Ethernet port
I need an ethernet port to hook up for DSL. Does my Dell Dimension L933r have such a port?
How do I do this?
Thanks.

bobmpc,
Your Dimension L933R most likely does not have an ethernet port. To add an ethernet port, you will need to purchase a PCI network card and install it into one of the open PCI slots inside your computer. A network card can be purchased from a local computer store or an online vendor such as zipzoomfly.com, newegg.com, tigerdirect.com or any of a number of others. Here are several examples of compatible network cards which will work in your system:

Instructions for opening your computer case and installing the PCI card can be found at this link:
