Which died--the computer port or my wireless card???

Guess I'll find out when I haul my laptop and card to the Sprint store. Saturday everything worked fine. Connected to the Internet with no problem. Sunday I power up, put the card in, and nothing. No lights flashing on the card, no connection. I called Sprint's customer service and the guy did whattever he could do and then said "you need to take it to the Sprint store and have them try a different card in to see if it's the card or the port."

So if it is the port, is it worth having it replaced, or should I just get a new computer? I got my current laptop for free from someone at work. I trust them--her husband gets a new one every year or so I got last year's model.

And what is the differnce between a notebook and a laptop? I don't haul mine around, just from the floor to the dining room table...

If there is not a light flashing on the card, chances are it is your card and not your laptop. Since I work for Sprint :oops: and we have a service center here, that has been what we usually find. I cannot promise, but that would be my best guestimate. :lol: Make sure you find a store with a SErvice Center, if not, you will just have to haul it somewhere else.
Is still uses a card? How old is it?
They make the standard and express slot cards now. Not real sure which one she has, but it could be a relatively new computer with the express card slot.
The computer died. I bought a new laptop Tuesday night and will pick it up tonight. I confess I bought it at Best Buy and the Geek Squad is doing something to it. The former laptop was a year or so old and I got the card in October so it was hardly antiquated.
