There is normally no NIC in these systems. Just a modem and a proprietary interface card that allows me to communicate with the equipment out on the plant floor. If I want to access the company network I remove the modem and insert a 3Com NIC that I carry with me. Not many people in my group even have network logins. The others are maintenance personal that use these laptops for troubleshooting.
