I just got a new Pro book 4530s and I cant make the WiFi work, I was really expecting to get it all running but I just cant, it comes with the TX2-RTL8188CE and it doesn't recognize it at all, is there any solution or do I need to buy a new WiFi card, if so, which one should i buy?

This one: SPS: 593127-001. This is Atheros 9285 + Bluetooth combo card and it's the only one, which is well supported in OSX (unlike the rest cards, which are sold with this model).

The RTL8188CE wifi isn't supported. You can't make it work. You need to replace it with an Atheros one.

Yes, that's the card (if the description is true).

i just got one of these from the same seller, it took a while to get here. it is brand new and working pretty well so far

haven't tested the bluetooth yet but it seems to be working
 
Ok, i will order the card and post back when i it arrives, as @Opty said, it might take a while since it comes all the way from china.
Also, im wondering if i buy a USB wifi card like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/300Mbps-USB-Wif ... 4844be166e#shId will it work?
 
well it took a really long time but the wifi card arrived, i installed it and its working like a charm, its really easy to change and even tho it took a lil more than a month to arrive it was all really good, i wanna thank everyone that helped and if there is something i can help let me know, thanks again
 
Thanks for the info philip_petev. I also found the part number for the Atheros wifi card posted in other threads as well. Will buy from the source to replace my card.
