Yeah I wasn't sure which one to pick when I ordered my x60
I picked the Intel a/b/g card..... which cost extra.

Where can you download the Atheros client for the ThinkPad 11a/b/g/n card? I'd like to try it instead of Access Connections and the Windows client.

It's not officially available, but I tried this download I found and it seems to work better than AC or Windows for me:

http://www.station-drivers.com/telechar ... 2.2.27.exe

I can't seem to find the forum where I originally found the link, but oh well.

Also, you should uninstall AC first because it gets these memory error failures if you install ACU while AC is running.

EDIT:
I guess there was a new release since I got the 4.2.2.27 driver:
ftp://lizzi555.dyndns.org/Download/WLAN ... .0.107.exe

Does this also work for the NoN "N" card? It's Not the Intel, it's the ABG.

I have no idea...I have the Atheros A/B/G. Unless you're having problems, I wouldn't recommend updating to a non-Lenovo driver. You can end up with more problems than it's worth. I always create a new image of my drive before I install non-standard (and even Lenovo standardized drivers).
