Hi all i have an external linksys adsl modem wich can be connected to my computer by either usb or ethernet. up until now i have been using the usb connection but would like to change to ethernet, as i have heard this is faster. so i unpluged the usb cable plugged in my ethernet cable, turned on my pc and nothing happened did not show the connection :mad: Sorry if this is a silly question but i dont do networking, any help would realy be appriciated. if its any help my spec is in my sig.
 
Thanks for trying to help Muzzler. But i now think the problem is with my on board marvell yukon gigabit lan adapter, it does not show up in my network connections. been trying to install new drivers but it does no good. have looked in device manager and for some reason it has a microsoft driver but it wont let me unistall it just says failed this device may be needed for the computer to boot(or somthing along those lines). Thought it might help to disable it in the bios first but there is no mention of lan adapters in the bios?? Is there any way i can force windows to uninstall the device??? or is it just borked. Sorry to be a pain :( but i am getting realy annoyed :mad: SILLY MOTHER BOARD.

Has anyone else with a ds4 had the same problem???????
