    Networking Help!

    Hi All!

    I am running a 6 year old Dell Inspiron 5000 laptop and want to go wireless. I already have the Dell Wireless 2350 Broadband Router ready but need a network card.

    I have seen the notebook card below on the PC World website but im not sure if it will work with my PC!

    Thanks.

    As above...if it's got a PCMCIA port, which I imagine it does you should be fine.
    Belkin also supply drivers for Windows® 98 SE, 2000, Me, and XP and as your laptop is 6 years old, I'm guessing you're fine in that department too.
