I need help getting my Linksys wireless PC card to work properly.? Hi, I just purchased a Linksys Instant Wirless Network PC Card, model WPC11. It is one that I slide in to my Dell Latitude laptop C600 that is running XP. The device is working properly. BUT! In "Network Connections," the computer thinks that it is a LAN connection. I don't know how to tell it that it's a wireless connection. Therefore, I cannot select "View Available Wireless Connections" etc or anything like that. How do I fix this? Someone told me something about disabling the Wireless Zero service. Still doesn't work, so I re-enabled the service. Also, the wirless card is sort of old: the latest driver on the linksys website is from 2001. But it was a good price and I would like to work. Any advice or suggestions? I'm sure this problem has happened to someone before maybe. Thanks!!

Would using a Cingular GSM wireless PC card connection(ie. fairly slow) for Yahoo Voice calls be successful? I am an over-the-road truck driver who just got $350 in extra charges on my cell bill for business calls made in Canada. I am considering upgrading my DataConnect(already have unlimited for US) for the tune of extra $50/mo to get 100 mb of Canada roaming use per month to pair up with Yahoo Voice to try to beat the $.59-$.79/min rates in Canada on my cell to make calls. Sounds great in theory, but does anyone have any idea if it would work practically with the connection speeds these GSM wireless connections provide(if it helps, my wireless card is a Sierra 850)?? Just want an expert opinion or two before I spend major $$ on something that may just flop on me!!!

Specifics for wireless card for a desktop PC? I'm going to be moving one of my desktop PCs out of my office, so I won't be able to reach it with an Ethernet cable. I think my best option is going to be to put a wireless modem in it. As far as I know it doesn't have one already. Anyhow, I'm looking at my best option for this. I use a Linksys router and my laptop works really well. The router itself is an accelerated router, so I guess a faster one would work. Is it possible to get one that will just plug into the tower rather than having to install it. I know like on an old laptop you can just put it in the PC card slot, I didn't know if this was possible for a desktop as well. Thank you!
