I used this guide to remove the stock antenna, learn my way through the PS3, and add a new external antenna. I removed the old one and bought an 8 inch 6 dbi antenna and a 12 inch R-SMA female pigtail adapter. Then drilled a hole with a 1/4" drill bit, attached the adapter, inserted the wire to the motherboard where the old one was connected, screwed on the antenna, and put everything back together. 5 times the internet speed!!! I did have to remove the power supply and disk drive however to get to the wire but still I never would have been able to complete this without the guide! Thanks to whoever did that! :D

Pretty good guide! I just replaced my wifi antenna on my old ps3. I have to say that it was pretty easy since I never opened an ps3 before.
