The card (Tenda W311P) is not supported I will have to install its own driver. However, I did try to plug in a USB wi-fi 'card' that works right off the bat BUT, it fails to connect Whereas other machines using the same thing connect without any problem... I have tried conecting right off the install CD with the USB wi-fi and the same thing happens, it tries to connect but fails after a few minutes. It SHOULD connect but doesn't. Is it me forgetting something?
