Re: Can the Dell wireless 1390 card be replaced by user?

Tried these suggestions and they did not help my problem. Thanks anyhow.

have you first considered upgrading the firmware in your router?
also if your network is hidden then i suggest that you disable hiding the ssid.

My Inspiron 9400 with Vista Ultimate takes forever (a minute usually) to reconnect to my Linksys G access point after resuming from either Sleep or Hibernation. It apparently is related to the Vista driver for this card (I have a spare HD with XP installed for this same machine and it reconnects with XP in seconds). My daughter has an Inspiron 1720 with Vista Home that reconnects almost instantly, so it doesn't appear to be Vista itself.

I am using the most current Dell driver and I am doubting that Dell is going to invest much to update the driver, so I am thinking about just getting a different internal mini card (Intel?) that will recover faster because of its better driver.

The question I have is "Can the Dell 1390 card be replaced by the user?" Mostly concerned about reconnecting with internal antenna.

Next question would be how to get a different card, and which one. Ebay?

Mike

p.s. I also updated to Vista SP1 with no effect on this problem.
