    hello,
    I recently tried to replace the original 4965AG_MM1 with an Intel 5300AGN in order to be able to create an access point on my CF-30 Mk2 (CF-30FWSAXAM)
    unfortunately the 5300 appears to be not recognized at boot
    does anyone have experience about compatibility of a wifi adapter and the CF-30 mk2?
    thank you for your help?

    thank you Shawn
    By reading your previous posts, I understand that I have to find a 6250, or better a SR71e, if SR71e is adapted for hostednetwork
    all the best

    Hi Shawn
    I finally bought a 6250. Unfortunately, everything is not ok: the adapter was recognized and appears in device manager and the drivers are installed , but the Wireless switch software doesn't work anymore
    I downloaded the Intel Proset Utility, run the tests, they indicates that the adapter is turned off. It appears to be a software issue with the Panasonic wireless switch utility, but I can't fond thé solution
    Did you had to make any modification when you were using the 6250 on your CF30 Mk2?
    Thank you for your help
    Olivier
