Use USB wireless adapter, its the best.

 

Works better than PCI card or build on the mobo.

 


I have this one and its the best I ever had. Fastest connecting to the router and no dropped connections. Shows 35 connections in my area, my Linksys PCI card showed half!

Its better USB, but it could sit on the desk or the top of the PC, PCI type is weak, that's why it takes so much time to connect, with this its instant.

The smaller one can be plugged in the USB in the back and u don't have to see it.

Yes. U just plug it in the back and it stands right up or to any angle u adjust it.

U don't have to see it at all.
