Replace wifi card after crystal HD?

Legacy 1st gen Apple TV
1

Hi all – a while back I replaced the video/wifi card on my silver apple tv with a crystal HD card to watch 1080p video on xbmc… at that point I had the box connected to my router using the ethernet connection so didn’t miss the wifi connection. Like an idiot, I put the original card somewhere and then moved and it got lost in the shuffle. I now want to reconnect my appletv to a different TV where I can’t use ethernet and can’t connect wirelessly with the crystal HD card in place. Does anyone know if it’s possible to get another original wifi card (and if so, from where) or I could somehow install a usb wifi connector to restore this functionality?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Unfortunately these are relatively hard to come by. There were quite a few on eBay when the Crystal HD option for Apple TV first came out, but I just did a quick search and couldn’t find a single one.

The Mac mini wifi card may work, but I couldn’t say for sure.

If you get skunked, feel free to shoot me a PM as we may be able to dig one up here.

Hi jcvessey. I am actually new to the appleTV scene and was thinking of ordering a crystal card. Coming across your thread maybe we could swap? Which card is it? PM me
