Problems with Wifi/Wlan

Many people using the AC100 have reported that they have problems with the stability of Wifi reception. So before you get crasy or smash the AC100 onto the next wall please read this hint: Fixing Wifi on Toshiba AC100 (Google cache for the page in case the original is not accessible) This Wiki still needs better pictures for opening the case, feel free to upload some if you try it.

In short, the article suggests to dismantle the display part of the device and to remove the extra shielding (cut with a sharp knife the shield between the wifi adapter and the LCD).

Reversed polarity of one of the integrated speakers

Shadoweel reports on IRC that he suspects that one of the internal speakers is connected in reverse which makes bass sound even worse (due to cancellation of sound sources being in antiphase) and the stereo effect strange and unimpressive. Trying to mute one of the speakers with a palm should obviously deteriorate the sound while on his device the sound is somewhat improving.
