Upgrading the Motion M1300 Wireless card

June 14, 2008 (Last Modified: June 15, 2008)

I have been doing some machine upgrades lately. The latest though is the swapping out of the original OEM wireless NIC in my Motion M1300 tablet with the Dell TrueMobile 1450 (wireless a/b/g) card. The installation went pretty easy. The card is a tight fit in the M1300, that’s for sure. So far I haven’t had any issues with the card and I’m typing this wirelessly.

A friend of mine also got this card and installed it into his Dell laptop. He had some issues getting the card to work with the WEP settings of his router.
