Wireless Pc Card Knowledge Base
How do I properly set up a wireless pc card to run on my regular at-home computer? I currently have a wireless pc card through Verizon Wireless that I was at one point using on my laptop. My laptop has since died and I recently bought a PCI to PCMIA cardbus adapter so that I could use the wireless pc card with my regular at-home computer. Do I need to install the Verizon Wireless software in order for the pc card to work or do I need to set it up some other way? The computer recognizes that there is a Curitel PC Card installed but the Verizon Wireless software does not. I am unable to get an internet connection of any sort.
What are the options for buying a wireless pc card for my laptop? I would like to be able to connect online anytime I want from anywhere I am. In most places a connection is available but soemtimes there is no wireless network in the area. I know I can purchase a wireless card for my laptop that will connect with a mobile phone provider to gain internet access. My main question is does anyone offer a prepaid wireless card or a pay as you go for a reasonable price? I wouldnt use it unless I had to so I dont see buying one with a monthly subscription etc. Or are there any alternatives to get online at all times besides this wireless card. Thank you.

How can I convert my Verizon Wireless broadband PC Card into a wireless router? I have a PC card for my laptop that gives me wireless internet over Verizon's BroadbandAccess network.

My Sierra Wireless PC Card keeps disconnecting....why? Please help: I have comcast high speed internet and a wireless card (Sierra 881). I have issues with my wireless PC card disconnecting on me. I mainly use the PC card when I'm traveling, but when at home I'll use Comcast. My problem is that when I'm at home and I try to use my card, it will disconnect on me after about 20 minutes. What is the problem? Is this due to me using a wireless network through comcast and then a wireless network through AT&T? Should I change me network settings? Is there a discrepancy there? I love my comcast internet but this pc card is giving me hell. lol..any suggestions?

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!
