ummm.... I have a "Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter 54Mbps, 802.11g,
Mfr #WPC54G" -- admittedly not the latest version -- but there's no "pop
out connector" or any other place to connect an external antenna.

Oh !   :-(

....a bit of clarification here I think :-)   I have a WAG354G router, and it
a has a "pop-out" reverse SMA connector for an natenna to increase range.

....A friend recently bought the same type WAG354G and also a Linksys
Wireless-G Notebook Adapter / pcmcia card for his laptop.   He's not getting
much range, prolly due to a whacking great filing cabinet in his office and
the router sat between a CRT monitor and speaker !  ...I told him to
relocate it, which he says he did, and that didn't improve things much.

Whilst rummaging around the web looking for antennas for him, I sort of got
the idea that there must be connectors for rubber antennas on pcmcia cards
like those here on this web page, (lower down).
