As I did mention, people have managed to get some to work. You can search this forum and see what information you can find. But are you saying you have no empty slot that you could put an ethernet card in? PCI ethernet cards can be had for as little as $5 or less if you shop around a little. I personally would never run a high speed connection without the protection a router provides (vitally important with Windows but growing in importance with Linux). There are many other benefits too.
