortti: Press the card down and secure it with the small screw.
7. Kytke antennit: Carefully connect the antenna cables to the corresponding connectors on the Intel 9260 card. The connectors are very small and require precision.
