I've got a HP dv8000 and I had the exact same problem. It ended up
being the Windows PC-Card driver that was at fault. I did a
roll-back to the driver that came with the stock-machine and
everything worked after that.

BTW, the Sprint Service is cool. I use it sometimes, but because
there are a lot of places that don't support it, there are a lot of
places I go to where I end up finding a KinkosFedEx and using a
T-Mobile HotSpot account.
