abferm Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Hey there, the small company I work for provides internet to customers via point-to-point wireless bridges. We have quite a few units that have started to malfunction. Inside these units are laptop style pci wireless cards which I believe to still be good. Does anyone know if there is an easy way to turn these cards into usb wireless adapters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeryth Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Unfortunately there is no way, the PCI and USB buses are just too different for such a conversion to make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trying Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 did you think about selling any of these .. what type of antennas do they have and whats the chipset on the board ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abferm Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 The bridges are NL-2611CB3 PLUS(DELUXE)s. The processor is a Ubicom IP2022/PQ80-120. The wireless cards say SL-2511CD PLUS EXT2 (F200) (TRANZEO) CYLFP. They use external antennas, and the wireless cards have two antenna ports the same style as on any internal laptop wireless card. It would be nice if I could make wifi pineapples out of them, but I don't think it is going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
