Vostro 1500 Wireless ABG (N?)

Hello

8 months back I bought my vostro without Wireless N (I believe) Dell Japan wanted the equivelant of 150 USD($) for the Dell wireless N so I walked away.

I would like to add wireless N but when I looked at PCcard slot Wireless N addition but no luck seeing as Vostro/Inspiron 1500/1520 do not support the card.

Is there a similar product for the express card slot? or any other alternative would be great seeing as I am trying to get the most out of my 100MB/S and currently require wireless.

Also would a CAT 7 wire between Modem and Router be a good idea vs a CAT 5 cable?

Thanks

 

... 20 views and not one idea >.< hard to believe

 

There are 3 slots on the bottom. Any of them will take it. They do support the card.

 

Could you explain in more detail. The card that I was looking at is this(below) Sorry I only know its name in japanese which is PCslot



Cheers

 

No no, get an internal card...pci mini card.

Thanks. Is it in the dell manual where to install it and how? Will I also have to swap out my current card?

Thanks

 

actually found one Japanese store selling

would that work?

 

bump bump bump would be great for answer so far thanks nizzy

 

x2p, I can't read, but the 4965 is a great card, and centrino compliant, unlike the Dell 1505. You'll have to swap out your current card and reattach the antennas PLUS ONE MORE for the N, and you should be good to go.

 

Ok Thanks is it in the service manual >.< so far browsed 200 pages for pictures *cant read japanese well XD*

Edit: will i have to sauder anything?

 

No soldering.
