Hi,

There’s a new mini-PCI card available for me to upgrade my Sony laptop. The card currently in my laptop is the Intel 2100 which is 802.11b. I want to upgrade to the new Intel 2200BG.

Does anyone have a link they could share with directions on how to go about doing that.

Thanks.

:smack: bhai mairay!!! i’m talking about this “G” adaptor that YOU are talking about.. is THAT a G or a pre-N (basically a G, flashable for N) a pre-n series is something in the middle .. when they decide on N standards, they will be available for upgrading..

Re: Upgrade built-in wifi card

Ohhhh, now I gotcha!! No, I was just going with the G, not worrying about the N for now. Sorry for the confusion.

ChatWalla, its definitely available on Ebay, plus i saw it on a coupld of other e-stores on the net. Haven't decided yet if I want to take on that challenge yet though.
