Replacement wireless card for Lenovo X60

I just Bought a lenovo X60 tablet (Type 6367-A15) and the wireless card it came with is useless beyond five feet of the access point. I have tried a few cards and they don;t work because of a bios 802 error saying the pcie card is invalid and the computer won't boot. Is there a way to mod the bios and remove the whitest? Alternatively where can I find a list of accepted wireless cards.
Thank you for you help.

acoustaman,

Replacement wireless card for dv7-4177nr

Hello, I am trying to find a compatible (internal) wireless for the notebook in $subject. Looking at the manual, I see a listing of compatible chipsets, but I wanted to see if anyone could verify for me that the cards I found with those chipsets should be ok.
The manual I am looking at is here: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02642701.pdf with the wireless information starting at the bottom of page for and continuing on page 5. The cards I have found that appear to be matches are:

Any feedback or confirmation that one or more these will work would be much appreciated.

Hi,
All compatible cards (with the part numbers) start from page 24 of the same manual. I suggest to use the Atheros AR9280 or the Broadcom 4322. These are only wifi chip, not combos with bluetooth but bluetooth connectivity can be added by a usb adapters. There is plenty of them on ebay.
AR9280: 580101-002
Broadcom 4322: 582564-001
Both chips are for the US etc..
edit: All three chips should work on your laptop but these are only 1x1 single band chips and won't support 5GHz network. 600370-001 is a Broadcom (4313) combo with bluetooth and the other one is the same Broadcom (4313) but only wifi chip.

Replacing wireless card for Twist (whitelisted 5Ghz card)?

Hello,
I unfortunately bought Intel Wifi card and learned that it cannot be used due to whitelisting of cards...
The laptop had a lower spec Intel card.
I would like to switch to dual band (2.4 & 5 Ghz) card that has BT 4.0.
Which options do I have and where to buy it (part number) ?
Thanks!

Everthing is whitelisted except your current one. GG

Configure wireless for Lenovo X60 on Fedora 8, anyone?

Has anyone had any luck getting the built-in wireless card to work for lenovo x60 on Fedora?
Any tip is appreciated.
-tito

Hi,
thanks for the quick reply.
there is a wireless router at my house where it communicates with my PC via the wireless connection. so yes, the wireless capability of my router works.
I have no idea which card is built-in but the Lenovo X60 is of type 1706 and 85U mode. How can you find out for sure from a command or if that is even possible?
you suggested to create and alias in /etc/modprobe.conf for this wireless device once the driver has been installed as follows:
"alias ath0 ath_pci"
do you mean eth0? or ath0 is a new device name that i m not aware of. to my surprise, the ethernet is labeled as eth1.
I'll try to yum install the driver tonight when i get home.
BTW, I am having a similar problem with an IBM T42 running fedora 7. i don't normally use wireless on this laptop because the wireless router (at work) can be flaky at times but it would be nice to install/enable wireless card for it in case i need to bring it home to do some work. I could very well use the wired connection at home with this T42 as well but it would be nice to use the wireless connection instead.
Any hint/tip would be much appreciated.
here is the current ifconfig and modprobe.conf of the T42

Which Wireless Card? Lenovo A26

Hi I am trying to buy a wireless card for my lenovo thinkcentre desktop MT-M 9120-A26 which product should I buy?

Quality USB WiFi adapter should be ok and is most handy. Like D-Link etc. You could also use PCIe WiFi card, but then it will be inbuilt in computer and depending on placement of PC can be good or not so good solution ...

Where can I find a wireless card for my early 2009 Mac Pro (MB871LL/A, MacPro4,1)?

Where on on earth can I purchase a wireless card for my Mac Pro?
Apple is of no help. Their "Geniuses" told me that it is impossible for them sell one to me because Apple will not supply wireless cards or memory for previous generation computers. That is totally absurd. If I want to get a wireless card for my 2 year young computer I can't? I have to buy a brand new computer with one previously installed. Ridiculous!
Any help or suggestions would be of great value to me.

Well I found what I think is the correct card on B&H.
Hopefully it works....

Good wireless cards for older Mac Pros

I have a Mac Pro Dual-Core Intel Xeon 2.66 GHz at work that we are trying to get online wirelessly. A couple of months ago, we bought a Hawking Hi-Gain Wireless-N USB Adaptor, which was working fine until a recent update was performed. Since then, the computer crashes almost immediately if the wireless adaptor is plugged in, but runs fine when it is taken out. I am curious if anyone else has run into a similar problem when using a wireless adaptor. I also wanted to know if anyone had a recommendation for a different, reliable wireless card for an older Mac Pro.
Thanks in advance.

