Atheros chipset, 802.11ac / a/b/g/n miniPCI express radio card, half size [Fixed]

Hardware Questions and Recommendations

Dear friends,

My laptop wireless card is Intel chipset and is not well supported, so I would like to replace it. This quite a heck, because there is a whitelist of authorized network card and I need to flash coreboot to remove the list.

I am looking for a Atheros chipset, 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n miniPCI express radio card, half size, with two antenna connectors. I am running Linux, this is why I would prefer atheros chipset.

Any idea? Something comparable to the WLE600VX

but in half size.

Amazon and other websites don't tell what chipset is being used, so I prefer to ask here.

Kind regards,
