Hi,

 

Based on the following link, it has, but not ready therefore you have to buy a PCI wireless card or a USB wireless card/dongle for it:

 

  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00768103&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3245028

 

It has:

  

PCIThree (Two available)
PCI Express x16One (One available)

 

PCI wireless card is similar to these:

USB wireless card/dongle is similar with these:

 

   https://www.google.com.au/search?q=usb+wireless+adapter&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENAU282&prmd=imvnsr&source...

 

Driver should come with the box.

 

Regards.

Thanks for a quick reply and for providing the needed information.  I'm about to put this old computer in the shop for a needed clean up and I'll get the shop to price in a wifi card.  Thanks again!
