Default network drive not accessible with wireless usb card but is with LA


I can access the network drive "G" (via VPN) using DSL connection but when I
attempt to access using Verizon's USB wireless card (via VPN), the network
drive is not found.

So, I've contacted Verizon - tried everything they had to suggest. My
company's IT has nothing to suggest. My gut feeling tells me that my
computer thinks the USB wireless card is occupying the "G" drive. I have
read many posts but have not found a post that addresses my problem.

I would appreciate any suggestion or advice.

When you "can access the network drive "G" (via VPN) using DSL connection", how
do you connect to the DSL? Similarly, when you "attempt to access using
Verizon's USB wireless card (via VPN)", what service is the VPN running thru?

See if you can describe complete details of the connections, when you can
connect to drive "G", and when you can't. Remember we aren't there looking over
your shoulder.

The Verizon USB is probably a Wireless Internet card and not a regular
802.11g WIFI.
In other words it is probably incompatible with your Network.
