I am having connection problems with my laptop, It is a Dell Inspiron 8100 running xp home, and I have a Toshiba pcx1100u cable modem. It connected fine when I got it, then quit seeing the net. It is not the modem or cable because my other cpu sees the net fine also using xp home. I reinstalled xp and it saw the net again and worked fine. Next morning it would not see the net again. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Hi,

I have the same problem with my Dell laptop. I cann't get connection anymore.

My friend had this problems with two computers, not Dell laptops. He switched the network adaptors of the computers, then the computers are ok now.

My adaptor is on board, I can't change. Maybe same as yours. So I tried a USB network adaptor, then I can get connection.

The self test showed nothing wrong. I don't know what's wrong with the network adaptor. If you solved this, please let me know.
Thanks.
Leo
