Hi!
Now i'm looking for a WLAN CompactFlash card for my Zaurus for which i can screw off it's antenna. I did take a look at FAQ, but all these WLAN cards only have an internal antenna. That wouldn't be bad if there would be connector for external antenna. Does anyone know such a WLAN CF card with connector for external antenna which does run with Zaurus (Openzaurus or some other Zaurus Embedded Linux)? bye |

You'd have to modify one. |

The ones you find inside are for testing the radios at the factory. |
