I'm going through my m170 and looking for ways to upgrade it before I give it to my fiancee (I just got a new M1730). Is there a wireless adapter that fits in this beast (m170) and supports 802.11n?

Thx.

Cool. Tracked down something from there that I think/hope will work just fine. My original searches didn't find that info and google (for once) wasn't very helpful. Thx.

The M170 and M1730 using different wireless card. The M1730 using express mini PCI. I used to have the M170, so I know. The M1710 and M1730 using the same type of express mini card BTW.

Yeah, I'm aware of that, but thanks. I'm ordering a card for the M170 to go from G to N and think I'm all set. I'll update this with a status when the card arrives and I get the laptop together again. It's down waiting for a new vid card too.
