    So basically the WiFi card in my Clevo W110er has died. I'm looking to replace the card myself but have had no luck finding the correct part on eBay or Amazon. Can anyone lead me in the right direction as to where I can find a replacement? Any help is appreciated!

    Replacing a wifi card is probably one of the easiest thing to do on a laptop.
    First, download the service manual, in order to teardown correctly your computer : EUROCOM W110ER SERVICE MANUAL Pdf Download.
    go to the chapter "removing the wireless lan module" and follow instructions :)

    You can replace your wifi card by any card you want , i would suggest an intel N7260, work good, and a very reasonnable price : http://www.amazon.com/7260HMW-IEEE-...F8&qid=1419106958&sr=8-1&keywords=intel+n7260

    if you have more money and a compatible Router, you can pick a AC version : intel AC7260 : http://www.amazon.com/Intel-7260-HM...F8&qid=1419106958&sr=8-2&keywords=intel+n7260


    they both featutre bluetooth and are quite reliable :)

    Hope i helped

    Don't forget to download and install the drivers for the new card.

    Awesome cards
    I have one in each of my laptops( five all around the place)
    They are perfect and are very quick and very very very reliable.

    Enjoy the new card when you get installed :)

    It's a good idea to remove the driver for the previous WLAN card first, also. Keep in mind that if you go with the 7260AC from Intel, the drivers for it have been subject to some problems.

    I would suggest the normal 7260n version.. The ac version is really not worth the hassle...
