Linksys WPC54G Version 3 External Antenna

Hello, this forum was a large help to me while I was doing this project, so it only seemed right to create a user name and post here for others to see and get ideas from.

The card initially had a female U.FL connector on the board. I found a male U.FL connector and wire in an old laptop. I removed the female U.FL and soldered on the Male. I removed the SMA connector from an old PCI Wireless Card and soldered it to the wire, center wire to the inner pin and shield wiring to an outer pin. Then I wrapped up the extra wire, closed it up, and taped it with some scotch tape.

The finished product works great. Thanks for the info.
