Wireless G CF 29 Upgrade?

I'm non techie - but really like my Panasonic Toughbook CF-29 - and it seems it is built with "Wireless G" which is ancient, according to Virgin Media, and only does up to 54.0 mbps. Is it possible to replace something of the mysteries under the armour, to get it to run 'Wireless N' - or even 'Wireless AC' Its a peeve to have 300 mbps available - but not on my CF-29.

 

I had this in my CF29...Mikrotek R2N

At one time we all were putting these ones in "Engenius EMP-8602+S V3 600mW" http://www.ebay.com/itm/Senao-Engenius-EMP-8602-S-V3-600mW-28dBm-MiniPCI-802-11a-b-g-Wifi/261753923098?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid=222007&algo=SIC.MBE&ao=1&asc=28794&meid=caa2087131224109a5444420b21bde38&pid=100005&rk=2&rkt=6&sd=251813327383&rt=nc

 

This looks good and cheap..

Blair,
The Engenius EMP-8602+S does not have 802.11n....

 

Excellent, I just bought 2 of them for a CF-72 and 73.

 

The search ninja wins again...........

 

Yes I new that ,the reason why I posted this was back a few years ago Alex and I tested the Engenius card and a "N" card . The Engenius card performed better over all...but that was 2-3 years ago too

 

I felt the Microtik R2n was the best of both worlds but costs more....If you can find one..

I do agree that having 802.11N does not always mean faster.....You almost need to have a same brand matched set of router and wifi card to see a real world benefit.

 

Excellent, Shawn! I eBayed it and it's on it's way Notebook Forum wins again! Thanks people

 

Hoboy.. one WLAN Wifi Card received. Now to find some techies who can plug it in for me.. I'll let you know :\

 

When they /you have the bottom off, change the thermal pads also..
