I have an X30 (2672-42U) in very good condition. It does not come with a built-in wireless card but I can put one in for you. Do not know how much I should charge. 350 sound OK?

Edit: this model does not have built-in antenna.

Or you have mPCI + antenna both handy ?

Tx again

You are right. There is not built-in antenna. I opened the keyboard minutes ago. I have never put a mpci card in it as my daughter is using it and I disabled the internet access.

Tx, tiger

Do you think that this project is doable anyway, install antenna + mPCI, (and deal with some 1802,1803 errors) ?

I think it is doable. For the 1802 error, I think you can buy an IBM card to avoid the hassles.

but I need still intall antenna ? that part is in a big question, as I think that antenna should go around/inside lid ?

I did it to mine a while back. Reception was crappy, but I didn't get any error codes.
