You home setup is probably wireless to a router and then hard-wired to an ISP from there (cable or dsl). So, if that is true, when you leave the house, you are too far away from the router to get a wireless signal on your laptop. Now, if you are supposed to be 100% wireless from your laptop to the internet (works somewhat like a cell phone does), then you would be able to leave the house and still connect to the internet.

There are generally two methods. 1) through the cellphone's USB connection or the use of 2) an Aircard.

With USB, you can talk on the phone at the same time. I believe that you can also use Bluetooth to connect to the laptop. I use the USB method and/or a Bluetooth headset. The advantage of USB is that it will charge the Laptop.

I also believe it's possible with the Aircard with a headset. The Aircard is tied to the provider, much like the cell phone is unless unlocked.
