I've added the sma connector (I didn't found that the gnet people used).
Other probs they talk about 150pF smd capacitor, but I've found only 100 and 220pF, I've used the 220.

All seems to work correctly, without ext antenna the card continue to receive a lot signal, but I cannot verify it cause I don't find a sniffer that support this card (apsniff tell me that this is not a prims2 card).

PS: the cable used in pigtail is rg174 ?
i tried apsniff and it didn't work even thought IT IS a prism2 card.
but kismet works great with it.

the reason it still picks up lots of signal without the antenna is the guerilla.net guys didn't disconnect 1 of the built in antennae.
i've updated my USR2410 web page with the info i've discovered at

if you want to know how the manufacturer actually handles the antenna jack; they disconnect both internal antennae, unlike the guerilla.net guys.
