Does the 91P7317 module come with the antenna?

Thanks
No antennas are included. These are just the cards.

If you are lucky, they are built into your chasis. If not, you will need to get one off eBay.

If your system has built in wifi, just disconnect one antenna from your wifi card and attach it to the bluetooth module. BOTH will work just fine!

However, on some systems you will need to enable the BT with software, the Fn+F5 will not work and there is no switch on the bezel. It can be done. One of the IBM packages has an executable which will turn on the BT

BDCPWR.EXE

It is in one of the BT driver packages from the IBM site (don't remember which one) but it worked with both modules I tried.

You need to turn on the BT on each boot up, as I recall, but once on, it works just fine.

When you disconnect the "aux" antenna from the Wifi Card, is there a loss of signal for the wifi ?
