    Thinki broked the internet

    Well my internet connection seems to of broken, i have it connected via Ethernet port of my o2 home router.

    cant even access the router home page, although under network connections it says its connected and under ipconfig in cmd then i have a default gateway showing and the like.

    What could be stopping me getting the internet through the Ethernet cable even tough the wireless works.

    Line is fine, no hisses no crackles or strange noises

    Pulling my hair out here!

    You can connect on wifi but get no internet access? But through ethernet the net works?

    have you tried rebooting the router? I assume if you can't access the setup page it might have locked up. The bog standard routers aren't known for their stability.

    maybe a busted router. give o2 an email about it or phone them up I suppose. Or post this problem on their forum or unofficial beforum so that the more experienced people can suggest what to do.

    Don't suppose you've set a static ip address on your ethernet connection have you? If so try resetting it to DHCP and see how you get on.

    go to the command prompt (run it as administrator in Vista) and type these commands line by line

    netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" dhcp
    ipconfig /flushdns
    ipconfig /release
    ipconfig /renew
