I have a old HP laptop which dosen't have built in Wi-fi. But i have access to a wireless network in my sweet little accommodation.

Does any one have a solution that i can fix a external device so that i can hook up to the net.

You can by a USB or PCMCIA wireless adaptor that you simply plug into your laptop. You can find these in the usual places, including Carrefour and Virgin.

does not have a built-in wireless then you have to change the whole motherboard which means technically changing your laptop to have something like that.

You can buy the Linksys wireless NIC which comes as a USB to be attached to your laptop, or go with the Wireless card that you will insert into your laptop and that is a D-Link but check first if you have that PCMCIA port there ...

Good Luck ...
