        I’ve never seen anyone substantiating that, only rumors.

          I gotta figure out where I heard that. I may have conflated different issues with different tech.

          There’s no card, the modem is inside the and you have to perform surgery and peel off the panel, because they’re super fucking thin there’s no unscrew it and grab it from the empty middle part, which will very likely crack it if you’re not good and lucky.
