Ethernet not working, same with Passworded Networks
Okay. I am new to computers, I just hated vista with such wrath that I printed out everything ever to computers and updated to windows 7.
I had vista 32 bits, and all my drivers were working correctly when I upgraded to windows 7 32 bits. But I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 64x because I found out my computer has additional RAM that wasn't being used by the 32x OS.
When I did this, I had to install some new drivers, which I figured out by putting in my ASUS driver cd and then from device manager I would search the ASUS driver cd for correct drives.
(The ASUS Driver CD wouldn't work, it would tell me my operating system (obviously) wasn't vista, so I had to use the driver folder in it manually)
So, I can connect to password-less wireless perfectly, like my neighbors, but my work's pass-worded network it says connected but I can't actually go use the internet. Same with when I plug in Ethernet, it will tell me I'm connected but no internet.
I read around the internet and it said it has something to do with drivers. I tried downloading 64x versions of my drivers but I had difficulty using and installing them,
Here are my Network cards:
Atheros AR928X Wireless Network Adapter
Bluetooth Device (Personal Area Network)
Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol TDI) (Pretty sure bluetooth doesnt relate to my internet but whatever)
Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20)
PS. If you respond with drivers downloads, make sure they are just an install file not a folder full of weird extension files please, lol.
Thank you in advance!
PS I LOVE WINDOWS SEVEN!!!
PS I don't know how much background to include, damn didn't mean to write a lifestory.
EDIT: Also, I reinstalled/ installed a lot of drivers from the Asus site, all of which didn't work. Ethernet I was able to locate my ethernet card but I can't test that, my wifi card however wasn't even displayed on the site. I was confused. There was no Atheros downloads at all I think
