    Would it be possible for anyone to tell me about antenna cable connection to WLAN and WWAN Cards. I had a look at the Service manual but it looks like either it is wrong or I got short wires for WWAN Card in my laptop.

    The story.

    I had DELL service engineer to come and fix TV Antenna Connector on my system. Unfortunately I did not make not of the cable connection prior to his work. I thought he would know and relaid on him. But he didn't have any idea where to put the wires in and left it putting them in wrong place. Now my WLAN singnal is very low and droping.

    They service manual says white and black wires connect to WWAN card but those two wires are too short and could not connect them to WWAN card if I put the other two into WLAN. Therefore I need your help.

    There is White and Black triangle marks on WLAN. I would like to know what goes where. What colour cable connect to white triangle mark and what to black.

    Similarly, what colour cables connect to white and black triangle marks on the WWAN card. Or if you have got TV Card, I would like to know the cable connection for that.

    Thank you
