    Just picked up a T420 off of the outlet. It came with the BGN wireless card. This neophyte did not realize I needed an a/b/g/n card to take advantage of the 5ghz band on my Cisco e4200 router. contacted lenovo and asked if I could purchase the proper adapter. Online chat person said no.
    Anybody have any suggestions/alternatives on how I might be able to get this accomplished?
    Sure would like to use the faster band. Thanks in advance.
