    I have the 4695AGN, and I have used it with the WRT 300N. Works well. :) I believe the wireless card is under the touch pad is it not?

    I hate taking the keyboard off , those thin plastic ribbon connectors are a pain , don't want to break them . I was hoping they were underneath , like memory .
    If the bios is locked does that mean i can only use cards that came with this model ? , So broadcom cards and intel 5100- 5300 are out ?
    4695 A,G,N will be what I get then .
    thanks .
