I was wondering if there is a specific wireless N card that works the best for a Acer 5315. I am looking to upgrade mine but want one that is the best and most compatable. Price is somewhat of a concern but dependabilty and quality are more important. Any info is greatly appreciated.

I had good results with an Inter 4965 draft n card.

It slots straight in and integrates with the Acer software/buttons.

I ran a third antenna to the front left of the laptop base.

It should be pretty cheap as its been superceded by the 5100/5300 series cards.

Thanks for the reply Quilty997. I was kinda looking at that one based on what I had read in the forums. Just wanted to be sure there was not anything better out there. Will have to order it and try it out. I have an old laptop that the airlines destroyed so I can steal the wireless antenna out of that to get the third antenna if I wish to get more diversity reception.

Thanks again.
