I downloaded windows8.1 now my internet only works wifi it does not pick the cable to my d-link dsl-2750u router so im trying to get it to work like before
Probably the existing network driver is not compatible with Windows 8 - looking in Device Manager will confirm this so have a look. If it shows error for the network driver, you need to update it to a Windows 8 compatible one. Your laptop manufacturer has all the drivers on it's website. Just hope they support Windows 8 on your model, you are supposed to check that before upgrading the OS
Were you using a Win 8 computer and updated it to Win 8.1? If so you shouldn't have had a driver issue. If you were going from an earlier operating system (such as Windows 7) to Win 8 then that is a different matter.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
