First I want to tell you that I am new to networking. We just got a verizon evdo internet card and we have one desktop and one laptop. both are running vista. We have a sierra AC595U Evdo card that plugs into a usb port. I also have a Netgear WGR614 router. I have read some of the other posts on this subject but nothing seems to make sense to me or everyone is runnin xp. I would like to know how to set up this network.

Thanks

This is close. It will let me set up a network using a standard dsl modem and a router, but I have a EVDO card that hooks up into a usb port. Also I am having trouble getting the right IP adresses.

the EVDO is not designed to be networked!

Put it in the bag and use it when you leave home as it is designed to do. Perhaps if you give mre details about how you want to set up your network and all the equipment someone may be able to help you.

Why do you want to do this anyway, what speed is your landline?

Instead of a network, I found out that I want to use Internet Conection Sharing, to allow me to acess the internet with more than one computer. I have also seen alot of people that have done this but I can not seem to get the right IP adresses

do you intend to get rid of your land line service, what speed do you get from your landline?
