WTB: Wireless LAN Module Like Shuttle PN18 or Low Profile 802.11b or g

[SteveJ34]

Being commissioned to do the portable jukebox has rekindled my media center PC project.

I have a setup for this that I started from in a nice slim case but would be nice to add wireless to this setup. Its a low profile case and I don't find low profile cards that will fit.

Some saw low profile but the back plate looks like it will need to be modified as while the card will fit the back plate looks to be "standard height".

I also thought about tapping off USB which I have done in the past one someones system using an external linksys product.

I'd like something akin to Shuttle's PN18 which I have placed in most every shuttle I have been asked to build for family and friends  but not sure if there are similar items at a price less than the $70 + shipping for this setup.

I assume a PN18 would work in any system so long as you can tap the USB connection.

Is there a low profile PCI or USB LAN module like Shuttle's PN18 provided by other manufacturers??? I've searched but I'm not hitting any homeruns in my quest.

I could switch to a different case but I like the one I have so would prefer to find something as described above at a reasonable cost....


Any suggestions?
