The fine folks over at HardMac have written up a spiffy guide to upgrading your non-Core 2 Duo MacBook or MacBook Pro to 802.11n!

Some of you may be aware that The Core 2 Duo MacBooks and Macbook Pros were shipped with 802.11n-capable cards, but Apple only recently released the update that enabled this functionality.

What you may not know is that the Airport card in these Core 2 Duo MacBooks and MBPs are the standard reference Broadcom BCM94321MC PCI Express design. You might get lucky and find the genuine Apple part (#020-5281-A) from a reseller, or you can just call up Dell and order the Dell Wireless 1500 part upgrade, since it's the exact same card. You should be able to pick one up from Dell for $56.00.

Enjoy!
