Your wireless is not working on your laptop any way to connect with secondary card?

Yes you can. And it depends what you mean a secondary card. But before you have to find out why your wireless does not work. If might happen that you have wrong settings for it or you have turned it off accidentally (some laptops have a switcher for wireless). If you are sure that the wireless adapter was broken you can purchase an usb wireless adapter (secondary card) which might cost you about $20-50 and more (depending on brand and performance). If you mean a secondary card a lan port then you need a lan cable and non-occupied lan port in your wireless router.

Why wont your 802.11g LAN work with a secured wireless network?

What do you mean working with each other? 802.11g is the wireless protocol, which you can secure with WAP or WEP encryption and it would be called a secured wireless network. Also, it would be called a WLAN for wireless local area network. They're the same thing.


Do WLAN and Wi-FI mean the same thing?

Yes, they are different although most people regard them as being one and the same. They are not. WLAN is an acronym for Wireless Local Area Network while Wi-Fi is described by the Wi-Fi Alliance as being any WLAN that is based upon IEEE 802.11 standards. To be Wi-Fi certified, the WLAN must successfully complete Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification testing. So, while any LAN that is Wi-Fi certified is regarded as a WLAN, not all WLAN are Wi-Fi certified.


If you left laptop plugged into the main all the time would it affect the battery in any way?

i think you mean that let the laptop work with laptop adapter and the battery. well, i suggest that you should work with the laptop adapter for the most time, cause when the laptop battery is full charged, the adapter won't stop it's wrok and keep charging the battery, that means the battery has to discharge(supply the power) and be charged at the same time. unfortunately, this condition may decrease the life of most lithium basic batteries. so, keep the laptop working with the adapter for the most long time.


How do you connect a wireless router if you have no CD drive?

Routers do not need any CD in order to connect to it. If you mean that you do not have a driver for the wireless adapter you get it from the manufacture website (Netgear, Linksys and so on).
