which operating do you have? which did you have?

Is 1394 the name of your home network?
Do you know if the drivers are installed for your wireless card?

do you have a LAN and a wifi card in there? sounds like you either don't, or the drivers aren't installed

1394 is the firewire port. 1394 is the controlling chipset for it.

What you probably need to do is look up the make and model of your laptop and download and install all the drivers for it.
