No PCMCIA slot in laptop. Need help

[Franklin S Werren]

There is a Linksys Wireless Adaptor that
uses a USB port.
I have purchased them at Wal-Mart several times.

>From the Dell website:

"If I want 802.11g wireless for my Dell notebook, what do I need to buy?
Dell offers an 802.11g external Express card for select notebooks that come
equipped with an Expresscard slot and 802.11g or 802.11a/g internal wireless
cards for notebooks both at point of sale with your notebook purchase and
via customer kit after point of sale. "

There seems to be other cards available as well.  Google is your friend.

I think you're stuck.  There used to be an adapter sold but it's off the
market now and might be available via eBay, etc.  I can't even recall the
manufacturer.  When I contacted them previously they stated there were so
many problems with the card they dropped it.  There's a couple of places
that might have one RSN (Real Soon Now).
