You probably didn't put the black cover (the emi shield that covers the top area.

Make sure you put it on and there should be a clip at the top part of the cover. You have to put a screw through this clip which will make a ground connection with the wifi antenna and boost your signal

Maybe you forgot the tiny metal washer. It's important for wifi and GPS signals.
