  • Normally this is a "plug and play" operation: your desktop will complain that it can't connect to the network, and then will stop complaining when the adapter comes back. Be sure you shut the PC down before you remove the adapter, and before you plug it back in. While things normally go smoothly, there's no reason to call the Devil a hothead to his face :)
  • There's no reconfiguring. As far as the pc is concerned you may have just removed it for second. Anyway, the real answer is that all the settings are stored on the computers so they don't care. The pc has no idea the card was in a laptop, vice versa, and neither one gives a hoot as long as the card is installed/configured correctly on each machine.
