Adding wireless mini PCI to Presario 2100US.
I have a Presario 2100US, I got a Compaq/HP mini PCI wireless card (Broadcom)
to put into my laptop. However, I do not see the antenna wires. Are they tucked away in my case or do I need to buy them too? Thanks, Tim Lange West Lafayette, IN USA |

Are they tucked away in my case or do I need to buy them too? My Presario 3010US came with a Broadcom Wi-Fi tranceiver that has no visible antenna. With Windows XP, it Just Works. Now, if I could just get the damn thing to work under Linux.... Yes, I know about ndiswrapper. I have what seems to be the correct Windows driver to wrap in it. I just can't get it to _do_ anything but report that it has been installed. I may wind up pulling the Broadcom card and buying something whose manufacturer hasn't sworn allegience to Microsoft. |
