...from a cell phone provider? I have a pc card from verizon and a HP OfficeJet 6500 series printer. I have been unsuccessful trying to connect the two. First is this even possible and second, if it is how is it done. Thanks for the responses.
 
Well the wireless card from Verizon is a EV-DO 3G wireless card and only connects to the internet via Verizon cellular service. You need to do this through a wireless router. If you do't have one I would recommend it. With the wireless router you can connect as many computer as you want to one central computer in your house. You just have to make sure that you have all of the computers on the network.

If your computer doesn't have wifi you can buy a wifi USB receiver:about $10-$15. A wireless router would cost you about $40-$60. I would talk to a professional at Best Buy or Radio Shack before buying this stuff or setting up.
