Replacing the WiFi Card in an MSI Wind U100 Netbook

This is a video for the tinkerers among you, which shows how to upgrade the built-in Realtek WiFi card of an MSI Wind U100 netbook to an draft N card, specifically an Atheros AR5B93 card.

The reason for Emil Davis, who created this how-to video was the incompatibility of the Realtek card with the Linux distributions he tried on his netbook, the new network card works with Fedora 16.

If you also own an MSI Wind and don't get WiFi working under Linux AND you are a daring person this instructional video will hopefully get you started.

Operating Systems: Fedora
