Hi,
i am quite new to computers. The internet in my home constantly disconnects, and the owner refuses to change it because its really cheap (talk talk). I want to get a network card which uses a different ISP altogether.. for my laptop. my laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1501 with Wifi. But im not sure about any of the specifications. http://www.dell.com/content/products...=19&l=en&s=dhs This website will be of use, if you understand the whole hardware software specifications business :P Does anybody know of anywhere where i can purchase a network card to suit my laptop, please. Also, im a student, quite... limited with my money, but i can scrounge some for a one-off, so any places who sell them cheaply? Please reply if you have any information. Thankyou in advance -krishijanu |

What Internet Service Provider are you going with? So, your saying your going to get your own internet? If so, you would need a wireless router and a Wireless are for you laptop (if it doesnt have one built in) and a wireless card for your desktop as well. what country do you live in? (so i can look for a good card for a good price for you) do you plan to be doing some internet gaming? if you are it will cost a wee bit more.

Well basically, you cant get an adapter which uses a different ISP. You would have to buy a package straight frm the ISP and replace the TalkTalk one. SO it wouldn't be a one-off fee you're paying, but a monthly one.
