I recently purchased a used wireless modem/router, SMC 8013WG. When it arrived I noticed there was no wireless network card installed, so this would currently only work as a wired modem/router. My question is, if I plug a wireless network card into the slot in the back, will this simply do the trick? I've been searching online, and all I see are wireless network cards for laptops and desktop computers. Would these work if I plug this in? Or is there something else I would need to get? Thanks.
