you didn't tell anything about an error message. why are you assuming
it's the cable/card that's broken ?
just a thought : do you have an ftp server running an inetd configured
to allow the connection from your laptop ?
anyway, I would recommend using rsync top back up your laptop.
contact me if you need the script (will be soon on my homepage).
