Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, i googled - there's a tiny antenna on the back of the card (already attached) - when the card is put in the antenna is outside the computer.
Here's an example: [link]

A super-efficient insulating material has a conductivity of 5 mW/mK.
Does anyone know how to translate that into R value per inch?

le nub, if you were anywhere near downtown LA, I'd happily come over and install it for you for free.

Sean, you kick ass. Unfortunately, I'm in the Eastern timezone - probably for the next 2 years at least. I need the card installation before then! :-)

There are small computer fix-it shops around here (Boston) who probably install wireless cards for people all the time and for a very reasonable price, I'm sure!
Might there be such a thing as a wireless "pod" that attaches to a desktop computer via USB or suchlike?

LeNube - If you took apart your TiVo, installing a wireless card in a computer will probably be less tricky.

Absolutely. I picked up one of these [link] cheap at Best Buy over a year ago. I could only afford the one, and I wanted something that I could swap between my desktop (W98) and my laptop (WinMe) when necessary. It's worked out pretty well.
