That is to use a USB to Ethernet LAN adaptor. I had the problem of a 5-year old laptop running MK 10, which would not cope with a cardbus(32-bit) PMCIA Ethernet card after my old 16-bit card failed. It has one USB port which now carries the USB to Ethernet LAN adaptor. This picked up the settings I had tried for the Cardbus card, and is talking happily to my ADSL router/modem and my desktop machine. In OZ, the USB card is about twice the price of a PCI Ethernet card, but will of course just plug into a USB port.
