We need model number of the laptop please mdw 500s i cannot find listed. If its the same as the nx 500s then ddr 333 is required (200 pin sodimm modules)
for wireless they installed
Intel® PRO/Wireless IEEE 802.11b/g network card, Mini-PCI Pentium® M models only)
-OR-
Broadcom IEEE 802.11b/g network card, Mini-PCI (Celeron™ M models only)

FN+F2 keyboard combination toggles wireless networking
Antenna: Uses factory-installed internal antenna assembly
Operating channels: 11 selectable channels
Security: 128 and 64 bit WEP encryption
Operating Frequency: 2.4 GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
Maximum Data Rate:
54 Mbps (IEEE802.11g)
11 Mbps (IEEE802.11b)

I am not sure where you will find a mini PCi card to suit i would just use a slot in pcmcia card or usb adaptor

Your PC support up to 4 gig of memory in 4 slots.
DDR 333/400 ram memory of 1 gig each.
So you need to know how much memory your system had.
Probably 2 gig.So the more memory the better will be the speed for run apps in your system.

Upgrading acer laptop RAM

Hi,
You Can Actually Upgrade This To 2 Gig Memory.
Each Slot Will Take 1 A Gig Strip.
I,d suggest Buying another 256 mb Strip, To Put Into Slot 2.
Or Buy a 512mb ( Half Gig ) Which Will Give you 750mb With your Existing Strip Already In There. ** Recommend 1 Gigabyte Max** 2 gig of Ram in This Baby Would Probably Start Glowing.
You Can Buy DDR/266/333 In 256/512/1 Gig Strips. These Are Commonly Known As SD-RAM-Modules.
