Wireless network cards

Wireless network cards are usually employed by laptop users to connect to a wireless access point. These cards are in the standard notebook PCMCIA form. PC users are also able to use these cards with the correct adaptor. These cards are available from all manufacturers and prices have dropped as well as their speed having increased. Many manufacturers bundle these cards with other products such as router. It is important to look for a card that is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g networks. This will ensure compatibility with older networks.
