You can download the drivers from Dell WEB site, the support download page. Make sure you select your model laptop, better still, type in the Service Tag number, it is printed on the label on the bottom of the laptop. This will open the page where the specific drivers for your model laptop are located. Also make sure you select the Windows Vista version of the drivers for your Windows operating system.

if the laptop is wifi enabled there is no need o connect it through the Ethernet cable it will just pick up the signal and you will have to put in the pass code. Even if you want to connect by Ethernet cable you should be able to just plug it in and get on the internet. if the problem is you don't know the pass code it should be on the original modem manual.
