The MacCore Podcast - MacBook 802.11n Upgrade Video

[carrutherst]

Thanks for the vid my friend.

I can't seem to get mine to pre-bind though pacifist, however, in the system profiler the airport card says it supports a/b/g/n.

Is this sufficient?

802.11N requiresw 3 aerials so its not really N?

[nycundone]

thanks for the video. question: did you notice a decrease in the signal sensitivity of the WiFi after the switch -- i.e. MacBook not picking weaker signal networks that it picked up with the original card?

How does this work on a MBP Core Duo? Cos surely it only has 2 antennas but 80211n needs 3?

[yuu23bakuhatsu]

there's this mac pro version of N with 2 antennas

u can find it in apple store, just ask for the replacement kit

[yuu23bakuhatsu]

i got the 80211n with 3 antennas on my core duo

works fine.. just connect 1 and 3

Passable... I noticed the mistake at 1:40sec where you spun a Phillips bit instead of a Torx bit then caught yourself, and went off and got the right bit. Also those are "Torx" screws, not "Hex".. there is a BIG BIG difference.

Yeah, we actually caught the mistake after the video was already finished but have posted the corrected information and listed all the needed materials on our website.
