Hi,
Could you help me verifying WiFi/BLUETOOTH cards' compatibility criterion please?
To be more specific, I'm wondering if the MOTHERBOARD chipset is the only component that limits the use of WiFI/Bluetooth cards on a laptop.
Even more specific.
I obtained a Samsung R580 laptop(MoBO: BA92-06128B; Chipset: HM55; Original Wi-FI card(that has no Bluetooth): BA59-02572A(to the best of knowledge)) came without a Wi-FI card in it. My Internet research showed that the original WiFi is BA59-02572A. I got one and installed. Later on I found that it has no Bluetooth either. Again I found in Inet that those of R580 with originally installed Bluetooth cards are coming with a separate BTU1040-D99 card, which TURNED out to be hard to get and yet expensive.
Again in Inet I learnt that there are a LOT of COMBO (WiFI/Bluetooth) cards available. So now I'm wondering which one to buy. For instance there is Broadcom BCM94313HMGB ones, that at least according to http://www.laptopking.com/searhbrandresults.asp?brand=samsung, are installed in Samsung R780 RF510. Those Samsung R780 RF510 have the same chipset as mine has HM55. Can I surely get that card?

Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards
