Presario 2700 problem

I would like to install wifi mini PCI card on my presario 2700.

Does any one knows which mini PCI wifi card does Presario 2700 support?

I guess I can solve the antana problem
But Im not sure which card should I use.

Thank you

Re: Presario 2700 problem

I have to assume at this point that your laptop is a US model...

Wireless cards are standard for laptops.

if in doubt, take your laptop to BestBuy, Fryes or other local computer store. I have seen cards as low as $10...

Oh yes one more thing. Do NOT even bother with a 802.11B card... the range is too limited. Always opt for the G card. Better range and better features.

Re: Presario 2700 problem

Hmm.. the answer was out of my question
I was asking what kind model that I can use for my Presario 2700US which made for mini PCI(there is one slot for Modem)
Some of wifi mini pci card does not support by bios.
I can just put PCMICA wifi card but I dont want to.
I want to install mini PCI wifi card so I can use PCMICA slot for other card.

Re: Presario 2700 problem

The links I sent you WILL work in your laptop. You can purchase one from HP or one from a store like Fryes.

Which do you want? They will both work.
