Got an ethernet cable sent this morning from virgin media saying i should swap from usb as i would benefit faster speeds etc etc, it sent instructions on what to do which were pretty straight forward, switch off at maines, connect ethernet cable, switch back on wait for one min and boot up :thumbsup: only problem is i cant connect to the net (so ive swapped back to my usb) ive updated my drivers and tried again but still no internet connection usuon the ethernet cable?

Anyone any ideas???

Cheers :thumbsup:

Do you have your LAN drivers installed from your motherboard CD?

Also try this:

Right click on My Computer

Go to Properties

Go to Hardware

Go to Device Manager

Go to Network Adapters {click the +}

Right click on Realtek Ethernet

Trying clicking on enable if it is there! or click on update driver & follow what it says!
