Asking $35 OBO I would prefer you contact me via email - iam8up@gmail.com. I accept Paypal primarily, open to other options if you need to. I've used it on my T500. I've read it works with other models. R60, R61, R400, R500, T60, T61, T400, W500, Z60, Z61 http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/d...

Any ideas?

I have a docking station (port replicator) for the T500. I am trying to get it to do gigabit. I can do gigabit if I connect directly to the Ethernet port of the laptop. I called IBM and since the docking station is out of warranty they can't help me (even though the laptop itself is). The person on ...

I would like to see $99 for it OBO. I would prefer you contact me via email - iam8up (at) gmail (dot) com SOLD...

From what I see there are two options for the T500. An Atheros BG card and an Intel 5350 AGN card. Not a fan of Intel cards (in Linux especially!) I'm wondering if anyone has tried using a "random" Atheros card in the T500. My main focus is A and G. N is a bonus, not that big a deal. The AR9280 look...

Ask a local pc repair shop or electronics shop.

If they fall through let me know and I'll contact someone that will definitely do it for you. Email me at

Totally an XP problem. You're at the mercy of the software deciding what screens go where.

Some applications may help you. Start with UltraMon.

Both my z61m and a friend's Dell something or other have an Intel 3945 ABG wifi card.

His laptop reaches just a little bit farther then mine =( I'm sure it has something to do with the antenna position, but it isn't a big deal in almost any situation - an AP is always close enough when needed.

One of them appears to be a 2878 Mini Dock, which at the asking price is a steal!! Probably why tfflivemb2 beat me to 'em. But I'm still not sure if a mini dock would do me any good. "Cause I was thinking it would be nice to have a PCI expansion slot. Docking stations have that, right? Does a mini ...

These have been sold...sorry for the slow post guys...

The t30 simple docking station is pretty abundant on eBay, shown here:

I have two used docking stations here. I used them about a year ago and they just sat on the table. I am tired of seeing them sit there. Both have included power cable/power supplies with them. No additional cards are included with the advanced docking station. I am asking $5 plus the cost of shippi...

I just did a fresh install of my retail copy of WinXP (used the Thinkpad ghost image for far too long =) I've got through the list of devices a dozen times in my head and I simply can not figure out what devices these are. I need my fellow Thinkpads Forum members' help =) Quicklink to the matrix for...

something similar that i had, ordered it on 10/22 got it like 11/24 or something, same problem as yours, rescheduling the dates every single day somebody told me something different, I got mine just before you =P I believe I ordered about a week before you and got mine the first couple days of Nove...

I've carried around a z61m for a few months now. It is far too heavy to hold with one hand for anything more then 15 minutes, but it isn't too heavy. Carrying this laptop (along with a LOT of extra junk like cables, CDs, PC cards, etc) in my Targus shoulder bag will begin to ache on my shoulders, th...

Working for me right now. Look at the timestamp on this post.

So... I'm not a quick learner and I especially don't learn well when I had to something unparallel to a guide. Could anyone explain to me what exactly I must do to get this Atheros card to work on my T30? From what I gather... I need to change the PCI ID on the card, using 'idchanger.c'; this will e...

t30 2367-81g, heavily modified. for all i know, the system type is not relevant to the appearance of the problem. for some reason cards with pci id 1014 are not started in the t30. use the idchanger.c (google) and linux to modify the pci id, for example to: PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0012&SUBSYS_2022168C it'...

Which model do you have?

Please note I have a T30, not a T23 - if that matters.

We met this before on T23. If the card is ok, the problem is the issue of driver. Please use Atheros driver from www.driverguide.com. public user name from us: wireless4laptop_driverguide@yahoo.co.uk password: 987654 this is right. HAHAHA!!! It is such a small world out there =P I bought the card f...

sorry, i meant net5211.inf. it's in the ndis5x-folder in the zip memphis linked to in his post. replace %ATHER.DeviceDesc.2022% = ATHER_DEV_2022.ndi, PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0012&SUBSYS_7005144F with %ATHER.DeviceDesc.2022% = ATHER_DEV_2022.ndi, PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014 remove your existing drivers from the ...

Maybe someone can help me out here...this is what the Device Instance Id says... PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&SUBSYS_833117AB&REV_01\4&139E449D&0&10F0 I added this line in the middle of the file, no idea where I was supposed to put it... %ATHER.DeviceDesc.2022% = ATHER_DEV_0014, PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&SUBSY...

Finally got around to do this...still not doing it right =( I removed the drivers, and then had the Device Manager re-scan for hardware changes. It finds a Network Controller but has no idea what it is, so I've obviously removed the drivers correctly. I then replaced the line and had the new hardwar...

Let me get this straight... You want me to remove the device from the device manager. Then you want me to search the entire %SYSTEMROOT% for oem??.inf files? Which ones do I delete? After that I then remove *.pnf corresponding files. Remove ar5211.sys as well. Install it and specify the device from ...

I wasn't able to use the search ability to have the card installed (it's already installed, and it needs an updated driver). I forced it to Atheros AR5001X Mini PCI Wireless Network Adapter (using the whole select from list option).

The device still cannot start =(

I couldn't find an ar52*inf in \windows\*.* I have a 5212 card, not a 5211 if that matters (the drivers I've downloaded both from IBM and the first reply are *5211*, FYI) I do, however, have a net5211.inf which did not contain that string to replace. I am somewhat familiar with linux, I have it Ubun...

OK...I downloaded those drivers and then specified which driver to use. Windows says it wasn't compatible, so I don't know if it's the driver or the PCI ID problem now. I was given a list (all of which were 'incompatible') of devices, most being AR500# and my card is an AR5212. The last one on the l...

I just got off the phone with IBM's Thinkpad Technical Support and this new wifi card is 'not supported by this machine'. I put in an Atheros 5212 and the previous owner told me he upgraded the motherboard, so I don't know what the model number of it is. It installed the drivers just fine, but it gi...

This is, in a word, marvelass!!!

This worked straight through for me!

I have a Thinkpad T30 2366-BU4
and just installed an Atheros AR5212 802.11abg REV01

Just so everyone knows...that wireless card is not compatible with 'this machine' (according to Technical Support).
