Any hint, which MiniPCI devices are supported by the latest BIOS version? Does the support of MiniPCI depend on the BIOS at all, when using Linux? AFAIK, the Linux Kernel has "BIOS independet" access to HW devices? --UPCYCLING@gmx.net


I suspect your limited to just the modem it came with, certainly an Ethernet card would not work, since you do not have the physical port, a WiFi card might work, if the BIOS does not have a whitelist, but you would not have any antenna for it.

There are MiniPCI wireless cards that come with a little antenna board to be builtin to the notebook. But i doubt you would find a place within the 240 to fit it.
