This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.

Topic: Verizon Access Card with a USB / PCI wireless adapter...?

Subject:Verizon Access Card with a USB / PCI wireless adapter...?
I have thought about this recently since I am giving my brother a desktop and he uses the Verizon Wireless Access card ( no other access where he lives ). Would the adapters work with that signal? I know laptops do and I figure the adapters should but I have never tried them.
It should work right?
Edit: Just noticed this was in the Console board.. I had both pages up at the same time. Could a mod move this to the PC board please. Thanks.

I'm not really sure what you're talking about.
Is it one of the old PCMCIA type of cards for a laptop? All the ones I know about now are USB/have a USB plugin cable and they won't need an adapter. You just plug them into the desktop and they'll work just like they do on a laptop.
If it's the PCMCIA type I'd highly suggest he upgrade to one of the newer ones. He'll get a better signal as well as updated tech.
If for some reason he doesn't want to upgrade then I'd suggest one of these:
