Latitude C600 Wireless WI FI connection..

Question

Hi,  I need help with getting connected to a WiFi free cafe or even Starbucks. I am not sure what I need to do. What kind of wireless card needs to be installed?. Where/how do  I install it?.. Do I need to reconfigure my system so it allows me to use both a dial up and a wireless connection?. Thanks for any help..:smileyhappy:

Take a look at this Service Manual Guide :

Your C600 has allowance to slot in a "mini-pci" wireless card.

The only model for your laptop seems to be :

Dell True Mobile 1150 Series Mini-PCI Card
