What I've bought is following adapter: http://allegro.pl/adapter-wifi-mini-pci-e-na-pci-e-3-anteny-kp13-i1429732145.htmlI'm using adapters form http://www.hwtools.net/ , they work pretty well for me, but they are also quite expensive.
Yeah, they have adapters few times more expensive than my one :( Yesterday my friend was nice (and brave :P) enough to let me open his notebook and test my card in it. Card was detected just fine in his Windows 7. Today I managed to test my adapter (with my Broadcom card inside) in some other PC with PCI Express x1. It was detected again! Motherboard in this PC is: Asus/Pegatron IPMTB-TK. So: 1) My Broadcom card is fine 2) My adapted is fine There must be problem with my motherboard/BIOS/PCI Express x1 slot. I'm much happier now when I know I don't need to return that adapters (I bought 2) :) -- Rafał
