I think my antenna wire has come loose somewhere because my WiFi reception has recently gone to hell. How do i get to the Intel Pro Wireless 2200 Pro b/g card? I checked under the keyboard and the flap under the case (memory) and could not find it. I have a T42p.

If the layout is the same in teh T43, the Mini PCI card is towards the front between the PC Card bays on teh left and the hard drive bay on the right. The backup battery is just to the right of it.

Getting a hardware maintenance manual off the IBM/Lenovo site will make things clearer. The two antenna leads are towards the rear of the card.

It's below the keyboard:
