    so here it is... i have the intel 2200BG in my CF-29. just bought a WRT600N and i want to get the most out of it so its time, if i can, to swap out to the latest and greatest wifi card that can fit into the CF-29. what is it and where can i get it. Please and tank you. Oh by the way did i mention... MAN I LOVE MY TOUGHBOOK! Ive had it now for just a little under a year and have never had todo a restore or any major maintence or trouble shoot on it...and ive got a Dell dsktop that cost me about 3500 and an inspriron that ive had to do annual restores and other stuff to keep it going...who knew Panasoic could build a kik but laptop. I mean i knew they were tough and rugged but man even performance wise i am blown away! :)

    Atheros AR5008 Wireless Mini PCI Card 802.11n looks like your best choice
    Intel has moved along and the newer intel cards are mini pci-express only

    Our supplier has alot of different wireless cards I'll see if they stock those and I'll pick some up and sell you one at cost or I'll just give you their contact info. They are based out of Austin, TX.
