are you aware of any compatible upgrades for a faster speed, like a dual band 5ghz card? from what im gathering its probably not worth the trial and error, because the antenna is designed probably for just 2.4ghz, so i'm thinking a usb dongle is the best option but wondering what your thoughts are? great guide btw
