No wireless signal on HP 250
I have got a HP 250 G4.
In Windows 10, WiFi was working just fine, but now, with Arch Linux, the card doesn't seem to catch signals when I'm more than 3m away from my AccessPoint.
This happens with every Unix I tried so far.
Edit:
I didn't change any hardware.
I didn't modify anything I didn't mention above.

Maybe you accidently removed the antenna when installing another SSD for linux? Just an idea.

What the vendor and model of the wireless adapter?

@davidbaumann The vendor is Broadcom I think. I will report back once I'm home. Previously, Realtec drivers worked.
