I would like to have a wireless card that the BIOS recognises. Although I have fitted a 5100 into my MK1 and it functions, I keep an eye out for the official Panasonic version.
A MB has turned up but the seller doesen't seem to know the model number. He has parted it out as due to a BIOS password. The date on the DVD drive seems to say 2011!
I know the later models probably used the 5100 for a while. I have enquired about the wireless card but I think he has misunderstood. He has send me a pic of a Sierra Gobi card which seems to be below one of the speakers. I take it that is the WWAN not the WLAN?
Are all the WLAN cards suitated behind the cover on the bottom on the various models and if this is a much later model would the WLAN be of any use to me?
- 
 Again: U just have to look into ur SLIC-table
     
Yep, it's WWAN.
Are all on the bottom, but in my MK4 it is a half size card. - 
 
Ok I have a cf52 mk2 and just loaded the RW program. Now how do I find the SLIC-table / whitelist in all that information?
 - 
 
Does the whitelist specify what card models such as 5100 6200 etc..or does it specify OEM Panasonic card?
 - 
 
 
Err.. thanks for the replies!
Obviously if there is a way round this to use generic cards that the BIOS will recognise without the pin mod then that would be useful to know. That would assume I could understand it and that of course it doese not break any Forum rules! -
