djcrazymonkey Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Unfortunately not. Although adapters may exist. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/122347-mini-pci-e-question/#findComment-865824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPimpin Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 You'll need an adapter card like the one at the very bottom of this page. The IA/MP1E, also known as the RouterBoard 11E. It says "wireless only, no 3G". The price seems reasonable. I was wondering about this myself, so thanks for asking. It made me finally look and see what's available. Make sure you know there are working drivers for whatever device you plan on plugging into it before you buy. It looks like there's no pigtail or antenna on it, so you'd have to buy those extra. It does look like there's a hole for the antenna connector (usually comes with a threaded mounting post when you buy a pigtail), but the picture isn't that clear.
