Hi, Am I right to think the 600x will only use a 16 bit card? I can't seem to connect with our home network.From what I have read,it seems people put in an internal antenna,without the courage and knowledge to do this,is there an external antenna available?Thanks for any help,I'm running low on advil.

You are not correct. The entire 600 line will use 16-bit CardBus cards. An internal antenna is mighty cool, but not all that useful, and it is a pain to install (having done it myself).
I use a LinkSys WPC54G CardBus card in my 600X.

Hmmm, if the 600 only has 16-bit slots how can a 32-bit card like the WPC54G work in there ? Does it just fall back to 16-bit 802.11b ?

Woops again. I meant to say they will all use 32-bit CardBus cards. Eesh. Bad fingers!
