Does anyone know if the 801.11b and 801.11g have the same antenna sockets. So for example if i purchased a extention antenna labelled as a "801.11b extention antenna", would it happily plug into and work in a 801.11g weridless card.
Any advice greatly received.
Thanks.
It depends on the brand, they are not a universal fit, different manufacturers will attach their antennas to their cards with different methods/sockets.
If you buy an extension from the same people who make you wireless card though it sould fit ok.
Both the card, and the extention antenna i was looking to buy were from belkin.
It is more likley that the Connectors are Compatable.. ithe connector issue is more a brand/application issue.. be aware that if your card is a PCMCIA card (or Card bus) there may not be a socket for this and if there is it will not be compatable with the aerial.. my d-link card required a short adapter lead to go from the Card socket to a rp-sma plugQuote:
