Ok so I've just thrown my new rig together (spec in sig) and done a fresh Windows 7 install but I can't get online. I've checked the cable & the router which both work fine when plugged into my laptop so they're not at fault. I'm not too familiar with the UEFI BIOS yet but both LAN options are enabled so I'm stumped, any ideas?
 
Firewalls, drivers?

When you click the ^ on the toolbar too does it say that its connected to the internet? or show the connection anywhere in internet connections?
 
I assume you can see the network adapter in your network connections folder lol, if so check the details and find out if your getting assigned an IP address from your router or not. If your not you should get an IP in the 16x. Range.
 
/facepalm.

When it was asking for drivers I was thinking for the router which I never had to do before but obviously it was after ones for the ethernet ports :o All sorted now!
