[Solved] Asus R556L Laptop Battery: Green Cell vs RDY - Which is Better? (PLN 175 vs PLN 160)

Hello, which battery will be better for the asus r556l laptop? or maybe you can recommend something else?
Grenn Cell costs PLN 175 and RDY 160

I recommend Green Cell and I have not been disappointed with this company yet.

The battery replaced with a green cell, use it normally, i.e. from 100% to 5-10%, as depending on the manufacturer, or to use any other proportions at the beginning? Pay attention to any settings in the system after replacement to extend its life and operating time?

I set the power options to be balanced (recommended).

I use such batteries normally, if the laptop has a charging threshold lock, in the case of frequent work "on the cable" I usually drop the limit a bit, e.g. up to 80%, but this Asus does not seem to have this possibility. I avoid recharging the battery after it is not fully discharged, even though manufacturers say it does not affect the battery life in any way. If the laptop works frequently on the cable, then at least once every 10-14 days I try to do a full cycle on the battery, it applies to laptops where the charge cannot be limited to below 100%. I load when it tells to charge, but if it reaches 3% and turns off by itself, there is no tragedy. I charge a discharged battery rather quickly, usually on the same day, when I can't do it later, but rather try not to let it stay discharged for a long time. I avoid deep discharge. A good battery should last quite a long time with such treatment. GC in the most economical variants withstand 2-3 years for me more or less with reasonable treatment. I don't know about their "premium" links, I haven't had them yet.

I have a battery in a Lenovo T42, manufactured on 11/2004, has 67% of its factory capacity and holds the laptop for over an hour after 15 years. I operated as I wrote above. The laptop was set most of its life not to start charging when the charge level was higher than 30% (it was running on the power supply then but not charging), but I charged to 95%. The battery has over 800 charging cycles, Sanyo cells. So in the past it was possible to make batteries that could survive a decade and a half, now the technology has moved forward, apparently, because I rarely see five-year-old batteries that could be used reasonably

In order not to assume a new topic of tasks, there is still a question about wi-fi speed. I have a funbox 3.0 with a speed of 300 mb. A phone connected to a 5ghz network gets a speed of about 250 and a laptop with a 2.4 network only 30-40 mb, can this result be improved somehow?

Karta Wi-Fi to Broadcom BCM43142 (b/g/n = Wi-Fi 4), Bluetooth 4.0?

The network card is Qualcomm Atheros AR956x and the bt is Qualcomm Atheros Bluetooth 4.0

Drivers downloaded from Asus R556L website? Insert card configuration settings.

I don't remember where the drivers were downloaded from, they are the most up-to-date according to the system.

Insert all tabs from the properties.

Is it enough or something else to add?

I meant these properties.

ok, I'm already inserting

AdHoc 11n incl. And if there was still a problem, diagnose the card. Is there no problems.

And what speeds should this laptop with wi fi 2.4 reach?
After enabling Ad Hoc, I still have around 40 mbps

And how is the router positioned, how far is it from the router? Your Wi-Fi signal is full on the 2.4GHz band?

Yes, on full, another laptop works the same on a 2.4 ghz network, while on 5 ghz the internet on the phone works at a speed of 250 mb / s

maybe something to play in the funbox settings?

It is always faster at 5GHz than at 2.4GHz. I don't know if there is any possibility of change? But you can check.

it is known that 5ghz will be faster, but I thought that it might be possible to get 80-100 mb / s with the 2.4ghz network

Take a look here.

Ehh okay I don't know what can be done with it, somehow it will survive at this speed in a laptop

According to the specification, this card will allow you to connect up to 150Mbps with a channel width of 40MHz, at 20MHz it will be 72 or 65Mbps. The effective speed obtained on the speed test will be half of this result in good winds (i.e. real 70-80Mbps you will get when establishing a connection of 150Mbps on the 40MHz channel).

You can check that your router has a 40MHz channel on the 2.4GHz band. Alternatively, you can replace the network card with a better one, Asus seems to have not blocked this (but it's worth making sure).

There is a wideband selection in the router options, but I have not noticed any changes.
Is it possible to insert a different network card inside the laptop? If so, what kind of card would it be

All in all, looking at the films from the demolition of this laptop - it is a budget and the manufacturer decided to put only one antenna in the matrix cover. If you wanted to upgrade the internal card, it would be worth adding another antenna in the matrix cover and then replacing the card.

In the current layout, changing the card will not make sense, but it is worth making sure, because there may be different versions of the equipment in these laptops, so I will not stop my head that there is also poverty in my friend's equipment and savings on the level of regretting the second antenna for less than half a dollar ...

Too bad, I see there is no point in playing with it. Thank you for your help
