QUOTE(corallinkz @ Dec 27 2010, 11:32 AM) thanks for that tips jeffrey. btw, anyone know IMBI asus contact number? as i dont really have the guts to change the wifi card myself -- perhaps ill ask them to do. that would be free right ? and how many times we can ask the official MALAYSIA asus service center to do this replacement/re-paste etc without any charge? and one more thing, for the RMA, is it only i have 1 time opportunitites can RMA back to asus and after that i need to pay for that. im not sure about this, thats why i'd ask. thanks for helps Actually it is pretty simple. I just change mine to intel 6200N and it takes less than 5 min to do it. Unless you going to add 1 more antenna with the 6300N then it is different story. next job: going to swap the optical drive with 3rd harddisk...

QUOTE(DoubleU @ Dec 27 2010, 03:41 PM) yea i sort of wished the g53 was as easy to dismantle as the G73... adin where did you get your card? i can't find one in JB....
Added on December 27, 2010, 3:53 pmhm just got off the ASUS call centre, apparently we're not allowed to dismantle the G53jw by ourselves? Even if there is no warranty void sticker? hm... i guess i'll fix my wifi card in sydney.... @cheesenium is the service centre convient in sydney? I bought it thru Taobao from China, cost me RM47 including shipping to Malaysia. Also found that our stock card (Atheros 9285) only selling around RM20 in China.

QUOTE(corallinkz @ Dec 27 2010, 08:57 PM) thanks. do you have any reference that i can refer on? i've already get my wifi card, just matter of time shipping back to malaysia + assemble time  emm, no reference. What I did was; 1. Open the back cover. You can see your half height mini pci-e wifi card at the top left side. 2. Unscrew the 2 small screws and the card will "pop" up. Remember to detach the 2 antennas with your finger before that. Do it slowly. 3. Take out the card and replace with the new one. Push the card down and put the 2 screws back. Reattach 2 antennas. 4. Download the official driver from intel website. It is very easy. Hope this help you. Cheers. |

QUOTE(DoubleU @ Dec 28 2010, 05:21 PM) hey, should i change my wifi to broadcom? cause i dun really like their wifi cards, but its the only one i can get here... =\ Broadcom are mostly used by Dell. So it should be good enough. You didn't try to find intel around? maybe in Singapore? |
