Just purchased a Latitude C610 from DFS. No OS. Plan to install W2K and
would like to add wireless. I have two questions. First any known problems I
might run into installing win 2K on this machine. Second, I know this model
does not have internal wireless option (think the D series is needed for
this) any recommendations from the group for wireless card?

Thank You
Howard

Thank you for the link and reply. Still have a question? Did you install
this in a C610? Where is the antenna? I didn't think the C series had an
antenna built into the case.

Thank You

If you remove the door where you put the memory you will see the slot for
the card. The antenna is there.
I have installed on C610 & C640. Tim

I got the card and am istalling it. Only problem is. There are two antenna
connections on the card one labeled main and the other aux. There are two
antenna leads in the PCI compartment one is long and the other short. They
are not labeled. Connectors are the same and either one could reach either
connector on the card. No info on the intel or Dell site. Do you know if it
makes a difference which lead goes to which connector on the card?
Thanks
Howard

I just put wires on without crossing them. There are guides to tuck the
wires in so they stay in place. It works ok for me. Tim
