    Hello just a quick query regarding the standard Wireless modem Eircom ship the Netopia.

    I need to get a wireless card for my PC it's a small form factor CPU unit (not a tower) so full sized Graphics cards won't fit in.

    What recommendations do you have for a card I'd require? including any specifications like B or G or some such?

    oh and if anyone know the model number can they bang it on here, i've read on a few posts about a 3547w ?

    cheers in advance.

    If a card isn't suitable why not try a usb device.

    Try Komplett or DABS for some ideas

    Wireless network cards internally are tiny, if you have a spare slot it should fit fine. USB ones are okay, but I've found the internal ones with the antennae seem to have a better range. Komplett have loads, I bought a belkin one for a neighbour recently incl shipping was 40. Could have been cheaper but he wanted a brand name.
