Puddy Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I switched my router a couple of weeks ago. Every time I would open IE is get an error message about connectivity issue. I'd run the quick "diagnose this problem" and it would fix the issue. Pain in the ass but I lives with it. Now I'm getting "Ethernet cable isn't plugged in". Diagnosing it doesn't fix the issue and I can't connect. Not sure why this happened or how to fix it. It happens on all the computers do it sounds like a connection issue at the router, from the modem maybe? Any ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 No clue on my own so I did a quick search and got these 2 answers try updating ur network card drivers, if that doesn't work it might either be ur network card (u can buy a new one cheap) or your registery might be effed up :P (if u hd kill it then install OS on it again then it should kill it ) also theres programs that something can fix ur registery but i dont use any so i can give u any advice on what :P Answerer 2 Unplug the power cord from the pc tower for 10 minutes. un plug the power cords from the router and modem for a few minutes so they can reset and recognize your pc.

Puddy Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 While Whomp wasn't my guess for the advice I appreciate it. I'll give the second one a try first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
