Hi there wonder if you can help.
I usually run my Motorola SB5100 Modem through a Network cable, everything was fine until today (i've currently had to switch to USB)
The only thing that I've done today, that might have changed things is a bios flash, but I'm surprised if this is the prob although it seems likely it is.
When connecting though my Network card (built into the DFI NF4 board I have) I can go into the properties and the connection is fine reads the correct speed of my Connection (4meg). Blueyonder tech can also see the modem and all seems ok from their end. We tried releasing and renewing through the dos prompt but that doesn't seem to have done much good.
I've also uninstalled Sygate Firewall, completed a registry clean and retried just using the Windows firewall, same result cannot connect to the web/email through the network cable.
Have also tried uninstalling the Mobo drivers and reinstalled them, which hasn't helped anything.
I've also completed a re install of Windows, the problem still remains
Can anyone offer any advice as to what a fix could be?
Whats the diff using USB over a netwrok connection? Should I be happy with a USB over the network connection? I always thought it better to use the LAN/ethernet connection over USB but i've never really been sure why? lol
All help appreciated
Cheers
