Hi I put a Intel 2200BG mini-pci in my 240X yesterday and it works fine but it has no antenna so range is very short. I have two options, buy a mini-pci antenna and mount it inside the machine some where, probably attach it the keyboard as it has a large metal surface. The other thing I had seen is a 'pigtail' cable. It has a mini-pci connector on one end and has a normal desktop antenna connector on the other end. You then attach a large antenna like you would find on a desktop machine or on the back of a router like a D-Link or other with detachable antenna. This would obviously need fixing in somehow and from what I have seen is mounted through the modem port which is now redundant. What would be the best way to go. I installed the mini-pci card because I wanted to free up the PCMCIA slot so I would like to get this work. Any advice.
