Ken, Thanks. What is the wifi you have on the laptop. If you can check, that would be great. The choices they give are: Sunay, Use the Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (or the 62xx) with the 'iwp' driver. The iwp driver needs some updated integration work though that I'm working on. ~ Ken Mays 1. ThinkPad b/g/n 2. [$0.00] Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000 3. [add $20.00] Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 (2x2 AGN) 4. [add $40.00] Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (3x3 AGN) 5. [add $55.00] Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250 If you can check, that would be great.
