It would help if you told us about your laptop (make and model). Might be that it has Wi-Fi already in it and you don't need the card.

I can't find that model on lenovo india website anymore. The nearest is G410. But, the site does state that all G Series are equipped with Wireless solutions. View this page: *www-604.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/stores/...1686018425096210&seriesid=4611686018425154304 and scroll down to the G Series features section.

Consult the user manual about wireless and how to switch it on. Most probably, there is some push button on the laptop something like this: *i34.tinypic.com/2wqa58k.jpg to switch on wireless.

Data cards use the CDMA network for all data uploads/downloads.
Data card maybe of three types;
1. USB Plug-in : Goes into the USB port.
2. PCMCIA Card : Goes into the PCMCIA Slot on your Lappy. View the manual to know if you have one and where it is located.
3. Expresscard type : Like PCMCIA card but different slot.

The easiest and most versatile will be USB one, as you can use it in any laptop, desktop, as all have USB in them.

What you are talking about is Wireless LAN, The poster mentions about Data cards and wireless Internet. Lan and Internet are actually very different things. :)
