bill1960 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Can anyone confirm if the Asus Eee PC has the appropriate connections/hardware to access Internet in Thailand via a GPRS phone or Aircard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 You won't be able to use an aircard since there is no PCMCIAA port! USB gprs modems (both regular gprs and Edge are available) will work.... Same for a mobile phone, USB cable or Bluetooth (through a usb bluetooth dongle) will work. All this might be daunting if running the Linux OS (drivers!), but when running XP it'll be a breeze to get going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
