I have upgraded from the default intel 5300 wireless card to an intel 5300 wimax card and now I don"t have a option to turn on the wireless card. All I get is the Bluetooth radio option. Any help? I have installed the latest 5350 drivers

Does the 5350 require a USB cable? Or can I just swap out the old one?

Hi...Get the 5300, without WiMAX, which is far from sure of ever getting anywhere. Also, when do you want your laptop?? Currenty, the 5350's are out of stock, and it says if you choose "this option" (the 5350), allow 4-6 weeks for delivery, which in Lenovo's lingo means: "Happy Thanksgiving from Lenovo. Sorry for the long wait. We make excellent laptops, but we are crappy at shipping them. What does customs mean?"

Which one are you getting? W700 or the ds model? Which configuration?

I hope this helped. ;)
