How can I find out if my computer has a network card ??
Thanks
Thanks
Do you have high speed internet? (or check control panel)
Ow well,Praetor said:I suspect you dont have a network card as miniport generally designates something else
The second one has. Thats my sisters. Looks like I will have to folk out some money on a network card.Yeti said:The first one, like Praetor said, probably doesn't have a network card. The second one probably does since it has a Realtek adapter installed.
Prices are quite reasonable.Yeti said:I would just get a PCI card, probably a 10/100 Mbps:

or if you wanted you could get gigabit for not much more:

If you didn't want to install a PCI card you could use a USB adapter though I've never tried one:

Get a 10/100 NIC, you can easily find them for roughlyy $20Sorry, another question.
What speed/type should I look at getting?
i have been looking at ones like 1/11MB and done know whether this is good or not.
