    Just now, my wireless internet stopped working. It turns out that when I sent in my system THREE TIMES to try and get the CPU Whine fixed, they decided to replace the Dell 1490 card that was in the system with a 3945abg. I originally had the identical problem with the original laptop, and after sending in the computer to the depot twice, I finally convinced them to send me a Dell 1490 card.

    Was there ever any solution to the infamous 3945abg problem? This is the worst time for it to happen since I need the computer for school on Monday. The laptop is out of warranty so I can't call Dell, but everything would've been fine if they had just left the Dell 1490 card in there. Is there any B&M store where I can buy a Dell 1490? I see them on eBay for $10, but I can't wait 2 weeks to get my wireless working again.

    I've never had so many problems with a computer before, and have never had to spend so much time with tech support before.
