My Macbook Air is not connecting with my wifi router
I recently repaired my Macbook Air and now only can connect to my router in one area of the flat. I have two other Router satelites but not able to connect to them. The wifi signal will drop if I move away from one particular area. This only happens to my Macbook Air.

What Mfr and model Orbi router are you using?
Do other devices conenct to the system ok?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
It is the ORBI RBR 20. This Macbook Air is the only that has a problem. I have another Macbook Pro and Ipad all work perfectly.
My macbook air screen was damaged and I replaced it. After replacing it, it only stays connect to the router in my study and the moment I stepped out from the study, it drops.
Had the mac book air connected to Orbi before it was damaged? If, so I would have Apple or a Apple tech look at the mac book air again to ensure its fully working.
