    I'm looking to upgrade the thinkpad b/g/n card in my wife's T420s and want to get a 6205 (2x2 agn). Can anyone suggest the best place to get one? For some reason I can't find it on the Lenovo site (I might just be having a senior moment!).
    Thanks

    eBay is probably a better source. Make sure you get a ThinkPad branded card with a FRU as it probably won't work otherwise without a BIOS hack.

    That's my goal, but everyone seems to sell the Dell branded ones. Do you know the correct FRU?
