How to Install a Linksys Wireless Card Without a CD
After installing wireless card hardware in your computer tower, you will have to complete the process by installing the software that goes along with the wireless card. If you have purchased a Lynksys wireless card, it should have come bundled with a special CD with all of the appropriate software you'd need to install for your computer to work with the new card. But if for some reason you have misplaced your CD or it has been damaged, you can still install the software for your Linksys wireless card.

Identify the make and model of your wireless card. If you have already installed the card, your view of the numbers may be obstructed, so check the packaging. If you have lost the packaging, then you may have to remove it from the tower to find the make and model number and then re-install it.
