Thanks for the tip Alan, I didn't know about mini-pci express.

I can get an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 or 6300 on Amazon.  Does
anybody have any experience with these adapters and the iwn driver?  I
ask because the reason I need a new adapter is that my 6230 doesn't
work with the iwn driver.

Alternatively, does anybody have a recommended *half* mini-pci adapter
of another brand?

Something with ral(4) or athn(4)

ciao,
David



I agree, I'm shopping for original mini-pci myself for my old laptop, and only looking at Ralink and Atheros chipsets. There are some wonderful prices available in China, like $6, the problem is how to get them exported. Try eBay, the direct-from-Taiwan deals. Search by chipset. Make sure it does 11n or at least 11g, and hostap if you're interested in that. I've also used Pricewatch because the format lets you browse better than Froogle. There are plenty of half-size mini pci express cards out there, it's getting hard to find much else.
