Conectting dsl to inspiron 1000
I just received the dsl modem from sprint and am trying to connect it.
I connected the ethernet cablet to the port, (well what I am assuming is the port) but the dsl light does not come on, on the dsl modem box sprint sent, the power, lan and sys does.
Am I equipped with what I need on the Inspirion 1000, or do i need a card or something?
And I thought installing myself would be a piece of cake:)

Thank you, I will try to contact them.- hawkes,did you connect the modem to the phone line at your house?just wanted to make sure, something so simple could be causing your many problems.when i was in 9th grade of high school i built my first computer and after about 30 minutes of trying to figure out why it wouldnt turn on i finally plugged the power cord in.-josh

The integrated NIC on the notebook is working fine - it's the DSL that needs attention.
