  3. My Local Area Connection is not working, and it says on my laptop that I am connected to the internet but when I click on the browser the only thing that comes up is ''Internet Explorer Cannot Display the Webpage'' I was informed by people that I should get a Network Adapter Card, and on certain settings I checked on my laptop it says I need to install and enable a network adapter card. could anyone inform me whether this could help solve my connection problem, as I have tried everything else. Also help point me into the right direction of where I can buy them. Many Thanks.
