uninstall the device in device manager & restart windows so can find new hardware & load it's driver.
I have a problem. I have my pc connected via ethernet cable then when I hook up my laptop to this ethernet cable it wont bring up the internet any suggestions?
dcplayer8 you really need to start a new thread rather than post to one that has been dormant for 5 months. This will help everyone, including yourself and forum mod's. I would start by checking that you have the correct network settings on the laptop. If it is configured with different settings, i.e. IP address, subnet mask, DNS, DHCP etc then it will not work. You need to check these settings in your network connections page.
dcplayer8, read this from the forum rules. 8. Don't reply with an off-topic comment/question -- instead start a new thread. release your pc ip address before connecting to laptop. your manual from your isp will tell you how. or get a router so both can be on the net at same time.
