I was wondering if anyone had some input into the Bigfoot Killer Wireless - N 1102, and 1103.
Is it worth it to upgrade to the 1103 or is the Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 good enough?
Thanks in advance.

I would say probably not. I upgraded from the Intel 1000 to the Killer 1102 and it was a huge difference, but the 6300 is already Intel's best card (or one of them). Plus, with the Intel card, you get WiDi capability, if you're interested in that.

I agree- while 1103 is a very good card i6300 is one too so an upgrade wouldn't be an especially noticeable one.

Here's what I wrote in another thread about my experience with the Killer-N 1102. With my opinion and $0.50 you could make a phone call, but just something to keep in mind.

I agree that their software needs some work. My laptop has a key on the keyboard to switch the radio on and off, and it has an LED to indicate power state, but the Killer software changed it to indicate activity, so now I have a furiously blinking LED on my keyboard and no way to disable it -
It can be disabled in registry or by editing inf file- instructions on how to do that are somewhere on laptop2go in a sub-section with Atheros wireless drivers.

I definitely think it should be a setting in the software itself. Lots of people don't feel comfortable mucking about in their registry. -
I read that the bigfoot killer had better wireless reach with the same antenna than most wireless card, can someone confirm this?

Does anyone know if the Killer network software is dependant on Windows 7 wlan config in the same way Intel's Proset is?

Hi guys, i just installed a bigfoot killer n 1102 in my asus n53sv. I have a ask you guys, i read everywhere that the main connector to the wifi card is the white one, and the aux is the black, that means white on the left, black on the right.
This is my third asus laptop and asus always uses the other way, black for the main, white for the aux.
Which way should i connect? -

now i have white as main, since the web is full of it, and black as the aux, but for piece of mind i'm going to switch to black main white aux.
