    Ethernet cable connected but no evidence of........


    The computer that I use is connected to the internet via wireless and Ethernet.. It has lost the Ethernet connection. How do I get it back? Ethernet cable is connected to the computer as well as the router. Step by step please as I know only a little about networks.

    Hi blockie,

    Have you tried moving the ethernet cable to a different port in your router? How about replacing the ethernet cable?

    If you've done the above and still didn't work, please provide an an ipconfig /all output for us to review. Here's How.
