My Pci simple communication controller isn't working after i install xp pro (well i upgraded to pro). I erased all the data on my computer by using DBAN then when i tried to go to the internet and plug the cable (verizon fioz) it didn't work.

The PCI simple communication controller should be related to the dial-up modem which by itself has nothing to do with broadband access. If you cannot connect you need to be looking at something else especially your network or ethernet adapter.

Network Primary IP Address 127.0.0.1 Primary MAC Address 00-14-BF-72-61-7E Network Adapter Linksys Wireless-G PCI Network Adapter with SpeedBooster It seems you only have a WiFi Netwrok Adaptor from above, so where are you plugging in the Cable from the Verizon Fioz?, USB or Ethernet ?

ohh so the pci is for dial up.... well i didn't know that.:) And i do have the cable (Verizon Fioz) thats why i can go to the internet right now and the ethernet is on the back; however, i think the problem is i don't have a local area connection thing on my network connection. I only have that 1394 connection and the linksys showing up. Do you think this is the problem? If so how do i get the local connection (i believe they call it LAN)?
