    Hi,

    I would like to upgrade the wireless adapter on an Inspiron 1545 to something that has Wireless N capability. Currently it's using the stock Dell Wifi 1397 adapter. What are my choices for upgrades?

    Thanks

    Since it is a full height wifi card, the best value is a Intel Wifi Link 4965 AGN. I upgraded my Vostro 1500 3945 ABG to this card, huge performance increase.
