Ok, a friend of mine told me he couldn't get online. He spent a long time on the phone with Verizon and they told him that it was something in the hardware of the computer. I took the computer to my house and hooked it up. The network connection says there is limited or no activity. I assumed the problem was in the network adapter, so we bought a network card and installed it. I'm getting the same error message with the new card. I know it's not the connection itself, because my computer is hooked back up (it's where I'm posting this from) and the internet is working just fine. Does anyone have any solutions or ideas on how to fix this?
This isn't really my field, but I had a similar problem. When you spoke with Verizon did they reset your connection from their server?
Try reinstalling the OS and see what happens. It should fix the problem, but I'm not sure if you'll want to go through the hassle of putting all your programs, pics, etc back on your PC. But if thats not a problem go for it. =]
