You can purchase a PCMCIA ethernet card adapter which plugs into the laptop's PCMCIA slot.

Need a free dowload for a hispeed 2.0 usb port so my three huwai dongle works faster on thinkpad 600E

I tried to do a little research on this for you. I have an old 600E and a 600X. The 600E is from 1999, prior to the standardization of USB 2.0. I do not believe the hardware will support 2.0. My recommendation would be to get a serial to USB adapter or a PCMCIA to USB card. You should be able to get one or the other for well less then $30.

How to turn on wifi

hi

the T42 does not have WiFi, instead it facilitates internet connection via 16 BIT & 32 Bit PCMCIA slot to install a WiFi card , in order to go on the internet.

The ThinkPad uses the following adapters: v 360, 365X, 380, 600: 16-Bit PCMCIA v T20, T22, T23: 32-Bit CardBus and MiniPCI v T23: 32-Bit CardBus and MiniPCI Daughter Card v T30: 32-Bit CardBus and LAN on Planar Board (LOB) v T4x: 32-Bit CardBus and LAN on Planar Board (LOB). 16- and 32-Bit PC Card adapters are configured during ThinkPad initialization. Network Interface Controller data rates are: v For Token Ring: 4/16 MBps v For Ethernet: 10 Mbps...........16 bit PCMCIA 10/100 Mbps.......32 bit CardBus 10/100 Mbps.......MiniPCI and Daughter Card 10/100 Mbps.......T3x and T40 LOB 10/100/1000 Mbps..T42 LOB The MiniPCI Ethernet adapter is accessed behind a removable plate located on the bottom of the ThinkPad directly above the Model/Type S/N sticker. For T20 and T22, the MiniPCI adapter may be an Ethernet/Modem combination card. The Daughter Card (T23) is secured with two screws and is located next to the MiniPCI modem adapter.
please go to this link to read the manual -- it will explain the features for this ThinkPad of various series T42 model-type .

Install drivers for ethernet card or buy a usb to ethernet adapter. That will get you on the net so you can install your other drivers via thinkvantage installer. Or you can just cruise the net with the usb to ethernet adapter itself.

IBM Thinkpad 380ED

This is an old system, in order to get it internet ready you will need to purchase an ethernet bus card for connecting via ethernet cable, or a wireless bus card for connecting wirelessly. You can find these at Bestbuy or Walmart. As for the game manager, this system is going to be to old and doesn't have the hardware to support the program, basically, it won't work. Oh, the bus cards are also called PCMCIA slot adapters, just in case you run into some overly technical clerk when you're looking for them.

IBM ThinkPad 570E Internet Problem

This is going to be with the machine, yes, too old. These machines take a 16 bit wireless card which is almost impossible to find since they stopped making them 6 or 7 years ago, and 16 bit cards were never produced by cellular providers, so a cellular card is completely out of the equation. The cards on the market today are a 32 bit card. I know you're trying to go wireless, but if you want to connect to high speed, you can use a bus port ethernet card that will allow you to plug an ethernet cable into the machine.
