Internal WiFi for the X20 (pic)

#1 Post by Quattro » Sun Jun 18, 2006 6:51 pm

I've acquired some T30 antennas, and they fit nicely behind the X20 LCD panel, for a full integrated solution. Just thought someone might like to know. Got an Intel a/b/g card to go with it.

Now I just need a new inverter...

I'm waiting for an inverter before I can re-install everything. Will post more details later.

Secure

I think you just secure them down each side of the LCD and run the wires under the keyboard.

I'm sure it's not difficult, but with a modification such as that there is not really room for error. You don't want the lines being bent at the hinges or interfering with the lcd cable. So I'd really would like a guide :)

this should provide you with all info you need, I am afraid that a real step-by-step guide doesn't exist online...
