kindle dxg wireless

I was recently giving a Kindle DX. It is a U.S. version, so the wireless won't work here in Canada. I purchased a motherboard for Kindle DXG, and installed in with a wireless module I had from a Kindle Keyboard -- it is the same one used in the DXG, I verified that. I used the SIM card that came with the motherboard (and I also tried others)

Here's my problem. I can get a weak 3G connection, which I verified by going to the Kindle Store. But I am unable to register the Kindle. Each time I try, with my Amazon sign-in info, I get a message that the Kindle is unable to connect. I've tried a few dozen times, tried restarts, changed SIM cards. No love.

When I check the 611, it confirms that I am connected to the Telus network, the same one that works here for my Kindle Keyboards. Maybe I screwed up the antenna connection? Is there any known reason I can't seem to register it? I like to get newspapers delivered to my Kindles, and this big sucker would be great for that.

Thanks
