Replace Wireless Card in Latitude D600

Hello,

 

I have a five year old Latitude D600 with an Intel Pro/Wireless 2100 B LAN adapter. I want to replace it with a 2200 B/G adapter. It's accessible via a flap on the underside. There are two wires attached to the top of the card, and the ends are small (and my eyesight isn't very good); I can't tell whether they are soldered points or jumper pins. I pulled gently on one and it didn't come off, and I was afraid to pull harder for fear of breaking it if it is soldered.

 

Does anyone know if these wires are soldered? I've read reports of people replacing these on their own, and they haven't mentioned soldering, but I don't know for certain.

 

Thanks.

The antenna wires aren't soldered to the card - twist them gently as you pull them off.
