You can get a USB ethernet adaptor, for that look on dabs.com or ebuyer.com or radio shack. The alternative is a PCI ethernet network card, cheap as chips and you can probaby pick one up from a skip.

You simply purchase a Network card (NIC) and plug it into one of your free PCI sockets on your motherboard. You may have to install drivers if Windows doesn't pick it up itself.

Get another NIC card.
$10 for a D-link

A USB interface would be $13, but it is not as fast.
