What are the differences between the Intel Wi-Fi Link 5100AGN - 802.11A/B/G/N Wireless LAN Module and the Intel Wi-Fi Link 5300AGN - 802.11A/B/G/N Wireless LAN Module? Should I get the more expensive one and will it be worth it?

The 5300 has additional antennas, and should theoretically have better range and signal reception. I haven't seen any actual tests/comparisions, so I don't know how much of a difference there really is.
I'm very happy with my 5300, so I'd say if there isn't that significant of a price difference, go for the 5300. -
Agree with the above. Just google Intel 5100 problems vs Intel 5300 problems its funny. Intel 5100 was only 300Mbps and Intel 5300 was 450Mbps which I love for my network. The Intel 5100 main problem I have dealt with and read is the disconnects. The sensitivity and wifi range with the 3rd ant on Intel 5300 has been better. I love the reliability and network speeds the Intel 5300 has. Was well worth the 40.00$.
Wireless card differences?
