Connections at the
computer for wireless
networking connections
are simpler than wired
ones just because there
are no wires to connect.
Wireless connections are
most common in portable
computers. Increasingly,
notebook computers
come with built-in
wireless networking. For
notebook computers that
don't have built-in
networking, you can plug
a wireless networking
card into the computer's
PC card (PCMCIA) slot.
(Wireless networking is
based on radio
technology, and in many
add-on cards the antenna
protrudes slightly from
the PC card slot.)
Desktop PCs can have
wireless networking, too.
A typical arrangement is
for an adapter in a
desktop PC to contain a
PC card slot, into which
you plug the same kind of
wireless networking card
