Hey guys

My pismo airport is always dropping in and out.....i changed cards, and it still happens....I assume it's an antenna issue....and noticed that when I press near the base of the screen, the connection gets full, for a second.

So, I'm thinking the issue is where the antenna in the screen attachs somewhere inside, near the base of the screen.

Does anyone know how I can get at this, and see what's up? And, hopefully, repair it?

This guide will show you how to take apart the Pismo to get at the connections you want:

That should be all you need. Ask any other network related questions (like what happens if this doesn't fix it) in the Networking forum.
