What goes in this WiFi slot?
On my motherboard i have a WiFi slot under my PCI slots. I read that it
takes wireless network cards to hook up to a wireless 802.11b card. But when i look for any WiFi cards online, they all go into PCI slots, or are for notebooks! what goes in this slot? the slot looks like a smaller black ide slot. i'm confused ~Brooks~ |

I recently added a Netgear PCI card to a system, but I could have used a PCI adaptor + PCMCIA card as an alternative. I chose the PCI card because it had a proper adjustable aerial. |
