Can I change the Wireless card of my W7J?

I bought a wireless-N router but my W7J dosen´t have Wireless-N card. Does any one know if I can upgrade it with an Intel wireless card and where can I buy it?

Thanks

 

Yes, you can switch it out.

You want a Intel PRO/WIRELESS 4965 (MINI-PCI-E 802.11A/B/G Draft N). I can get it locally at NCIX - http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=25278&vpn=4965AGNMM1GN&manufacture=Intel

Do a search for it.

 

Tanks for the answer RogueMonk. Do you know where the card is located and if it's easy to replace?

Sorry, but there is no image of the interior of the laptop in the video.

this thread shows my reply from a while ago. the wifi card is not accessible on w7j

 

Do you know if I can get the W7J assembly guide?

 

I made a W7S dissembly guide quite a while ago when I was upgrading to a Wireless Intel 4965AGN card.

I don't know the differences between the chassis of a W7S or W7J but here's how I upgraded the wireless card:

*Changing the wireless card could void your warranty unless you use a little trick which is also explained in my guide.

 

Thanks for the reply. Now it will be easier for me to replace it. I think the chassis are the same. Where did you purchase your Intel 4965AGN wireless card?

 

I bought my 4965AGN from Ebuyer.com quite a long time ago, but they should be readily available from where you are unless you're looking for those Atheros cards.

 

Best way is open the keyboard and unscrew the bottom of ur laptop and see where it is. U'll find it.

 

I just confirmed that Ebuyer as the card in stock. If I don´t find it here in Portugal I will buy it from there.
Thanks
