Wireless LAN & Activation



Before I shoot myself in the foot, I figure I'd better ask.

Running XP Pro fresh setup, about three months old. I want to add a wireless
card, will XP try to reactivate? (Using onboard LAN card now. LAN card being
one of the components watched for activation.)

Normally not a problem, with a simple phone call, the problem is solved, I
know. But my computer is in an office in which I do not have access to a
phone. (Hard to believe, but true. - Long story short, I work at a school in
Japan and do not have access to an outside line to call the international
Activation line, and the Japanese Activation line is for the Japanese
version.)

I need the computer for class, and if activation cripples the machine and I
have to reactivate, I have to lug the computer home...

Any idea?
