    Hello, I was wondering if anyone out there knew the difference between the two model numbers of the Intel 4965 PCIe Mini-Card?

    Here are the two part numbers:
    4965AGNMM1GN
    4965AGNMM1WB

    So far some information on different websites I've learned a few things, but I don't know if any of them are correct.

    First off, the 4965AGNMM1GN seems to be about $5-$10 difference in price, with this model being cheaper.

    Also, unlike the 4965AGNMM1WB, which is always stated as a PCIe Mini-Card, the 4965AGNMM1GN is sometimes stated as an embedded board.

    I think the difference is that certain frequencies (or was it channels) they operate on, because they aren't allowed in America/france. Something like that anyways. It's all about localization.

    I remember answering the same question a few months ago. It pays to remember research.
