Newegg has what I need but they don't ship internationally

Post by AuraAllan » Tue Nov 04, 2008 7:26 am

Hi there,

I really need this WiFi module for the NC81-LF board in my new build.

Problem
Newegg seems to be the only retailer of this product (in the world) and they don't ship internationally.

Solution
Any help from one of the US citizens around here?

Or..............maybe someone can find another retailer that sells this WiFi module. I know I can't :cry:

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Or ... you explain why this is the only one in the world that meets your demands, and we have a better chance at finding an alternative for you. :)

Because I have previously searched for other WiFi (n) modules with the 11-pin jack interface but couldn't find any.
I figured this was the only one.

When I was overseas the best way to get around this was to have it shipped to someone in the U.S., and then have that person ship it to you. However, this is difficult if you don't know anyone in the U.S.

Have you tried contacting Jetway directly?

Yes. It was about a month ago though.
They told they would contact me when the device would be available in my area. The haven't contacted me.
I'll try emailing them again.

Ask if you can purchase it directly from them. This has worked in the past for me with a few companies, they may be willing to let you do that.

I have arranged with Jetway that a german retailer I use sometimes will contact me once he gets the module in stock.

Next time I encounter this situation I will try and see if I can buy the module directly from company.

Thanks.
