Another Tech Inferno Fan Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I think you should learn what wireless cards are first. Maybe then you would know that 5G does not exist. 5 GHz wifi, however, does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! If you dont want to modifiy your bios (thats what you need todo if you want to use any other wifi card then the whitelisted ones from lenovo) you need to use one of theese models (whitelisted from lenovo): The 6300N got 5Ghz for example.

Ratman Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I would probably go with Intel's Centrino cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dex Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Intel cards are good for software updates as far as others Broadcom work well but my best experience has been with Atheros.

Are there any *actual* 5G cards that'll work with an unlocked BIOS (because that would be awesome) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
