    lol uncle grandpa! Hey thanks again, mines must've arrived on Saturday, I just installed it into my HP EliteBook 725 G2 J5N82UT and it didn't reject it. Great since this is an AMD-based PC! Now I have an excuse to upgrade to an 802.11ac WiFi router.

    Mine arrived.

    With a little BIOS mod, the card works great!

    Thanks, HT!

    Many people upload bioses with whitelists removed. Also there are tutorials on doing it yourself that can be found online. Searching for "Lenovo XXXX whitelist removal" does the trick.
