Depends upon where you live. MY question is though, why are you not using the built in WIFI to connect to the Internet? It is there for the using. Unless there is something wrong with it, of course. Be advised, unless you have an Internet Account (via an ISP), or are near a free WIFI connections, just having an adapter won't get you connected to the Internet. It's not the same as putting up an antenna and receiving broadcast TV signals. Since we last talked, I looked into a Firewire network adapter. They don't seem to exist. The problem is that the 1394 standard never got up on its own two feet, as the USB 2.0/3.0 overwhelmed it. SO, if you are looking for an external WIFI adapter, you'll most likely need a USB dongle. Sites like Newegg.com and TigerDirect.com can assist you. You can even get wireless adapters at your local Walmart!

Ihave a dv6000 laptop and and it has a 1394 net adapter but i can't connect to internet what must i do to connect
The 1394 Net adapter that you see in the Device Manager is simply the Firewire Controller....similar to the USB controller. It is not the same as WIFI or have anything to do with Internet connections...UNLESS you obtain a Firewire network adapter dongle and install it. Then you can connect to the Internet in the same manner as WIFI. The dv6000 DOES have WIFI, as well as a 10.100 Fast Ethernet cable connection that can be used to connect to the Internet.

How do i connect my luxor tv to the internet wireless
As far as I know there is only one Luxor TV model that has Internet access (Smart TV) and it comes with a wireless adapter/dongle. Plug the dongle in the USB port of the TV set and follow the instructions in the user guide on how to set up a network connection. Usually, from your remote, go to Menu, Settings and then to Set Up Network Connection. Please be aware that you need to have a wireless modem/router for your home network in order to be able to connect your TV to the internet.

Hope this helps.

A couple of hundred feet away may be too far for a good signal receiption.
You can increase your signal with an aerial.
You may need to go into the cafe or park yourself nexr door to the cafe.
Use Google to see what is available on the Internet.

Will the xbox 360 wireless network adapter work with a dongle internet network.
it would not work as the console is designed to work with a special type of adapter that detects wireless network. besides most dongle internet network require you to install some sort of dial-up program on your system to connect before it can be linked up with the internet and this is not possible on the xbox 360.
you can purchase any of the compatible adapters from ebay.com or from the website if you prefer.
hope this helped you? please comment if you need more info.

Wireless internet
The 3G mobile internet adapter is a small dongle that you need to plug into a computer.
The software setup is often automatic, and software will be installed by the dongle itself.

After installing you will need to pay for internet traffic, either with a contract and monthly fee, or with a pay as you go contract.

Fees vary depending on your country and on companies.

Here is an example of 3g adapter for UK MOBILE BROADBAND MODEM HUAWEI DONGLE 3G USB MODEM.

Better to buy adapter, sim card, and eventually cotract all from same company at a shop.

Aspire
To connect to a basic wireless network (WAN) you need to have a 802.11g (or n) network adapter, I would assume that this is located inside the laptop already (99% of new laptops come with a wireless adapter installed). You should not need a dongle.
