You need to provide us with a little more information.


Explain your setup...

Is your modem correctly connected? Are you using a router or are you going from your modem directly to your ethernet card?

Make sure your hardware is correctly set up.


Is your ethernet card working correctly?

Maybe check your...

Check your internet settings. Maybe your ISP has provided you with specific settings that you have not implemented. Yeah and a bit more info would help us help you .

did you just get it installed? or did you change something?

when we moved, we needed the guy from the cable company come buy, activate everything at the poll and stuff, the guy left and told us we need to call to have them activate the cable internet service, i spent about 2 weeks and 16 hours on the phone (literally) because they kept asking me if my cable modem was plugged in, and they weren't listening to me. so finally i got some guy who could bearly speak english. but at least he listened to me and was able to activate my connection remotely.

erghhh. bad memories.
