I have a wireless network in my home. I understand the unit does not come wireless capable - but does it hava available slots where a wireless card can be installed?

You just need a wifi USB dongle...the computer has plenty of USB ports, and the dongles are super tiny. No need to install any kind of card. I'd recommend a new mouse too, the one that comes with it is kinda cheap feeling.

Can the unit work as a wireless transceiver for a laptop without a wifi transceiver? I mean, I have a laptop whose wireless radio stopped working; could I plug this thing in to its ethernet jack to get it to act like a wifi card?

It doesn't come with wifi capability out of the box - you will probably need a USB WIFI dongle or a PCI wifi card (there is at least 1 free slot).

As far as I know it doesn't not ship with the capability. Expansion wise this computer is limited thus a USB wireless option may have to be utilised.

Yes, there is an Ethernet connection. There was not a card for wireless connection with a router.CordiallyJohn

It has LAN connectivity built in, but no wireless network card. We have WiFi at home, so I put the WiFi card from the computer I was replacing into it. Really good computer for the price - WiFi cards are cheap, I wouldn't let that stop you from getting it :)

You need to have an available wireless network. Sure. You use an item like this with machines that don't have wifi cards built in. But this particular item is junk and I suggest you buy one that has a better user rating.

Out of the box it has a wired LAN port. However, it does not have any wireless capability. That can easily be overcome with a very inexpensive wireless PCI card or USB adapter - most of which are essentially plug and play now for easy setup and use.

It comes with a wireless card inside. It is a good stable computer, but it is not the fastest. Good for the price.

No, it does not come with wireless capability. I think it cost me $50.00. I bought it and it was very fast set-up. It is worth it.

Sorry for the late reply. To answer your question, I'm not sure. But I have no issues with the wireless card so far.

What do I need to set up the Verizon wireless home phone is there a card to buy to run this

Yes. It has built in wireless so you don't have to worry about adding wireless capabilities yourself. I am very happy with it.

Yes, you can, but you have to get an optional wireless card and they are $100. My suggestion is to get a wireless HP 300 or 475 products----they are easier to set up. I had to hire a professional to set this up wirelessly at my home.

Hi I could not find anything on your PC as far as what open ports are available to add cards use this site to compare what you have available and match it with the wireless card http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/PC/slottypes.php. It may be a PCI-e 16 or a pci-e 1

No, this is a wired network interface card. For a wireless network card, search for "pcie 802.11n" in the search line.
