| 358130 | 2005-05-30 03:46:00 | Its this bloody lappy ..It's probably offended by being referred to as a "lappy" all the time - "laptop" is only one more character... :rolleyes: | Tony (4941) | ||
| 358131 | 2005-05-30 06:04:00 | Just re-capping here: Network settings look fine, so: You've changed the cable? You've updated the drivers? |

| 358132 | 2005-05-30 06:12:00 | from everything i've read here, it seems as if your "lappy"'s network card is bung, and i dont think you can replace a laptop network card easily yourself. you might wanna get that checked out. | supersaiyanplough (8098) | ||
| 358133 | 2005-05-30 06:25:00 | That is what I am thinking as well. The port hasn't got dust or bits in it, has it? Lovelee, have a look through the links on this page (www.google.com) and see if any are of any use. |

| 358135 | 2005-05-30 11:38:00 | ha Foxy .. Ive looked at most of them .. thanks .. Ive been looking all day hehehe None seem to have an answer .. and oddly enough I have found that this seems to be a common problem but not one person has an answer. Now something that we have discovered is that when I wiggle the cord I can get the connection to happen .. for a moment only!! This makes us suspicious that there is something wrong where it plugs in .. BUT !!! when I did that speed link thing u suggested yesterday it did connect for a moment also .. and I wasnt wiggling cords. Thinking of going via the usb now .. can the guest comp access the net using usb ? |

| 358136 | 2005-05-30 12:56:00 | Depends on the USB Cable/connection type.... You can purchase a USB -> LAN Adapter for approx $55 from Qmb (I got mine for that price a year back). Chill. |

| 358137 | 2005-05-31 04:36:00 | That does look as if the socket is a bit flalkey. Try cutting a piece of paper the right size to fit on the back of the plug (under the latch). That might give a better contact. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 358138 | 2005-05-31 05:15:00 | Have you tried swapping the cable end-for-end? If the same socket shows as unplugged you can suspect the socket, otherwise if the other PC shows as unplugged you have a dodgy cable. Fairly obvious I guess, but you never know... | Tony (4941) | ||
