802.11 ac upgrade
I am looking to upgrade the wifi card in my Latitude e6510 Laptop to one with the ability to use all of the viable protocols including 802.11 ac. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Laptop wifi is on the mainboard. Add an inexpensive usb ac adapter to access your ac router.

Thanks for your suggestion. I would rather not do that since there are a limited number of USB ports and I don't have a problem with getting inside a computer and replacing components.

I just ordered this today, I'm hoping the BT works:
www.amazon.com/.../B00N7474CS
If you get the same, forums advise you have to download both the wireless *and* the BT drivers:
downloadcenter.intel.com/search
FYI, there is no difference in the similar model (www.amazon.com/.../B00MV3N7UO) except a higher price point:
www.amazon.com/.../1
Hope that helps.
