    Mine didn't come with the 802.11 mini pci radio originally. I don't see the OEM antenna cable in the bay so I'm assuming it was built without it. (or am I looking in the wrong place?) I installed a radio and added the software and drivers. Appears to work fine I just need to add the antenna(s). I have the necessary connectors and cables. There are two connections on the card primary and secondary.

    Is the OE antenna tucked up underneath something that I can't see?

    Any suggestions on where to mount the antennas? Must be outside the case?

    Do I need both antennas or is just the primary sufficient?

    TIA. :confused:
