a question about laptops

Hi bunnybon7, You can remove the battery, no problem at all - just make sure to plug it into a power source - such as using the provided wire to the power socket. Either will provide power to run the battery - you need it to even switch on the laptop, internet access or otherwise. As for that box to receive connection, is it connection to your laptop or the modem? From what you are saying, it seems to be a router - meaning it should be connected to the modem and not your laptop. In that case, it has nothing to do with you. If it is connected to your laptop, strange... then it is not a router. Usually laptop uses wireless access adapters to access wireless internet connections and these adapters are usually in a "card" form or it might possibly look no different from one of those thumbdrive. You might have one that comes in the form of a little gadget with 2 antenna thingies - which might be your box - but we normally use that for a desktop - but it does work the same for a laptop except that it is not as convenient to carry around.

hello bunnybon i as well have a laptop and have grown fond of it as well. i can type faster on the laptop computer than i can on a regular sized keyboard. and i know what you mean about the battery near the back of the laptop like that getting feeling hot when it has been on for awhile, my laptop computer does the same thing. i can be logged onto the internet for several hours and the bottom part of the laptop towards the back of it will always feel warm to the touch. i have no idea how long that a person should stay logged onto their laptop at one time. and i guess that that is how that i get my signal for my laptop as well is through the router that we have on the other computer. but i also have a linksys adaptor that i have on the side of my laptop. i went to K-Mart several months ago, and i purchased a small mouse for the laptop. it is much easier to use than the touchpad on the laptop. and i also purchased some earphones for the laptop at Radio Shack. take care and have a beautiful evening.

You need a plug to plug into your router, the battery always stays put. If you have a wireless router then you need a wireless card which sits in your laptop. The battery and other workings underneath do get hot but not enough to burn anything. I worried about that too when I first got mine but my technician assured me it was normal.

Hi bunnybon7 - Don't take my word for it because I use our desktop computer the majority of the time. My husband has a laptop so I'd have to double check with him when he gets home, but I think you'll still be able to pick up your wireless connection if you unplug it from the wall. I think that is what you are asking. Is it? As long as you have the battery in it should be just fine. My husband unplugs his from the wall occasionally and just uses it that way, as long as his battery is charged. But, as I said, please do not take my word for it. I'm sure there are many others here that could answer your question better than I. I hope you are having a nice day! Jill

it is normal for laptops to heat up as the fans only come on when they are needed. A dekstop they run all the time. There are things you can buy to sit the laptop on that act as cooler but it should not be needed. Not sure I understand all that barrety / router / wireless but for the over heating it has no bearing. If it really alamrs you the bios of the machnie should tell you temperture. you could when you fell it hot reboot to bios and see how hot it is. Then check that temp against the normal. But is should not be a worry

sometimes, when you disconnect the laptop from ac, it will disable your wirelss card. Go to your power scheme and keep your card on at all times. If it's a dell inspiron, hopefully you have quickset, just edit your power scheme from the software. :) good luck, the card uses more of your batterie's juice, that's why it disconnects your wireless card.

Wireless means just that... No wire. Even when your laptop is plug in... it does not use any wire to go on the internet. So it does not make any difference whether you plug it in or not. As for the laptop getting hot. All computers get warm while in use... and rather hot in summer. Normal computers have a ventilation system to cool things down. But I don't know about the laptop.

Oh bunny, that's sad! Why not get a technician to look at it? I don't know much about such things. But I have a laptop too, and if anything happens to it, I am in no position to buy a new one. I hope things get fine for your laptop soon. I, for one, would go nuts if anything happened to my laptop. Cheers and happy Mylotting

I really don't understand what's wrong though. Why not let the experts check out your laptop.

hello,i think we should take the right attitude of it,the compuer is a kind of equipment ,of course will produce the large heat at the time,so do not worry about it ,but if the haet reffers to mcuh,then u should check it whether belongs to the right contains
