1. In terms of software, a port is a communications endpoint in a computer's host operating system. There are a lot of ports designated to communicate a computer with other computer and networks. For instance:
- Ports 20 and 21: FTP communication
- Port 22: Secure Shell (SSH)
- Port 80: Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) used by WWW
- Port 443: HTTP Secure (HTTPS) used by secure SSL web connections
2. In terms of hardware, a port is a specialized outlet on a piece of equipment to which a plug or cable connects. Most common communication port is an Ethernet port, which is used by almost all network equipment. Other ports which can be used to coomunicate with computers and networks are USB port (while using special converters), IEEE 1394 (FireWire), Serial (RS232) or Parallel (LPT). Both Serial and Parallel are obsolete now.

What improvements can you expect from using a LAN card on a computer that already has on-board LAN?
The short answer is that there will be negligible difference between an network interface card and an onboard network interface. Conventional wisdom is to use the one onboard if the motherboard is newer than the card. I think it is sound advice. The more complicated and long answer is that "it depends". But this answer probably isn't relevant unless you are setting up a server or maybe you are a gamer with the ultimate rig who wants to squeeze a few extra frames out of their favourite first person shooter. I don't think anyone can give you an exact answer without knowing the specific details of your onboard and card network interfaces.
