Still stuck on #2

Funny how things go!
I originally ordered a UXGA display but got Gunshy and changed my order to the XGA+. I ordered originally on Dec.31 and made the change on the following Monday.

The original order went to PreProduction in a day. This order hasn't moved from Order Processing!! They are still claiming a Jan.10 ship date though. Hopefully I haven't screwed things up too bad!!

Ok iv just unpacked the laptop!!!!!!!!

Iv been using it for 30 minutes, just fooling around and cursing at all the things
Dell has pre-installed. And iv got to say that the LCD has no problems at all. Im definitely a happy customer if everything turns out to be working.

I will post Highres photos and a more indepth uh..blurb? later on tonite after iv formatted it and set everything up properly

now iv come across a minor problem
i cant get the wireless to pick up any available networks :S

i opened up the lid to where the wireless card is, and i saw two cables seemed to be loose..now im not sure so i took a photo, if anyone of you guys know this stuff, would appreciate if you could let me know if everything looks as it should in there.

heres the url to the photo, excuse the high res/blurryness. i kinda snapped it.

Yeah, I can confirm: that's a blurry shot

Looks like the white antenna cable is disconnected to me. And maybe the black one too. I think those small "main" and "aux" terminals are where the antennae go.

I don't remember, but if I were you, I'd check the online service manual.
