Hi Guys,
One of my computers in my home network cannot get access the network. It was connected and working fine up until two weeks ago, but then the connection went dead. I have not made any settings changes to the computer, it is manually configured ip address, DNS and the like. The network card is working properly, both in the device maneger and the lights working behind the tower. The networking icon in the systemtray only shows one monitor screen come on, not the usual switching back and forth between screens. The port lights on the linksys router to which the computer is hooked up to is on, all of them. I seem to think that maybe the connector on the wire,Cat5, could be the culprit. These wires run through my walls, and all the computers are in different rooms and the router and modem are downstairs connected directly to the distribution panel (ADSL). Right now, I am stumped. Also tried resetting the computer, restarted it numerous times. There are no forwarded ports for this 'puter in the router and no software firewall. Thanks in advance........
