What System Requirements do I have to have for my Tablet PC to have wireless internet/networking access?

Answer 1

If you are talking WiFi -- most tablets come equipped with this internally (just check the specs on the machine). If you want wireless Internet when you are not in WiFi range... consider an aircard (basically a cell phone internet connection).

I use one with my Motion 1600 PC and I really like it. Now, it's not nearly as fast as broadband, so if you are spoiled by DSL like I am, it may frustrate you a bit. It's still alot faster than dial-up and slow broadband formats (if you are in a 3G area and have a 3G enabled aircard-- or Edge/GPRS). Speeds run 850-2100 MHz, on average.

Most of these cellular cards require a PC card Type 2 slot (32 bit card bus form factor)

The one I'm using (a Option GT Max) is nice because the antennae doesn't "stick out" when it's not in use, the "butterfly" style will tuck away where it's safe when you don't need it -- and out of your way. I used the external antennae style with my Tablet PC and it made me nuts (it was a Sierra Card) because no matter how I held my Tablet, it seemed to always be in my way.

Hope this helps!

A on the spot community can proportion an internet connection and/or a community. while you're utilising a on the spot router (with out installation a house community), you're in basic terms sharing the internet connection & not the workstation that is on. in case you place up a house community then you definately are sharing the two..... The artwork arounds are to apply like a 124 bit encryption (you're able to try this with the applying that got here with the on the spot router) & in basic terms provide your acquaintances the main code or to in basic terms proportion the internet connection & make it so which you're able to puzzling cord (use the lan) to get entry to the workstation.
