Whitelist of Wifi cards in BIOS (F29) for DV& 4010TX

I need to replace my current single band wifi card and have tried the alternatives listed in the user manual.  On boot BIOS returns "incompatible wifi device system halted"
I have tried 3 different Broadcom cards and an Intel card with the same results.  ALL of the ones I have tried are supposed to work (as per user manual)
What will work

  • T61, T60 - BSOD for Intel WiFi cards, Middleton BIOS, & Win 8.1 & 10

    This is an "all-in-one" post. Recently, my trusty T61p started getting Blue Screens of Death (BSOD) with the following message:
    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQAL in sysnetwlv64.sys This has been frequently reported as a complication of Windows 8.1 (only) when installing the Intel drivers for the 3945 and 4965 WiFi cards.  Both Intel and Microsoft state that these cards, plus the 5200 are no longer supported, but the 6200, 6300, etc. are. Suggested remedies are:
    1. For the T61's, reflash with the Middleton BIOS (2.29 plus mods - no white list, SATA 2 works).  Then install a more recent WiFi card that has supported drivers for Win 8.1.
    2. Change cards in both the T60 and T61s to the IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad 11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Express Adapter 42T0825 (this is an Atheros AR5008 5418 AR5BXB72). In recent posts I have seen about Win 10, the old Intel drivers that used to work for Win 8.0 (but didn't in 8.1) appear to work in Win 10.  (However, since it is still before July 29, I can only assume this is in preview versions, not RTM).  If anyone has actually in installed the Win 10 RTM and had no problems, this whole thing may be a "non-issue".  Is there any experience with this? If I follow the remedies suggested above:
    1. Using the replace the card approach with the Middleton BIOS, what is a good card to get?  The other benefit of the Middleton BIOS is to allow the harddrives in the T-61's as SATA 2 instead of the dumbed-down SATA 1 as in the stock 2.29, 2.30 BIOS
    2. If I follow the replace with the Atheros cards, I assume the best approach is to see if there are 3 antennas in the T60 (the T61's already have them).  If not, I understand that I can add the 3rd antenna with FRU 42R9909. For specific machine configurations, see the specs at the bottom (they're all "FrankenPads"). Many thanks for looking and your comments... --------------------------------------T-61p -- 15.4" WXSGA+, Win 8.1 64-bit, BIOS 2.30, CPU-T9500 2.6 GHz (Penryn), RAM 8GB DDR2-667 (2x4GB), HD 500GB (7200RPM, SATA 2, WD5000BPKT-00PK4T0), NVIDIA Quadro F570FM (1680x1050 - 9.18.13.2702), DVD-RAM, WiFi Intel 4965 (13.3.0.137), Ethernet Intel 82566MM (9.13.41.3), Ricoh Media Cardbus (6.3.9600.16384), Biometric CPU (1.6.1.341), Conexant Modem (7.62.0.0), Broadcom Bluetooth (12.0.0.8047) T-61 -- 14.1" WXGA+, Win 8.1 64-bit, BIOS 2.30, CPU-T7800 2.6 GHz (Merom), RAM 8GB DDR2-667 (2x4GB), HD 320GB (7200RPM, SATA 3, WD3200BEKX-22B7W4T0), NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M (1440x900 - 9.18.13.2702), DVD-RAM, WiFi Intel 4965 (13.3.0.137), Ethernet Intel 82566MM (9.13.41.3), Biometric CPU (1.6.1.341), Conexant Modem (7.62.0.0), Broadcom Bluetooth (12.0.0.8047) T-60 -- 14.1" XGA, Win 8.1 32-bit, BIOS 2.27, TPM 1.2, CPU-T7600 2.3 GHz (Merom), RAM 3GB usable DDR2-667 (2x2GB), HD 320GB (7200RPM, SATA 2, WD3200BEKT-00PVM4T0), Intel Graphics 945 Express (1024x768 - 8.15.10.2697), DVD-RAM, WiFi Intel 3945ABG (13.3.0.137), Ethernet Intel PRO/1000PL (9.15.11.0), Biometric CPU (1.6.1.341), Conexant Modem (7.62.0.0), Broadcom Bluetooth (12.0.0.8047)

    I'd say go with Middleton BIOS either way (SATA II). In which case, get a newfangled 802.11ac card while you're at it.

  • What replacement wifi card do i need for iMac 21.5-inch EMC 2308 late 2009 model

    Need to replace wifi card. For the life of me, I can't find the exact model # of wifi card I will need. Only that I need "AirPort Extreme (802.11g/n)," but when I search for that, I get all sorts of different shaped and sized cards that meet those specs.

    I would try giving them a call at their support number.  They may be able to help both identify the correct part and know where you can get a replacement. In addition, you may also want to consider getting a wireless USB adapter. You would use this instead of the internal card. There are a number of vendors providing these as well.

  • AC wifi card upgrade for dv7-6b77dx?

    Hi.  I'm considering purchasing a router utilizing the new AC wireless standard and I'm wondering if there are any AC wifi cards that are approved for use in the US with the dv7-6b77dx?  I was looking specifically at the Intel 7260HMW but if there's any other AC wireless card that's approved for use I'm open to alternatives.  
    If there aren't any currently approved for use, is there any expected timeframe when one will be?  Thanks.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Thanks Huffer.  I thought that was probably the case but figured I'd just check anyway.  Good info though to know that HP doesn't add new wifi cards to the approved list with bios updates.  Not what I wanted to hear of course but at least I know now not to wait for that and go with a USB adapter instead if AC wireless is something I really want.  
    FYI though for anyone else considering this upgrade, I just tested an AC USB adapter from my local Best Buy along w/a new AC router and I wasn't that impressed (great at short range but no better and actually worse than N at a distance which is what I really wanted it for).  Maybe that was just the router and adapter I tried (both Linksys) but for now I've decided to just return those and stick with the laptop's Centrino N card.

