I have an old IBM P3 laptop that I want to make wireless. I purchased an Intel 2200BG internal card and installed it in the internal miniPCI slot. Installed the drivers and it works great. Great that is, when it is six inches away from the Access Point. If I go any more than a few feet from the AP, I lose the signal altogether. There were no leads to hook up an antenna to the miniPCI card, so I'm thinking this is the problem. Is there any way to rig up an antenna, or is this something that must be on the laptop the begin with?
EDIT - Found this. How does one install it? Surely the laptop must support it, correct?
