Hey all - having a rather frustrating experience with my computer.

I'm on Vista x64 with an ASUS P5N-SLI mobo and a Realtek RTL8139/810
NIC.

The onboard ethernet stopped working on my mobo, so I bought a chea
OEM NIC and installed it earlier today. The modem is reading it fine
the PC link light is illuminated - but Vista seems to think that there'
nothing plugged into it.

In accordance with other people having this issue, I went into my BIO
and disabled everything I could - namely the 1394 onboard firewire - bu
nothing has worked. When I disabled the Nvidia LAN controller in th
BIOS, the computer was able to communicate with the network sort of
but for whatever reason, was still unable to connect fully or to th
internet. It was giving me errors about assigning the IP, resetting th
router, etc.

Any ideas

I am in need of a netsh script that will disable the "Local Area Connection" interface then re-enable that same interface. Spin Windows Server 3 11-03-2005 12:58 AM
