The motherboard is a relatively recent Gigabyte board, but with no
integrated network, so far as I can discern. My network adaptors un
cp/system/hardware/devices are PPoEWin Miniport which is the broadband
software and my Speedtouch USB modem.
Under newworks and connections I have a LAN set up but that is the ADSL
USB modem again. And no, there is nothing that looks like a phone jack
but slightly larger, or if there is I've never noticed.
