Installing the Mini-PCI Card  
Note  
Because Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter can be  
damaged by static electricity, it is shipped in a static-protective bag.  
v Do not open the static-protective bag until you are replacing the  
Mini-PCI Card.  
v Touch the package to a metal table or a grounded metal object before  
removing the Mini-PCI Card from the bag. This action reduces any  
static electricity from the package and from your body.  
For information on how to install or remove the Mini-PCI Card, see the online  
user’s guide contained on your ThinkPad computer.  
To connect the cables to the Mini-PCI Card, refer to the drawing below  
Note: Plug the gray antenna cable with the tab marked “MAIN” into jack M,  
and the black antenna cable with the tab marked “AUX” into jack A.  
Installing the device driver  
If your computer is a wireless upgradable model, and you are installing the  
Mini-PCI Card for the first time, you need to install the device driver for the  
Card.
