Generation Gap!

I was adjusting the power setting of the wireless DSL modem at home in Chennai since once in a while I see the chord coming out loose. I use Fios modem and once in a while I need to reset at home in Dallas. So, I am used to this. My father came by and asked me as to what exactly I was trying to do. I explained. He pulled something from his pocket and gave me to use with my laptop. MTS data card!!!!
