wireless usb
« on: August 20, 2006, 02:38:54 PM »
I have a built in wireless adapter in my laptop. I am looking for some kind of usb antenna so when i am out and about i can connect to networks. I have searched high and low and cant find the proper thing.
Lots of antennas but they hook to the router. If anyone knows where i can find something like this let me know. thanks.

A properly functioning and onfigured card does not need this.

    I doubt the built in wireless has the option of connecting an antenna. You would need to get a PCMCIA card that has this option and possibly a high gain antenna.
