Gateway Solo 2500 Problems
Hello, I just bought a Gateway Solo 2500 from a friend for 45 bucks. Its running XP and works great with wireless. But there seems to be no openings for a Ethernet/Dial-up connection
! There are modem card slots on the side, and usb hubs (which I use for wireless connections) but no sign of a slot for Ethernets! Im so confused!!!!!!!! This computer was made sometime ago in the late 90s so I am suprised to see that there are no ports! If anyone knows how I could install one on here, I would be much obliged! Thanks!

Welcome to TSF! According to this document:
http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/...shtml#P25_1569 The system doesn't have a modem or ethernet jack/support. You'll need to utilize a PC card for any of those functions. I suggest getting a Xircom, since they're all in one...

There's one! These are probably the coolest PC cards out (IMHO)...
