Hello
I need some help because I've just bought a VGC-V3M and I want to set up a wireless card (internet network)
Can I use the PC CARD SLOT?
and what is the card can I use?

many thanks for your help

You will need to use a vacant PCI slot with a suitable Wireless PCI card.

I don’t believe that this model has vacant PCI slots….In which case you could use something like this in the PC Card slot.

This assumes that you already have a wireless network to connect to of course.

Sorry, you are right the V3 is not a typical desktop!

Rich is correct it's not a typical desktop.
I had an argument with John Lewis when I bought a Wirreless bundle for a V2. Couple of staff said it's an desktop and I had to buy PCI Card. Only one staff was at my side. This desktop is like a laptop.
