FOUND: Reasonably priced Atheros Wireless-N card for a T60

[silvrcloud2003]

Recently acquired a T60 with the Intel 3945ABG wireless card and want to upgrade to the 41u4782 Atheros wireless-N card...Lenovo has discontinued it, there are none listed on eBay right now, and I havent found one under $180 anywhere else online...Anyone know of an outlet for a used one or have one they want to sell?

EDIT: Ended up going with Zender's modded BIOS and an Intel 5300!

Moved to the Marketplace forum, and changed the subject to WTB.

Would also be interested in a 42T0825 or a 42T0827 as they apparently work in a T60 too...

Several on eBay, search with "miniPCIe 802.11n card".
They may perhaps not be Atheros based, but cheap, and should run with Zender's T60 BIOS.

I would rather have a whitelisted card rather than risk bricking the ThinkPad, and it needs to be an Atheros card to get a 300M connection with my DIR-655 router, but thanks for the advice!

Zender's BIOS versions are beyond reproach.
And you'll never get 300M out of your router, those are fantasy figures!
230M is about as good as it may get...

My machine is still under warranty and I'm not going to flash it with a modded BIOS; and after reading the thread it doesnt appear to be easily obtained even if I wanted to flash it.

If anyone can help me locate a whitelisted card, I appreciate the assistance!

Sent Zender a PM yesterday requesting his modded BIOS but still looking for a whitelisted card...
