hi everyone,

I'm totally clueless with networking and new to DSL, so bare with me here.

I got dsl going on a toshiba 430cdt laptop. I just recently aquired a xircom pcmcia 16bit card and am not sure what to do next. I ran the netconfig and the card seems to be detected. What should I do next?

thanks in advance.

We need more information before we can give you any meaningful help. Obviously you have to plug an ethernet cable into the xircom card and plug the other end into a network hub, switch or dsl modem which are in turn are connected to a network or the internet.
