I was thinking of installing one on my old acer 5920g to upgrade internally to N speeds but was wonder if anyone knew if I needed a driver and where to find one? I just hope that it works in this rig.
One thing I did notice is that it has 3 antenna inputs but mine current Intel b/g card has two is there any way to hook up another antenna to the third input for more range?
Heres a link to one.

first, this is in the wrong subforum.
second, all you need is a u.fl antenna. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirose_U.FL
you can find hundreds of those on ebay just search it. they are cheap and came with different sizes.
just connect the antenna like the other 2 ones. you have to place it in the back of the LCD. with some luck you don't have to unscrew it.
I've installed a similar gigabyte one. I just put the cable trough the whole into the back of the lcd.
about the drivers... just search gigabyte webpage and hope your OS is supported.

if you have or want to try linux just try madwifi drivers. though I think your card doesn't support packet injection.
Anyone ever install a GIGABYTE AirCruiser N300 GN-WS30N-RH 300Mbps 802.11n MIMO Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter?
