If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software. \nDetailed instructions at http://tinyurl.com/yk5zpr

Make sure to check the router option to connect automatically.\n\nIt is the first element in the WAN setup options screen.\n\nIf that doesn't solve it, make sure both the router and modem are connected to a good regulating power bar.  \n\nThis said, don't expect industrial quality for 50$.

Do the simple things first.  Shutdown the computer. Un-seat and re-seat the card.  Go the router ( I am assuming)  and unplug it.  Wait for a few seconds and then plug it in.  (These things are embedded computers and sometimes hang) Then restart the machine.  See if it works.  If not, you are going to need some hardware to figure out which piece broke.  Have someone bring thier laptop over and attempt to connect.  Borrow a card from someone and try it.

check you ethernet cable.  It is like a large phone line running to the back of your computer.  Make sure it is plugged in on both ends.  Also try unplugging and replugging your cable/dsl modem or router

make sure it does not have other firewalls installed left from the company such as Black Ice, Zone Alarm or the XP firewall enabled. Also check for port blocking. Ping certain ports.

Reload and reinstall USB drivers.  If that doesn't work check settings in bios for USB.  It may be disabled.  Check in device manager for USB root hub.  If same problem most likely hardware problem.  Depending on comput is not worth it.  If this is like a throw away store bought PC.  Just pitch it.

first try and connect the PC directly to the cable/dsl modem and reboot the pc and modem.  If you get on the internet, then somethign is up with the router.\n\nFirst try and hit the reset button on the router, you'll need a paper clip or a pencil point to do that.  Give that a try and see.  If you still cant get on, then the router is probably dead.

try checking your connection preferences, you might have set it to no network detection, if you have then put it to no proxy, if you still cant connect then put it to firewall with no proxies

Sounds like you have a bad NIC in your PC.  If the modem works with other computers, its probably OK.  Sounds like you tested cables well.  \nDo you have more than one device hooked up to the modem?  if so, certain models may require a router in between.  \nWe did even talk about your networking settings at all.  Enable DHCP in your modem.   Set PC to Dynamic IP.\nIf all doesnt work, purchase a new ethernet card for your PC, install it, and if it still doesnt work, take the ethernet card back to best buy for a refund.  Its all good baby.

you may need to install the driver for the Ethernet port on your computer to work. is your Ethernet connector onboard with your motherboard? if so, contact your manufacturer of your motherboard  to get a driver, or ask them who makes the chipset on the board (mostly nvidia or ATI) \n\nif your Ethernet connector is separate or in a computer port (towards the bottom of the computer box) then the default Microsoft driver may work. \n\nOpen the control panel, then go to add new hardware. Have the computer search for recently installed hardware (trust me). It should pick up the device and ask you to install the driver that Windows has for it.\n\nor if you have a disc for that part, better yet..insert the disc and run the setup. It should then install the proper drives for you.\n\nThis Nvidia link may be of help:

Ok, first check your cabling(are the cables plugged into place? Are the connector ok?).Next check your computer's IP settings in order to make sure that youre computers are in the same network class, but each one has a different IP address. After that try to ping the other computers (Start-\n>run->cmd and the command is ping ip_address  - eg.: ping 192.168.8.10). If all works well make sure your computers ar in the same workgroup

if you're using XP, try resetting the tcp/ip. if it still does not work, you might have to do a regedit. call your ISP or pc manufacturer technical support,they can help you with that.
