Since you are replacing your WiFi card with the video decoder card, you are removing built-in WiFi functionality. There is no second PCI-e slot. It has been suggested a USB wireless adapter could be used, but I have not heard of any success stories so far. Alternatively, you could connect a Wireless AP in Bridge mode to the Ethernet port.

I think this would be the best solution, honestly.
