My laptop is currently connected to the internet through my modem (via usb cable). My home phone is connected to an analog telephone adapter; the internet cable is connected to my modem and the ethernet cable is usually connected to my laptop until recently when the ethernet port on my laptop fried during a thunderstorm. My home phone has no dial since. I went out and bought a PC card with an ethernet port. I installed it, but it doesn't seem to pick up a connection. I called the manufacturer and I was told that I don't need a PC card, he said I need a router. I don't think this solves my problem since I need an ethernet port to connect my home phone. I am planning on going to the store where I purchased the PC card, but what can I do to connect my PC card to the internet? If you know of any video tutorials, it would be great if you would let me know. Thankyou.
