How to connect an antenna to the KPC680

barefeats

I recently got a free upgrade from Verizon from a USB720 to a KPC680 ExpressCard/34. I understand it has external antenna ports but --- where are they?

We are updating our antenna tip sheet because it is fairly "different" how it hooks up. I actually broke a KPC680 a few months ago, when I was trying to find the antenna ports, so be careful!

I have the KPC680 with Alltel service, I ordered the Freedom Antenna Booster from 3gstore.com and received it today. After connecting the antenna to the KPC680 in the outer most antenna port the KR1 would reboot after being connected after a few seconds. Connecting the antenna to the inner most port produced the same result. Disconnecting the antenna it would connect and stay connected.

Anybody with the KPC680, KR1 and alltel service have an external antenna connected yet?

The antenna adapter that I got from Verizon comes with a replacement piece for the port cover. It serves as a locking device for the connector and appears to make the insertion work better.
