Posted: Sat Feb 06, 2010 1:07 pm
Does anyone know if Lenovo has a replacement Wi_Fi card for a T60P that would have b,g and n mode? Mine has only b,g and to use N I have to plug in a PC card.

The recommended WLAN-N card according to the HMM would be: ThinkPad 11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Express Adapter - FRU: 42T0825/42T0827/42T0829/42T08231 (model type dependent).

Do you know if the BIOS will allow this change? I know that in the past, sometimes, they had the BIOS check for configuration and if the part is not in the list it will flag an error.

You can get a hacked BIOS from forum member Zender.

Why would you need a hacked BIOS for a card that is compatible with a T60? The parts mentioned by Peak2Peak are for a T60 machine.
