XO-1.5 or 1.75
There are a number of incompatible WLAN modules which are the same size and use the same miniPCIe connector. The compatible module is only available from OLPC.
Instructions:
- disassemble the top Disassembly_top
- unplug the two tiny coax connectors vertically away from the board
- undo the single screw holding down the module
- unplug the module from the motherboard
- reassemble in the reverse order
- the software may not recognise the module without going through the first boot sequence so either delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent* or reflash the operating system
