Thanks everyone ... yes tried the new cable in another laptop. Doesn't work.
Tried the old cable in the work laptop - works. So I think the pins at both ends are ok.
Going to take out both cables later and look at the ends ... wondering if the new cable has been incorrectly wired ... crossover maybe ?? Can't figure out why it would give me the correct IP address from the router, but not communicate. (incidentally, the same IP address as the old cable is now using).
