    You may be having trouble because I cant find any mention of an EZ1606 on emachines website.
    there is a EZ1601, it has a support page here
    and the only drivers i see for it are windows XP.
    Which Vista? Theres like 5 different kinds...
    Either way, Vista probably doesnt like the XP driver, instead of looking at emachines website for driver go to the hardware manufacturers website to find a Vista driver. A quick GOOGLE for your network driver finds this http://www.chipdrivers.com/chipset/network-adapter/realtek/rtl8111dl/allos/
