New computer cant connect
 

Can you somebody please point out what im doing wrong.

Just purchased a new computer with a onboard Lan connection. My current computer is only 2 and half years old and when purchased and the lead connected to the lan card it worked straight away with no messing.

This new one doesnt want to know. Its a NTL 250 Modem but i keep getting an error when connecting. Do i need any settings set up in the network connections box. Any help will do

Thanks in advance

The main thing is to turn off the modem for a minute, then turn it back on.
If you haven't done this already, the modem may still think you have the old computer attached.

if your new pc has vista installed start internet explorer and if no web pages load up there should be a setting in one of the IE menus that will enable the connection. Had this happen on a mates pc http://cablehell.co.uk/forums/index....pic=104308&hl=
