What's your operating system? if it's xp and above (or win2000 if it's still existing lol) just use a wusb54gc v1 adapter or you can install a wmp54gs adapter (it's linksys - it work best for me).

Match the network card speed with the most bandwidth your router is designed to deliver. An example would be 100 megabytes a second. Wireless "G" routers typically deliver this....Wireless "N" routers can deliver up to 1000 Megabytes a second or also know as a Gigabyte card.

An Ethernet adapter card that has a capability of a transfer rate, of up to 1000 Mega Bits per Second.

Just about all of them nowdays.

Older versions were 10/100, but now for the specifications it will state 10/100/1000 for a decent network adapter card.

Here is an example of one,

Not an advertisement for website, nor manufacturer of network adapter card.

As for naming a manufacturer that makes the best one's? Doesn't really matter.

What is the video card slot type

From the information available on the Dell website I would say you could fit any PCI-E you can afford. The thing to consider is the power output of the power supply, which isn't great and it is not easy to upgrade on dell machines. So I would suggest you spend no more than about 75 (GBP)

That motherboard does have 2 standard PCI slots, also a PCI express slot (the small slot). If these slots are already being used you can buy adapters which will convert a USB slot into a network connection.

Time warndr says slow connection caused by faulty network card. OEM card part of motherboard. What do I need to buy?

3ee04e0.jpg
Your motherboard in this PC has two PCI cards, and one PCI express card. You may have one of these free to install an Ethernet card. If the PCI express slot is open, it is your first choice. The ethernet cards are labeled PCIe. There are many brands to choose from. Your system is using an Intel based LAN card.
Tiger Direct sells a PCIe Ethernet card for $49 made by DLink and a Trendnet PCI card for as little as 7.99. I have used both brands and they work well. The PCIe is faster.

My network card got damaged during a storm. Dell desktop 4600c

If you don't want to wait until Dell send you back one, just go to Best Buy or any other computer store and buy a small-factor PCI network card, I assume you have an free PCI slot available, if you have a wireless router then it maybe be easy to get an external USB-based wireless network card.
