the first thing to try (its easy and works 50%) is always
start run winipcfg scroll down the drop down list of adapters till you find your network interface card (nic) if there isnt the nic shown you have to reinstall the drivers for it, the cable modem is directly connected to your nic, if the nic was added after purchase, to install cable internet, then the drivers for the NIC are probably not on the recovery cd, and need to be reinstalled, look for a cd or floppy the drivers are small. if the nic is shown try 'release all' 'renew all' to regain your ip address if the configuration is too different the cable provider is best first port of call, when you add a different nic they have to reconfigure their end to recognise it, different MAC numbers -- Adaware http://www.lavasoft.de spybot http://security.kolla.de AVG free antivirus http://www.grisoft.com Etrust/vet/CA 12 Month free trial (till Feb 2005) http://www.my-etrust.com/microsoft/ Etrust/Vet/CA.online Antivirus scan http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx Panda online AntiVirus scan http://www.pandasoftware.com/ActiveScan/ Catalog of removal tools (1) http://www.pandasoftware.com/download/utilities/ Catalog of removal tools (2) http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/n...aspx?CID=40387 Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts file http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm links provided as a courtesy, read all instructions on the pages before use Grateful thanks to the authors/webmasters _ "loridoug" wrote in message ...

Hello Loridoug,
Have you tried reinstalling the dr_ivers for your modem that would have come with installation CD for the cable modem? Hope that helps. -----Original M_essag_e----- I use an HP 8670 Pavillion.
