Upgrade Guide
Here's how to hook up your PCs in a wireless network, step by step.
Buy the Right Network Adapters
You'll need one add-in card for each desktop PC and one PC Card for each notebook. For the desktops, use PCI cards if they're available and your PC has a free PCI slot. PCI cards offer the easiest and most reliable Plug and Play setup.
Unlike wired networks, which let you mix and match add-in cards and PC Cards from different manufacturers, wireless networks need matched cards from the same manufacturer.
