Step 6

  • Disconnect the WLAN (Wi-Fi) antenna cables.
  • These cables connect like button snaps, so just unsnap them by tugging lightly or gently prying them up away from the WLAN card.
  • Gather the antenna cables (black, white, and grey) and unwind them from the clips they are pinned under to keep them from rattling around.
  • The grey cable may be attached or unattached to the WLAN card depending on the number of antenna cables your card supports.
  • Remove the single screw (Philips #0).
