After relocating D-link 624+ router and cable modem from basement to 1st floor, I got the power supplies mixed up and fried the router. Instead of tossing it in the trash, I thought i would disassemble router to possibly fix it. Upon opening i found a circuit board with PCMICA slot on it with a PCMICA card with 2 wired antennas plugged into the slot. I removed the card and inserted it into a laptop and found it has twice the range my D-link DWL-650 card. Great for wardriving!!! Im so happy
