TP-Link TL-WN861N 300Mbs Mini PCI Adapter Discontinued

[olex126]

Not sure if this is the right section to post, but here goes anyway.

TP-Link has discontinued manufacture of their wonderful TL-WN861N Mini PCI 300 Mbs wireless adapter.

I relied on this adapter to upgrade wireless cards in about a dozen older A & T series Thinkpads.

(There...using the term "Thinkpad" SHOULD make the posting apropo to this section!)

Went to buy more from my local purveyor and discovered that they are discontinued. Cleaned him out of the last half-dozen that he had in stock just to have my own supply on hand.

I did a quick perusal of Newegg, eBay, etc, and there are a few available, but I would imagine what's left will be gone before too long.

Anyone that uses this card in their upgrades may want to lay in a few for future projects.

Just an FYI.

Regards. Dave
