hi, i dont know a thing about networking much so bare with me. thanks.
well, i got a d-link wireless router (DI-624), and a d-link wireless card for my dell laptop. My laptop can go online no problem.
Now my brother has a kinda old laptop comaq armada 7800, he just upgraded to XP on it and he now wants to go online (dont believe it went online before) on the side of his laptop is a slot for a cardbus and/or wireless card. WE bought another d-link wireless card just like on my dell and installed drivers and everything, but it dosnt go online, when we right click the icon to see any available networks it dosnt show anything. We even tried putting in that cardbus pc card and hardwired with a patchcord to the router but it still dosnt go online, im not sure if the slot is bad or is there something im missing? if you need more information let me know. Thanks for trying to help me!
