I have 3 computers, 2 work with my verizon wireless card. My Dell suddenly stopped recognizing the wireless card... I thought it was the card slot on my dell but when I tested my friends AT&T wireless card it was recognized immediately! Through lots of trials etc. I have figured out that it is simply something to do with the Dell and the Verizon Wireless card (I have even tried 3 other Verizon cards, one of which is a USB type, the other 2 are PC cards, none work!) I've spend hours on the phone with Verizon downloading updated drivers etc. and they can't even figure it out! Any thoughts? The problem started in December, previously it worked perfectly!

Some of the latest Verizon phones require a microSIM whereas the Droid Bionic requires a miniSIM. Please go to a Verizon corporate store where they can get you the appropriate size. It shouldn't cost you anything. Don't leave until they have it working.
There are some wireless card which doesn't support verizon fios.Check out if your Card is supported or not.if not supported ask their Customer service for a USB wireless Card Brand and its specification which with work fine with verizon fios.
Yes you can. Make sure that you disable DHCP in the lan settings section in the router. Use the computer without wireless card as the server, the router will be install in this computer. i have an air card with Sprint and I'm using Encore router and my Wii, and 3 more computer can connect without any problem.
since you have verizon modem wireles router.. i have the same issue with the same model...I call verizon and tell the issue...verizon accepted that modem router have problem in wireless...i know that all my computers have no issues because i maintain and built those computer by me..
then Verizon send a new and different modem router...this time it works fine...since i received it last week. call Verizon regarding the wireless issues ..tell them too that you have some dead spot on your wireless..like if you move away more than 15 feet..your wireless connection get lost..
the UM150 wireless card goes into the computer.
however, the DSL need to be wired to your computer for initial configuration.
if you just hook up the DSL as verizon say, then you will have a open wireless network, anybody can get access to your network.
reset the network settings both on the computer and your router and start again. go to the website for your router and enter the ip or mac address for your wirless card and enable it on your network. to get your computer to recognise the network, turn off wireless, plug it in the local area connection first then for a few minnutes then enable the wireless and unplug the wire and it should recognise.
this works on it's own. like it is needed to connect to verizon wireless internet. your internal on the other hand is designed to work with a home networking equipment such a wireless router (one that is connected to the internet via DSL / Fiber / Cable / etc).
Make sure you are using the latest driver and software for the card. If you haven't already done so, I would also suggest trying the card in another computer, and a known good card in your D600, to see if the problem stays with your computer or follows the card.
If it follows the card to another computer then it is most likely a problem with the card itself. If other known good cards also fail in your D600 it might be something with the D600 card slot. If the slot is the problem then I would recommend contacting Dell tech support.
