Eppy Needs Help... - Eppy - 02-03-2008
As some of you may know, my machine has been repossessed 'For Exams' which quickly became 'Until we see you passed all your classes' which means 'If you didn't make honor roll we'll kill you'. So, my father is working late, and that means I have all day to play! If he hadn't hidden the power cable to the router. So, I've been trying to plug one of the cables directly from the modem into my machine (my stolen wireless is not stable enough to play on). Problem is, every time I try I get a "Limited or No Connectivity" message. Any idea how I can make this baby work?

You could find an Ethernet PCMCIA card to add an Ethernet connection to your laptop. Those are pretty inexpensive these days.

But I have to get to the store and buy it, which ain't happening. I just need to plug the thing into the modem and get internet. How hard can it be?

Bump. This is excruciating, ladies and gents, pleeeeease. I can only forumstalk for so long.

The reason it says "Limited or no connectivity" is simply that the PC can't see a router. (yes, it's that simple) It should still be able to connect to the internet. You may need to run the network config again to set it to "This computer connects directly to the internet'

You should be praying for your dad not to get registered on the forums here, for your own sake:)

If my father registers on the forums he will invariably join my faction, because he likes Italians and grey, pointy ships with unnecessary outriggers. Then he will be subject to my control. So it's actually a bit of a plus...:lol:
