Thanks for the suggestion but the cases you have mentioned is not my problem. I was not provided with WLAN PCMCIA Adapter of Huawei MT841. So as an alternative i tried with NETGEAR WG511v2 PCMCIA Adapter. This is my problem now. When i insert the WLAN Card and Turn the modem ON, I do not find any signal in WLAN Indicator. So help me out... Thanks again..
