Wireless network card

RAA_Kr1cH · 31-August-04, 03:23 AM

Ok heres the deal, I am building a custom case for a mini-itx board. Thanks to the help of some people on here I have determined that the new p4 mini-itx would best suit my needs. My question is that the mobo only comes with one pci slot, and as I will be using that for a video card how can I get wireless network? The board has a plug on it for the cable, is there anyway I can plug something in there that will then give me wireless? I do have enough room in the case for plenty of other hardware, I just needed the mini-itx because of the overall dimensions

Get a wireless USB adapter. There's plenty of these on the market.

And if you didn't want to use s USB port, you could always go the more expensive route of a wireless bridge. LINK

I know they are a little bit faster than the USB, but you couldn't take full advantage of that anyway unless you have a wireless g/a network.

Unholy...
I noticed that you live in Bloomington, I just drove back from there from Columbus. A friend and I went there and went to Denny's and drove back. (despite the fact that we have a Denny's in Columbus)
