Hi
I've built many systems but never had to fit one of these things as I've always hard wired the router straight to the pc, but I'm helping a friend set up a home network and the pc is a fairly old machine running xp (I think), we already have the wireless router set up to his wireless devices.
I'm looking at simply buying a PCI wireless network adaptor from the ocuk shop, sticking it in and connecting the the wireless network, will obviously install some extra drivers if need be.
Is it that simple? Any network card recommendations?
