I ordered a dell inspiron 9100 laptop about a year ago and dummy me
didnt order it with wireless capabilities. I bought a wireless pcmcia
card but I want to free up that port. Is there any way to put a dell
wireless nic built in now, or is it too late?

Pull the cover off the Mini-PCI card slot and see if there are a
couple of unused antenna wires in there. If there are, you are
golden, if not forget it...

Why not call Dell Customer Services?
