Hi,

I'd like to buy a Wireless USB MiniPCI-e card into my X300.

Please help me...

Thanks!

Depending in which part of Europe you are, try contacting Service parts ordering for EMEA quoting the Wireless USB adapter FRU(s) from the X300 HMM (Item No.7) - Either FRU: 42T0971 (US) or 42T0973 (Japan).

The current cost for each FRU quoted online from Service Parts UK (IBM) is:
FRU: 42T0971 - £89.91 inc VAT + P&P
FRU: 42T0973 - £71.93 inc VAT + P&P

Thanks for your help, but meantime I bought one 42T0971 from US at $95 (£67)

just curious what do you use wireless USB for?

external HD, printer, external DVD drive with Belkin F5U303 WUSB HUB

External display with IoGear WUSB video card

external HD that supports wireless USB? where did you buy that USB?

If you have a WUSB card in the notebook, you can connect it to a WUSB HUB (eg. F5U303 WUSB HUB: http://www.belkin.com/support/product/? ... 303&scid=1 )
After this you can connect the most USB HW wireless. (USB HD as well)


I bought my WUSB card on http://www.acsoutlet.com/
P/N: 42T0971

It's FUN

I think you must confirm that you have the WUSB antenna in your X300 1st.
I checked my X200t, there's none:(

All of the X300 has WUSB (UWB) antenna
