Title: DIR-655 Antenna Connectors
Post by: Sammydad1 on September 01, 2009, 09:27:08 PM

Hi,

Anybody know if the unit's antenna connectors are soldered to the motherboard or are they more "friction" mounted into the unit's case ?

Reason I ask is that one of my antenna connectors seems to be loose when you move it like to remove the antenna.... If it is supposed to be soldered to the motherboard, as I might suspect, I am thinking that it might cause some signal loss....

Seems so http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/content/view/30726/96/ if it supposes to be the same A4 as pictured. Older revs antenna connectors are mounted though.

In Rev A2 they are mounted to the case:

Hi,

WOW !!  Thanks for those pics/links....  Exactly what I needed !!!

Looks like they are mounted to the case using one of those connectors and nut to tighten it down....guess one of my nuts is loose.
