Введение
The three WiFi antenna are very fragile and sensitive. Be very careful when removing and replacing them, as touching the replacement antenna can cause them to not function at peak efficiency. The old antenna do not require the same care, though you should avoid bending or forcing to remove the antenna because they could snap and ruin the device. Also be careful with the metal attached to the antenna can bend and cause the metal casing to not fit back together with the other pieces.

Thanks for the guide.
Pulled mine apart to examine the battery inside. It measured above 3.1 volts - even though it has been in use since June 2008 (about 9 years).
Holes will be punched for access to the 5 screws so the rubber pad does not have to be removed if it needs to be opened in the future.
I may see about buying a new Ac adapter to power this Airport Extreme since that is probably why the status light on the front did not illuminate.
Completed this. Didnt use apple replacement antennas. Added 3 U.FL Mini PCI to RP-SMA Pigtails, drilled 3 holes and mounted 3 +9db antennas. My wifi finally reaches my garage
