    Hello all,

    I have a Studio xps 13 and I would like to install a intel 5300 in it. Can this card work on this laptop? (I can take the 3rd antenna from the WWAN).

    Thank you

    Yes it will work just make sure the size of the card by checking your wwan bay before hand.(Full mini/half mini) as for the 3rd antenna check the bay the 3rd antenna wire should be grey in color..that goes to the middle contact on the wwan card.
