upgrade wireless card?

#1 Post by ktran » Wed Dec 23, 2009 9:03 am

i did some google, i saw some websites says about : IBM/Thinkpad Mini PCI Atheros 5213A 802.11 a/b/g II, which is 108Mbps like this one on ebay

Most WiFi access points will not utilize the "super g" feature in this card. So the maximum may be 54Mb. If it is an AC compatible card, you should be able to use Fn+F5.
