    You can buy a network card for around €10. You'll need to remove your PC's cover to install but it's very easy.

    Failing that, you can buy a wireless adapter for €30+ that utilises USB (2.0).

    If it hasnt an ethernet card it may be an old pc with only usb 1 on it - the ethernet card really is the best option if you can manage it.
