Many Universities (bars and cafés too) have WiFi access points which can be of great value to degree students on the move! Most laptops now have wireless functionality built into them, but if yours does not then you would be well advised to have a look at the Dabs value card produced by Edimax, which:

  • Is a very cheap (less than £15 inc. delivery)
  • Reliable (mine is fault free after almost 2 years)
  • Linux compatible (picked up by Ubuntu, no driver installation reqired, easier than configuration in Windows!)

It is a standard 54g card running at 54mbps, but should be more than adequate for 99% of degree students requirements.

If you are sharing broadband in your house and want to network your desktop, there is also a PCI version available:
