    Anybody have any idea where the wireless antenna wire is routed on a L25-S1196? I installed the wireless card today but there's no wires & it's getting a very, very weak signal setting next to the router! I've had the screen apart & didn't see any wires there, so I'm wondering if I'm gonna have to take the whole lappy apart & route some wires to the screen??... Anyone have any better idea's?

    Not all of these laptop came with the wireless feature. The system board may have the slot for the wireless card but not the antenna. Typically the wireless antennea wire set is under the LCD display

    I was able to route the wires through the motherboard by taking the keyboard off & fished them through to the card. Also dimantled the screen & taped the leads to the inside of the lid casing, So I'm getting an excellent signal now at about 30 feet away from the router.
