Portege Z830-11H - Upgrade of Intel Wifi and 3G module.
Posted: 29-Jun-2012 12:28

Hi!

I have Z830-11H purchased in Finland.

Recently I discovered that I have I had Atheros wi-fi module instead of Intel one.
That disables Wireless Display option.

Is it possible to exchange the wi-fi modules?
I also want 3G connectivity.

Is it possible get that module?

Thanks!

Alexey.

Hi

Some of the Z830 are equipped with an 3G module so it should be possible to upgrade this with an 3G module.
The compatible 3G module could be ordered from Toshiba ASP in your country as well as an compatible WLan card.
As the miniPCI Wireless LAN module is based on DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum / Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing radio technology) complies with the IEEE 802.11 standard so usage of such Wlan modules should not be a problem but probably the BIOS would not recognize the new module…therefore I would recommend asking the dealer if you could replace this Wlan if it would not be BIOS compatible.
