Internal Wireless Card
I recently bought a B120 notebook computer for my wife. It was a prebuilt system and I was not able to configure it the way I would have liked. I did order the Wireless 1390? card with it, but I would much rather have an internal card for this. Can anyone tell me what card I can buy and where to buy it? The notebook has the centrino M chip with 512G of RAM (I added 256 myself). Thanks.

It is my understanding from reading other messages on this forum, that unless you order the B-120 with an internal wireless card, it does not have the built in antenna, thus making it difficult to add an internal wireless card. Apparently Dell will sell you the internal antenna, but installation is difficult, involving nearly complete disassembly of the computer.

The simplest alternative right now (because the Express Card wireless network cards are not yet available) is to get a USB wireless network adapter. A USB adapter will work on just about any computer.
