Hello all,

I just bought a new mini-pci card for my laptop (Intel 2915ABG) but my
laptop has no 802.11a antenna.

Does anyone know where I can get one?

How good of one do you want. I don't think those cards have a place to hook
one.

I was hoping for an internal one if possible.  I know they are
possible, but cannot find any.

Due to FCC regulations it is illegal to have a removable antenna on a
radio utilizing the UNII 1 frequencey ranges.  So you will be unable to
add an antenna to the 802.11A radio.
