Hi,
If the NIC doesn't work in 2003, and the manufacturer's drivers don't say
they support 2003, you may be out of luck. Well, not completely. You can
always email Netgear and ask them for 2003 drivers, you never know, you may
get some test drivers.
Another option is one of those wireless-to-wired devices that get your
wireless signal and allow you to plug into the device using a standard NIC
and CAT5 cable.
Lastly, stringing wire isn't impossible without a contractor. Personal
experience proves otherwise :-). But I understand that you don't want to
poke holes in your home and that's fully understandable..Just saying it is
possible
