<br>
I have a current project where I want to use mini PCIe E-slot<br>
(atheros) wifi cards in a custom WiFi access point. Ideally some kind<br>
of converter/adapter to usb3. Googling doesn't show anything that works<br>
- there are loads of simple PCIe WWAN but they are not compatible for<br>
WLAN - there are apparently usb and/or data protocols involved with WLAN<br>
cards not using the usb ones.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a suggestion of something that would work?<br>
