A like for like replacement would be a
NI.23600.102
The card is a mini pcie half height card, in theory any should work, i wouldnt go for an intel card as they can be a pita as they mess with the pin outs0 -
thanks leostat, do you know if the NI.23600.102 is single band or dual (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz). i guess single. i meant to say i would prefer dual band, but dont know if that requires an additional antenna for the 5 GHz.Leostat said:A like for like replacement would be a

I dont think it is, it will have the 5ghz band as its N, but many of the things ac/ax added wont work , Azurewave make AC mini PCIe half hights, but im afraid i wont be able to comment if the blueooth would work
It depends if your current card is using PCIE or USB for the blueooth (I think minipcie had a usb lane on one of the pins), and if there is a vendor lock in on the port so i used to recoemnd just getting a card which matched the pin out of your current one. Im currently out and about but can look into it abit more later if you would like
The vendor lock in is a stuid thing where some companies which er make processors (dont sue me big company plese aha) decided to add a pin which turned off the module if it detects 3.3v or 5v, said pin is in the middle ish and almost always gets voltage on any other board apart from a port provided by them -_-0
