Wireless Cards For Laptops
Hey does anyone know if there is a better long distance wirless card that can be put in a laptop (Dell) My boy is at UW Madison and has a wireless card (dw1490 minicard Broadcom) in his but says he has a hard time in one class (that he absolutely hates anyways) picking up wireless connection. Just was curious if anyone knows more about wireless than I do.Which won't take a heck of a lot:argh: I tried calling Dell but can't seem to get a English speaking support helper. Wow that just irritates the hell out of me:argh::argh::argh: Thanks for any help at all guy's and gals:c:

Most likely its not a problem with his card. He's just in a class that isnt close to a router.
|
Thats what I had said too but, he said other kids are picking up on it. I don't know much about this wireless stuff.

Have him run his system cleaners and then check windows update for a better driver. BTW- those external cards never work as good as a built in internal.

Jazz, you might have to talk to Dell on this one - they have a lot of propietary hardware. |
The wireless card he has now is internal but he was telling me there is a long range one he thought that you could plug in. I will try Dell again and also have in do the system clean and look for a updated driver. thanks guys
