Default Updating CPU on Compaq Armada E500

Hi, I've got an Armada e500 I'd like to update as a gift.

Updating the RAM is obvious, but I'm running XP at a max clock speed
of .7 Ghz. Can this be updated for a reasonable price?

I've also got a Cisco Aironet 350 wireless LAN card, but it's running
at only 11 Mps rather than, say, a newer Dell, which is at 54. Is the
CPU affecting this, or is it the card?

Thanks as always

Yours are hardware questions, best posed in a hardware newsgroup, not one
that deals with XP OS issues.

Not a Windows issue. Check with your local computer shop.

Nope.

Either the WLAN card, wrong WLAN driver settings or caused by the
communication with another device having IEEE-802.11b standard only.
