Accessing the WiFi module

To reach the WiFi module, begin with un-screwing and removing the back-side case. You should then be able to see the PCB, noticed that the WiFi module is yet to be visible. Gently peel off the yellow tape taping the screen connector at the bottom of the PCB, then remove the screen connector by gently lifting it from the PCB. Unscrew the screws connecting the PCB and the top-side case, you should then be able to completely remove the PCB from the case. Notice that the WiFi module is located on the left side of the PCB of the front side.
