midol66 Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 I just finished building my first computer and its running great...with one exeption. I CANT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET! I looked on the forums here and i tried both marvell and Nv lan ports, neither work. I installed both drivers, and nvidia firewall is not installed. It recognizes that the wire is in and connected to the modem, yet it wont connect to the internet no matter what i do. I got the modem software installed through the USB port, but that didnt solve my problem. Im at my wits end here, i just cant figure out what could possibly be wrong. HELP? EDIT: I did try the MAC thing in the bios...no such luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 I had the same problem, and I never got either of them working. I bought a $4 PCI Lan card, and I've had no issues since. Maybe when I get my other machine fixed, I'll play with it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rigwald Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 Buying a lan card when you have two options aready paid for doesn't seem like a solution to the problem of the onboard not working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Posted August 20, 2005 Posted August 20, 2005 It isn't. But, without a working solution, it's tough to play online when you cannot get there. This may be my last DFI board just because of issues like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
superflyguy Posted August 20, 2005 Posted August 20, 2005 Have you tried getting into your router/modem's page? Type it's page (usually 192.168.1.1) into the URL address box. If you can you should be able to then put your PC's details in to allow the PC to connect to the router. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
