Sony Vaio Network Connection Question

#1 (**permalink**) 12-03-2006, 06:27 PM

Hi All
My Sony Vaio has a 'LAN Express IEEE 802.11g miniPCI adapter' - can this
work well with say, Netgear's ADSL wireless router or do I need alternative
wireless receiver/connection?
Cheers

This should work just fine, assuming your ADSL wireless router is 802.11g

Sorry hit submit a little too fast. It will work even if your router isn't
802.11g. At 802.11g you will merely get the improved connection rate. If
it is 802.11b it will connect, but at only 11Mb
