hi guys
its been long since i've been here. But its a place to go when u are in need of some help.

My issue is, Can i enable AirPort Extreme 802.11N enabler. I have a Macbook Pro 17" intel core duo(not core 2 duo). And my Wireless Card type is AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x86). And in the Applications/Utility/Network Utility pane it shows that my Wireless Network Adaptor Model is 802.11 a, b, g. And for the info sake i am using AirPort Extreme Base station.

Taking these info into consideration can anyone Pl! tell me, can i enable 802.11N

Thanking you all in advance:Blushing:

The CoreDuo models do not have a latent 802.11n card, only the Core2Duo Macs had the dormant N card which could be switched on with the enabler. Running the enabler on a CoreDuo machine would have no effect.

What about changing the whole card into a new.

Sure, QuickerTek has an internal replacement card, but it requires opening your computer. The other option would be to buy an external USB wireless card.
