This page shows some of the modifications I have done to my hardware. Not much in the way of explanations yet, but I want to get the site up and running, then I can concentrate on the finer details. Of course I would be happy to answer any questions and help people with their mods.
 
D-Link DWL660 PCMCIA 802.11b Wireless Card
This was the first one I modded. The results were great. Coupled with a 5dBi mag-mount antenna sure mad a heap of difference.
 
Netgear WG511 802.11g Wireless PC Card
This was the third one I did, the second was a guys from WA that posted it to me. I wasn't happy with the performance the first time I did it and pulled it open again. Turns out I had soldered over a small through PCB trace that looks like it would be for an external antenna on a different revision of the board. I had inadvertently shorted the antenna out! Its all good now though and works great. Notice the direction of the coax coming from the card. I found that with the dlink, it was pressed up against the car seat and bending it in a way that I didn't like. It sits real nice this way.
