Hello Group,
I have a WIN2K laptop and a PCMCIA card. There is no way to
attach an external ant on it. What cards are out there that can use an
external ant and are also compatable with Net Stumbler?

Thanks

Well which PCMCIA card is it as a number can be modified to have an
external antenna connector and quite a lot of people don't notice the
little cap on the end of the Orinoco (and clones).

I've an Orinoco Silver pcmcia and have built my own waveguide antenna (dead
easy !) and I'm just waiting for the pigtail to arrive before I start using
it :0)

Orinoco cards have antenna jacks & work with most Sniffers
