It will work with two, but you can purchase a third if you like. These are available from a wireless equipment specialist retailer. I went for one these which cost ~£6.

how do you put the partition back on again ?? the reason i ask is that i deleted it when i first got my nc10 to have one whole hard drive but i need to make the partition again for another OS
You need to use some dedicated partitioning software. Partition Magic or Acronis Disk Director, but they cost. PartedMagic is free.

Removed the link as advised, thought it would be alright seeing as OcUK doesn't sell wifi aerials.
Email me if you want a link.

In regards to battery life under w7, I swear mine is much less. On XP SP3 I'd hit 8hrs pretty much spot on. I'm lucky if I manage 5hrs or so under w7. It could be because I tailored XP's power control panel applet really well and haven't done so yet with w7.
Likewise. It was one of the things that put me off moving to 7 full time, though I have now done so. I'm wondering if it's possible XP wasn't entirely accurate with it's estimations of usage... and 7's a little better... I dunno, but I definitely can't get 7 anywhere near the estimated 9 odd hours that XP gave on a full charge, and that's not matter what I switch off or turn down.
Can anyone who has done the Wireless N upgrade confirm teh size of their Intel 5300 card? mine arrived today (as above) but it only connects at 54MB even after enabling auto channel widtha nd installing the latest Intel drivers.
My router is a DIR-655 and is set to G and N mode. I have set it to pure N mode and it detects the connection but fails to connect. It connects fine in 54G mode though.
My Intel 5300 card is a mini one, half the length of the stock card, perhaps I have bought the wrong Intel 5300?

Notice the model 533_AN? perhaps this variant of the 5300 won't work in N mode on the NC10?

Mines the same size as the original card and connectes at full speed on both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands.
Greeeat! and whilst using it tonight my left mouse button fails
Going to take it back to the shop tomorrow to see if they can do anything, the synamptics mouse software shows the left mouse button is stuck even though you can click it it's as if the microswitch is lodged in L.

Mine is a full size mini pci-e card. Both 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz bands work fine in n mode on my wrt610n. I get the full 300mbps on the 5.8ghz band with speeds of around 12-15mB/s and 150mbps with speeds of 4-6mB/s on the 2.4ghz band. On my dir-655 I get 130mbps and speeds of 1.5-3.5mB/s, the 655 is 2.4ghz only though but it has a better range in my house than the 610n.
I'm aware that the nc10 is picky about what wireless card is plugged in, the 4965agn doesn't work at all, the 3945 worked but with odd problems on the a band. My flatmate at uni bought a 5100 and had a few problems with that to start with but I managed to fix it with a bios update and new drivers.
The card you have is just a compact version of the full one but as with my experience with the 3945 it can work fine in some cases (2.4) but another mode failing to work at all. (5.8)
