Wifi on Satellite Pro CDX?
Posted: 04-Sep-2010 22:42

Hello,

Can anyone tell me if a Satellite Pro CDX machine can be made wifi capable?

There is one usb port and one PMCIA port on the machine.

If the machine can be made wifi capable then where can I find the PMCIA card or usb stick for the Pro CDX?

Thanks in advance,

Which Satellite Pro CDX? 440 or 460?

It must be very old notebook model and I think best solution for you is to use PCMCIA WLAN card.
Where to get it? I am 100% sure you can buy it in every PC store so contact your local dealer and I am sure you will find this card there.

Assex,

Oppps! the machine is a Toshiba Satellite Pro **460** CDX.

A friend was tossing it out. It's running with Windoze 98 and all functions seem to be ok, so, I thot I'd see if I could rescue it with a Puppy OS. All the manuals are included. It may not be worth the added expense of wifi card, memory and a optical mouse, but Puppy has revived many an old machine. Shame to see it go to waste.

Thanks for the quick response.

Seems you’ve got this notebook model:
SATELLITE PRO 460CDX/CDT Product Specifications

The specification data sheet says that the notebook support two stacked PC Card Slots.
Means these slots holds two - 5mm PC Cards Type II or one - 10.5mm PC Card Type III.

So check if you would get an PC Card WLan which can be used in such slots…
