    Hello,

    Looking to buy an Elitebook 8570p.
    However, I need to use an Atheros wireless card.
    Can somebody help me use PhoenixTool and figure out whether or not the Bigfoot Wireless Killer cards are on the whitelist for this laptop?

    I'm not sure the process to do this and I don't want to buy the laptop without a wireless card and then have to flash the BIOS (and risk bricking it).

    I've looked at some of the Probooks with Atheros wireless, but the 15" models with Atheros wireless all have lower resolution displays so I'm not interested.

    Any help is *greatly* appreciated.
