Pat,
For the time being just hook your computer to your router using a CAT5 (ethernet) cable as Devi has already suggested.  That way you can get on the Internet.  It is faster going that route anyway.  I believe that I have some WiFi dongles one of which may work with your system.

Do you know of any where a Linux Dongle can be purchased locally?
Thanks
