Windows 7: the "local area connection" adapter is not working properly

Although my computer modem and internet was working all fine, after I boot it up again with fresh windows 7 ultimate, while creating new network connection, it shows whether modem is connected and is power on? where the problem might be.. help appreciated.

quick help and reply hoped...

try to unplug and plug the cable back into your computer.

disable then enable it again--Restart

I tried disabling and enabling back, also restarted the computer many times, but still while creating new dailup network connection, it says is the modem connected or is it on? I am worried. Also tried puggin out/in the plug of network to the computer and phone too... but it doesnot work...

Are you on Dial-up, dsl, or cable internet, if other please specify.

Hi! I am trying to create a Dailup Network Connection.
Also, as I am using win 7 ultimate on my assembled pc, do I need to install any modem drivers for it??

yeah definitely, you have install drivers for your modem. what is your modem ?

I am not sure about the modem, I think installing iwndows 7 doesnot needs drivers, right? Anyway, in the adapter settings, I see it is writter, Atheros L2 Modem uplugged. I tried installing driver, but the case is same and it still says modem is not connected or power off. Still facing the problem.

Does the model have a reset??
