WL110 - Connector Type
I recently purchased a WL110 and noticed that Compaq listed their external antennae connector as proprietaty. Does anyone know what this connector looks like and how truly proprietary it really is?

I'm planning on constructing a couple of homebrewed ant's and need to know the best way to connect to the external port on this card.

Any help with issue is truly appreciated

wl110 connector
This is the same as lucent/orinoco. Save yourself hours of searching and frustration by buying a pre made pigtail. They are available in lengths up to 5 feet from antennasystems.com. There are dozens for sale on ebay, fab corp, etc. As for the antenna end, buy a bunch of female "bulkhead" type N connectors. These have 2 or 4 mounting holes on a larger flange. Very easy to mount them.

There are a few companies selling the proprietary lucent connector, at about $10 each. Add the cost of cable, crimping tools, etc, and its no bargain. This forum has dozens of posts on people looking for these damm things.
