Is it possible to upgrade the T410 from an Intel Centrino 1000 to Centrino 6300? I now have a 5GHz router and would like to take advantage of it. Was hoping there are no issues with antennas, etc. An insight is appreciated.

Sure it's possible. The 6300 uses (3) antennas though vs. the 1000 which uses (2).

Do you know if all three antennas are always provided in the 410? I had a problem a couple years back with at T60 that was purchased with a wireless B/G radio and it did not have a third antenna to support wireless B/G/N radio. If there's no third antenna, I'll likely buy a 6200.
