I have a HP340LX and would like to use it for the internet using my existing wireless broadband router, can anybody suggest what I need to get me up and running and how is it done? I have a Novatech close by to me so would probably go there to pick up anything that I need. Thanks

CardBus = no http://www.hpcfactor.com/support/cesd/h/0037.asp

If it is in the HCL support, fine, else you can forget it. There are so few cards for 2.00.
