New wireless card

Mar 08, 2008 19:35

I somehow always had problems with the internal wireless interface of my T60 laptop. I can't connect across 2 walls from my wireless router at home. I had always wanted to buy something to boost my laptop wireless interface. So, I bought a Dlink DWA-645 PCMCIA card today.(It is a 802.11n card - a futuristic investment :p). This is not bad at all.. It is not disconnecting frequently like before, although the signal strength still remains low.. It doesn't have Linux drivers yet. But, some folks have posted online that they have got it working using ndiswrapper and windows drivers.. I am not yet able to :( But, I haven't yet given up.. Anyway, hopefully I can sit anywhere at home and browse now without constantly worrying about connection.
