    Hello all i got some wireless bug on ubuntu on my hp presario cq56

    I dont know if it the wireless card going dead or ubuntu.. But i remember having some prob in windows 1 time i think im not sure im going to test it with heavy download...


    So the stock one is a Realtek

    Realtek RTK8191SE HP P/N 593033-001


    The one im looking at used is a Realtek RTL8191SE 802.11b/g/n PCI-E Half mini Wireless HP SPS# 593533-001



    Any idea if the upgrade is worth it for 35$ with shipping?