I have almost the exact same situation.
Same system, a d-link wua 1340 usb wireless adaptor.
Worked fine for several weeks or so until i updated to snow leopard.
Now frequent system crashes, grey screen and the box that tells me to use the power button to shut down.
I tried going back to 10.5 and still the same problem.

Elementary question: need wireless card for old Dell

Hi, all: I need to buy a wireless card for my several-years-old Dell Precision 340 desktop, so that I can network it with my MacBook Pro and printer using AirPort Express. Can buy any old USB network adapter card branded "universal"? Any recommendations? There is no built-in wireless card. Also, I understand that I will have to reconfigure the AirPort somehow to handle both PC and Mac (I spent a long time on the phone with Support getting to work in the first place, just with the Mac notebook).
Thanks for any advice!

Hello jonnofor. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Can buy any old USB network adapter card branded "universal"? Any recommendations? There is no built-in wireless card.
Just about any 802.11b/g wireless device will work with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX). The AX is capable of up to WPA2 wireless encryption, so if this is important to you, you would want a device that is WPA or WPA2 capable as well. In addition to USB-style, the Precision 340 can also take PCI-cards. For example, Linksys offers both a USB & PCI types.
Also, I understand that I will have to reconfigure the AirPort somehow to handle both PC and Mac
There shouldn't be any required configuration changes necessary for the AX just to support both Macs and PCs. Most issues that come into play relate to using WEP for wireless encryption. You can eliminate this by using WPA or WPA2 instead.

Wireless card for desktop

Do I need to purchase and install a wirless card for my pc inorder to get the airport express to connect?

If you are trying to get wireless connectivity to a wireless router, like the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), then yes, you will need a 802.11g wireless card for your PC.

S10-3T - Replace Wireless Card in minipci-e slot

Hi
I removed the Atheros wireless card supplied with the S10-3T and replace it with an Intel one I have, and I got a message saying "unauthorised card please remove"... Also, the card I have is a minipci-e, so it will have to go into the slot saved for the 3g (could that be an issue?)
Do you guys know of compatible cards?
Regards
KK

The error indicates, installed card is not compatible. However, when you install Intel wireless card in place of Atheros wireless card it should be fix properly and in a same way as Atheros wireless card.
Kindly make sure you have updated BIOS as well, which is available on Lenovo website.
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/uk/en/DriversDownloads/drivers_show_3299.html
The compatible wireless card is Broadcom BCM4313 and Intel Centrino Wireless-N1000

Replacing Wireless Card in T440p

I bought my T440p about a year ago. Been working fine and no real problems except when I purchased it I got the Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260 wireless card. Upon getting the laptop I realized it couldn't see/connect to 5ghz wifi networks and that I should have got a dual band card instead. I wanted to know a couple of things
1) is it possible to upgrade/replace my current wireless card with a new one?
2) if it is possible, is it something I can do on my own or would I need to send it in somewhere (I've never done anything like that before but I'm pretty confident in my abilities. That said if it is too technical I don't mind getting a pro to do it.
3) again if it is possible which card would be a good replacement?
Thanks for any help!

Replacing Wireless Card In Deskrtop

Hello,
I need to replace my wireless card in my desktop. It is the orginial one that came with the computer about 5 years ago, it is an internal, skinny one with an adapter. I believe it is Lite-On Wireless USB 802.11 a/b. It doesn't have many bars and the driver is 2011 even though it says its the lastest driver. Any suggestions? I would like to get something without the adapter thing thats attached to it. Thanks

Upgrade wireless card for DV6-6B26US....

I have two Hp laptops that are used for work. One is a HP Pavilion DV6-6B26US and the other is a HP Pavilion G4-1215dx.
Recently our employer informed us that company network upgrades will require laptops to have dual band (2.4 & 5 GHz) wireless cards (as the are blocking 2.4 GHz bands in selected locations).
I initially attempted to upgrade the HP Pavilion G4-1215DX with an Intel Centrino 6235 Advanced WiFi card and found that the BIOS contained a whitelist preventing use of the Intel card. I was able to find and order a suitable replacment listed in the service guide for the laptop:
Realtek 8188BC8 802.11a/b/g/n 2×2 WiFi and Bluetooth 3.0+HS Combo Adapter (602993-001)
I cannot, however, find a suitable dual band wireless card listed in the service guide for the HP Pavilion DV6-6B26US. I need to know if a whitelist is employed in the bios for this machine, and if so, which dual band wireless card would be comapatible with this machine?
Alternatively, is there a BIOS avaiable for this machine (or both machines) that does not employ whitelisting of wireless cards?
Thank you,
Patrick

Hi,
Unfortunately the whitelist is still present in this model series (Dv6-6000). I haven't been able to find any compatible dual band wireless card because all wifi chips from the manual are only 1x1. Have you tried the Realtek 8188 on a 5Ghz network? I don't think that it's a dual band wireless card..
