PCMCIA Network Card for laptop. Which one?
Discussion
Got a oldish laptop with no network port. Running XP, and want to connect it to my broadband connection.
Setup:
Phone socket > Broadband Router > Firebrick Firewall and 4 port hub > PC
As there are 4 ports, I thought I'd connect up this old laptop, therefore I need a network card to go into the PCMCIA slot. Right? (imagine I'm a thicko when it comes to this.
Question if I'm right so far...which is the cheapest card to do the job, where from, and how much?

(will be asking later how to configure the firewall (Firebrick) )