    For the moment i have only a wifi card, with this spare part number 572509-001.
    My CPU is a Intel I5 M520.
    I found on the HP partsurfer site this card 593127-001. But the wifi is not the best on this card.
    Are there any other better cards that work?

  • Are you going to add Intel 7260 AC WiFi card to X230's BIOS whitelist?

    Are you going to add Intel 7260 AC  WiFi card to X230's BIOS whitelist in the future?
    I'm thinking about upgrading my wifi-card to an Intel AC card.
    Thank you.

    Presently Lenovo Regulatory Notes list consists wifi adapters with AC specification support in the m.2 formfactor only, for the new laptops line on Haswell. Do conclusions yourself.

  • Supported Dual Band Wifi Card for s230u Twist?

    I just bought the s230u Twist and realized that the Intel 2230 wifi card is *not* dual band (2.4 GHz only).  I also realize that the BIOS has a whitelist for mini-pci cards and need to know if there are any dual band cards that are supported.  Thanks.

    Hey there guys,
    Jccheng, the ThinkPad a/b/g/n Wireless & Bluetooth 4.0 (2x2 ABGN & BT 4.0) is a dual band adapter that is compatible and comes as upgrade with the ThinkPad Twist s230u. The 802.11a only runs on a 5Ghz Frequency, and the 802.11n can run on either. I have listed all the adapter options with part numbers below:
    04W3763 Cybertan BCM43228+BCM20702 abgn WLAN & BT 4.0 Combo (ThinkPad a/b/g/n)
    04W3764 Liteon BCM43228+BCM20702 abgn WLAN & BT 4.0 Combo (ThinkPad a/b/g/n)
    04W3765 Intel 2x2 11bgn + BT4.0 Combo Jackson Peak1 (Centrino 2230)
    As an option, you can call the Lenovo Contact Center, 1-800-426-7378, for a Parts Only order. Hope this helps!
    Ophion, are you looking for the Intel Card for a specific feature?

  • I have a dv4-2180us and I want to change out the wifi card for one w/ bluetooth and 5G

    Product name dv4-2180US. My wifi card is intel wifi link 1000 BGB, and I'd like to switch it out to an intel 6230 that has both. Is it possible to modify the BIOS? I have upgraded my BIOS to the most recent 55454 hoping that would correct the problems with the keyboard...which it has not...but I'm far more interested in making full use of my network., Thanks.

    I can tell you that you need to make sure the form factor is the same on the new as the existing one.
    The bios really has no bearing on it. Its hardware thats compatible with hardware.
    Parts like that are not readily available to swap from machine to machine. There are standards for which the card interfaces to the machine and thats why I mentioned the form factor of the card.
    Physical dimensions are also to be noted, as some cards are larger than others with the same form factor.
    You really have to do your homework and research to see what will work.
    Your machine may already have a slot availble for a bluetooth board, or fingerprint reader as those are both viable options.
    You are not likely going to get bluetooth and wireless n on the same card anyways. I would suggest looking for a dual band wireless n card and seeing if you have another slot to put a blutooth module into.
    Another option is to get a type 2 cardslot module and just insert it when you need it. If your machine has this type of external cardslot it may be your cheapest option.

  • Does TX2z has a bios lock on its WIFI card?

    Yes, you heard it right. HP has whitelist of their wifi card.
    Evenif with the wifi card that pull out from other HP model, there is posibility that card may not work.
    How to identify the compatible one? Downloading Service and Maintenance guide of your model would let you know the compatible one.

    You're very welcome.
    You can look at the service manual at the link below and in chapter 3 you will find an illustrated parts list with all components you can purchase with the HP part numbers.
    http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03099448.pdf
    Then to buy a part, you can enter the part # in the site below in the applicable box.

    When you see the wireless cards available, the dual band card you see is only for notebooks with Intel processors--and it doesn't matter, as the part number for that card is incorrect and nobody knows what the right one is.
    Changing a wireless card in an HP consumer notebook is nothing short of a nighmare due to the BIOS lock out of any cards not listed in the service manual for the specific model notebook.

  • HP 15 TouchSmart Notebook PC upgrade for stock wifi card

    I would like to know what wifi card I can buy to replace the stock card in my Notebook:
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3110M CPU @ 2.40GHz
    BIOS version F.17
    Windows 8.1 64 bit
    TIA

    In my experience, most laptops don't support being able to replace these kind of components with 3rd party options. If the wifi card has failed, you would have to purchase one with the same part number or risk your motherboard/bios not recognizing the card. It is more than just a driver issue. Many manufacturers will write support for only a few (sometimes, only one or two) cards into the bios. There may be a way if you are comfortble modding your bios, but that is beyond my ability to talk you through.

  • Y50 Whitelisted Wifi cards

    Hello, I looking for an wifi card to upgrade my Y50 laptop. I found this link https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/lenovo_y40_50_series_hmm.pdf but I'm not sure if it is correct, since I'm using an Atheros AR9565 on my laptop and it is not on the list.I didn't mod my BIOS or anything. So if there is some other cards that is not listed there, have anyone install a BCM94352 yet?

    Why not using the information in the ConfigMgr database and simply query something like
    SMS_G_System_NETWORK_ADAPTER?
