The laptops run Windows. It's not about trust, they just don't work well. They take a long time to connect, particularly after returning from sleep. Many times I have to disconnect and reconnect manually after returning from sleep. I replace them with Intel Wi-Fi ones and it just works. I'd really rather just replace them than face user complaints.
Urgh. Kudos to you, that’s no easy task. And this might explain a lot, I’ve never liked the WiFi experience in windows. I find Linux with IWD to be stable as hell
