4ISA USB + Wi-Fi card
An ISA wireless network card can be built using a small OpenWRT router module attached to a typical ISA ethernet card.
I used a generic NE2000 compatible ISA card and small A5V11 router module, which can be flashed with OpenWRT (https://openwrt.org/toh/unbranded/a5-v11).
The connection between ISA card and wireless module can be simply made with a short and flexible RJ45 cable. The original bracket needs to be replaced with a 3D printed one, which can hold the router module and expose its USB port. 3D-printable files are attached in "Files" section (isa_wifi_mholder1.stl, isa_wifi_3dbracket1.stl).
Power needs to be connected with a 500mA polyfuse and a angled micro-USB connector. +5V and GND pads on the network card can be used.
I published OpenWRT and MS-DOS network configuration details in the external repository: https://github.com/adbrt/dos-wifi-solutions/

5USB-C power connector
To run the computer off USB-C, a small module called "USB-C PD trigger" is needed. They are easily obtainable in various places. One with 15V or 20V pre-set voltage is needed (this laptop accepts wide input voltage range). It might be necessary to also solder a small low-ESR capacitor between the output terminals, because otherwise the initial inrush current may cause the powerbank to shut down. I added a 25V, 330uF Panasonic FR capacitor.
