Well in about 3 days I'll know. I just got the shipping conformation. I see no reason why it shouldn't. It's the same size as the TM1300 and I have that in the i8200 now.

Yup receive it on Thursday. Popped it in and it works fine. I installed the old TM1300 MPCI card  in my C610 and that worked fine also. I have since taken it out of the C610 because with the TM1300 card installed the fans came on more and ran longer. So i'll use the TM1300 PC slot card it that unit.

Side Note

I had problems with my connection dropping just after I'd boot the notebook, once I reconnected I never had a drop, It was very frustating to have to go to that notebook and reconnect. I took a look at my router setting and the "group key renewal" time was set to 3600 seconds, which is a hour. I changed that setting to 60 seconds and have not had 1 drop of the connection since. Hope that helps anyone reading this thread.

Did you get your 1350 and if so, how is it working?

Just installed mine & it works fine with Windows XP Pro SP2 but the Dell S/W won't install. Tells me: "No compatible H/W found. The S/W you are attempting to install is not supported on this system. The S/W will not be installed."

As you can see though, I'm online & typing this message so the standard Windows drivers might be working. I also had an old Dell PCMCIA Wireless card. Could be grabbing that driver.

Good Luck.

Open the setup.ini file in the driver, after downloading it and extracting it. Scroll to the very bottom. Delete the lines starting with device1 and device2. Rename device3 to device1. Delete &subsys and everything after it on both of the remaining lines. Save and exit. Run setup and it will work.
