Is it possible to attach a wifi antenna somewhere on my PC?


Hi there,

I have these two wifi antenna's from a broken modem.
Is it possible to solder these somewhere on my internet receiver card of my PC?
It's a built-in receiver without any visible antenna.

And if it would be possible, would it give me a much better signal?

Thanks in advance,

I wouldn't try it... receivers are pretty cheap... you can get a mini USB receiver for around $25... just get a new receiver. (You can also get internal wifi antennas.)

Well in that case... you probably could, but good luck with the soldering... you'll need it! ;)
