most wifi routers can send out older signaling standards like 802.11b. have a look at your router's manual, as you didn't really state what model you use, only your isp.

I think the cards for those aren't made any more and are very expensive used. So you may be better off with the usb dongle, even though the speeds on that will be slow (USB 1.1)

They (the AirPort cards) cost around 80$.
