Try plugging the 3G dongle to a different USB port, and perform again full installation. Dongles usually do not need disk, as they have installer files stored on internal memory. If it does require disk, use disk or download. If you have a PCMCIA data card, uninstall from installed device and install again using the disk. Throughout this whole process keep the firewall Off.

If that does not help, then test the vodafone 3g adapter on a different computer, if it is still losing connection, then the adapter is defective.
Also ensure you have credit on your SIM card. If there is not enough credit, Vodafone will keep logging you off until the account is charged.

You can use the above links to Download and Install the Driver for LAN and WLAN.

If in case the Driver is not getting installed, please use the Universal Extractor to Extract the Driver And Install. I suggest you to install the Driver after Disabling all the Firewalls and Anti Virus application.

Need drivers for laptop mainly network drivers

Moost of the drivers for an acer can be found at www.acerpanam.com

On the lefthand side, select drivers and downloads
Then it will ask you to select your computer type, for this unit select notebook
Then it will ask for a product line, select aspire
Then select the model number 3680 is about 1/4 of the way down.
Drivers will then appear in a list below.

Now in order to use them you will want to download them to a flash drive and put them on the correct computer.
The LAN driver is easy, but this model series had several wireless cards in it and so you may want to use some sort of analysis tool such as driverpro for that, or you could try each one in turn.

Problem on startup with laptop combining internal ethernet and WLAN as if there is only one network connection I am trying to fix my mother's Acer Aspire 3680. It has 1GB of RAM, running XP Home SP3. It...

Sounds like the problem may be related to the power management of the internal ethernet card.

You need to check these settings in the Acer ePower Management software (usually installed with the laptop).
E.g. If you the laptop is not charging then you will not be able to see or change any settings on the internal ethernet card.

If you do not have the Acer ePower Manager installed then you can download it here;
