Check the path of the cables. The cables must go through a cable modem for the connection to work. If you moved the computer but not the cable modem, the signal won't work properly, and may be what's giving you the signal.
Also, make sure that you plugged the internet connection cord into the same location in the computer rear. I have a DFI Lanparty board and it has 2 Lan connectors in the rear. If you plugged it into one, then used the other after moving it, but the second doesn't have drivers installed, it won't function.

If you hard resetted your modem, durr, you might need to call your ISP.

I am using a dell 4700. It only has one connection. I'm pretty sure the cables are right but I will mess around with it a bit.


I think it has to do with something about the actual windows connection and IE. Although it willnot work for anything. As you can see it works for this computer.

If you lost your internet connection, how are you checking this forum? Make sure your pluged into the router properly... if your connection coming in is say in an uplink port, it may not work... try moving the ethernet cables to different ports on your router.
