T21 WiFi Mini PCI card?

#1 Post by TonyH » Fri Feb 24, 2006 10:51 pm

Hi,
Just registered as newbie.
Wondering if it's possible to install Mini PCI WiFi card keeping Ethernet card as well on T21? If it's possible which one should I get?
TIA,
Tony

Can't be done, it's one or the other. Get the 3com xjack b/g wireless card, it retracts flush with the side of the laptop.

I like it because I don't have to remove the card for carrying, I can just retract the antenna. However, I believe that the antenna is slightly weaker than the normal form factor wifi cards. But I've had both kinds and haven't really noticed a difference.
