Hi guys, 

I just received this laptop and found out some bad and worse news in a matter of minutes.

Bad news: Lenovo crippled it with a garbage wifi card. My previous laptop was 10 years old and it had a better card than this! lol (dual band) 
Worse news: Lenovo are crooks and purposely lock-down the BIOS with a whitelist. (prior to today, I did not even know this existed!) (how can this be legal?) 

That said, a quick google search lead me to you guys here. I was wondering if someone can help me unlock this laptop so that I can replace its Wifi card? 

I literally just learned about this bios modding a few minutes ago, so I am also not quite sure what's really involved and the complexity of the job at hand. I am very familiar with command line, but I've never had the need for something like this before. 

I haven't purchased anything yet, but I would like to install a dual band card with AC speeds to match my modem. (if someone has a good recommendation of such a card, I'd greatly appreciate it!) 

Attached is a pic with bios details. Do I need to provide any further information? I would gladly donate if this task can be completed. 

Don't know if this is essential, but my laptop currently has a dual boot set-up (Linux Mint and Windows 10) using UEFI boot mode.  

Regards,

Hello!
I have two news for you!
Good new:your bios if fully moddable, you can install any adapter.
Bad new:your bios chip is rewrite protected,you need SPI PGM+Pomona SOIC8 clips.
Set your laptop to suspended mode and wake up it after few seconds.
Then run this tool as admin and upload results
