Hi All, I am a new member to this community. Few days back i bought a ZTE MC315 CDMA 1X Wireless Internet Card from Web World and i tried installing it on my laptop but i am facing some problems. I own a HP dv5200tx laptop with Centrino Duo processor and XP Home as OS. I have repeatedly installed the card in my PCMCIA slot(COM4 in my case) and i can make and receive calls with it but when i try to connect internet i get a message " The connection is closed". Despite my best efforts i am unable to solve this problem, i have shown the same to guys at Web world and they too were not able to solve this problem. I fear that my COM4 setting do not allow sufficent current(850mA required by the card) to the PCMCIA port. I have faced the same when i used 2.4GHz wireless USB audio transmitter( which required 140mA).The USB audio transmitter worked pretty well on Dell& Lenovo laptops but not on mine. Reliance guy showed that my card was working on Lenovo laptops but it was my laptop settings which is causing the problem. I would be thankful if any once can solve my problem.. Thanks in advance.

Hi sselvan, The reason for the crah could be conflict between the resources( port address, Interrupt request,..etc) of ur COM ports. I recommend that you remove the PCMCIA datacard and go to device manager. In the listing select goto Ports( LPT & COM)..select the COM port and check for the datarate, databits, parity and flow control( these have to be same as the settings of you CDMA 1X modem)...then check the resources for any conflict with theaddress., if so try changing it... Hope it works Manish Bhakuni
