G41-2886 Onboard Wireless adapter card
G41-2886 Onboard Wireless adapter card
Hello all!
First time here and I see that I will be a frequent visitor with all the IBM equipment I now have under my supervision!
I am trying to upgrade a G41-2886 to 802.11N. Is there a compatible card available that I can replace the A/B/G card with?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Welcome to the forum!
There are no official IBM/Lenovo mini-PCI cards capable of "N" range transmission.
This one will work with a "no-1802" hack:

Happy upgrading.

Thanks for the quick reply!!!
I presume since you sent me a link for a N card, that it is the correct one I should order to install and then run the "No 1802" hack on the G41?
Thanks again for your help and I will wait to hear from you before I order the card to be sure I will be ordering the right part!

No.
You run the hack first, along with the one that addresses "01C9" error and then install the card.
Good luck.

Re: G41-2886 Onboard Wireless adapter card
Ok thanks for the clarification.
But it IS the correct card I need to order from the ebay link?
