    go here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=19768 for details, but basically im upgrading my non-wireless notebook to wireless and to my knowledge there is not currently any antenna in it (looked around and didnt see any...inside that is). People are telling me it needs to be run arond the display? im guessing this gives it better reception or something? if so how would i go about doing this and if not other alternitaves?

    I've read somewhere you dont have to run it up the LCD, you can just run it around the motherboard..... not sure how well the reception will work on that but give it a go. But if not run it up the LCD follow the LCD Monitor cable or ribbon what ever it is. this should go along the hindge of the Notebook and run it up the side (both sides as there are 2 aerials) Let us know how it goes. :) good luck
