Laptops: Many laptop computers and mobile computing devices come with a Wi-Fi radio built in. They’re ready to operate wirelessly. For most other laptops you will insert a simple PCMCIA card – commonly called a PC Card – into the laptop’s expansion slot. USB wireless options are widely available as well. Desktops: The simplest method is to use a USB (Universal Serial Bus) wireless solution that plugs into an available USB port on your desktop computer. If you have no available USB ports on your system, you need to install a PCI or ISA bus solution. Another option is to install an additional USB PCI card and use one of those additional USB ports for your USB wireless device. PDAs: Personal Digital Assistants like Palm, Visor and Pocket PC are readily available with either built in wireless capabilities or they have a slot capable of using either a PCMCIA or Flash wireless solution.
