Huge issue with Acer Swift 5 series. Just bought Swift SF514 54 since February this year, and on the 2nd day while holding the laptop with one hand moving from room to room, the WiFi got disconnected.
I wasn't able to get the WiFi connected and it could not detect any network. Other users of this model also advised that they have similar issue. At Acer Community, many users advised that the WiFi card is not sitting properly and due to the thin design the laptop flex too much.
Even when you put it on your laps to do your work during typing, the WiFi get disconnected.
