Mounting structure of connector and method for mounting connector on substrate

A mounting structure comprising:

• a surface mounting connector including a housing and a plurality of terminals, wherein each terminal extends from the housing;
• a substrate including a plurality of lands, each of which corresponds to the terminal, wherein each land is disposed on the substrate, and wherein each land is electrically connected to the terminal with a bonding member;
• a plurality of support portions for supporting the connector on the substrate, wherein each support portion protrudes from the housing toward the substrate, and contacts a surface portion of the substrate;
• and
• a plurality of fixing members for fixing and positioning the connector with respect to the substrate, wherein each fixing member is connected to the housing, and contacts a part of the substrate, which is different from the surface portion of the substrate contacting the support portion, wherein
• each terminal is positioned on the substrate with a predetermined distance between the terminal and the substrate by the support portions and the fixing members.
