Netgear USB anapters, External antenna?

I've opened up a NetGear USB adapter like WG111T and would like to
connect a small external antenna. They have a U.FL connector and two
components labled ANT1 and ANT2 near them. Are these small surface
mount antennas? How well do they work?

Would I just plug into the U.FL connector to add an antenna or have to
remove the surface mount blocks?

I need the USB for a small test vehicle radio link and need to get more
gain and distance from the 802.11b/g

Thanks,
Jon

You could try this option... http://www.usbwifi.orcon.net.nz/

I made one with a wok... but the missus wanted it back :-(
