hey guys, my friend needs a little help. he needs some help because i'm not that great with networking stuff.
his computer will not connect to the internet at all. he has an HP Pavilion a1203w.
this is what i have done and failed at each attempt for it to connect.
i reinstalled the drivers for ethernet, directly connected the ethernet cable from the computer to the jack,(excluding the router showing that the router wasn't the problem) and i witched the 2 ethernet cables around proving that both weren't bad.
now heres the weird thing. the router has another ethernet cable running into his sisters room and she is able to get online but he isn't. the computer reconizes that there is a connection trying to be made because an icon pops up saying that, there is "limited or no connectivity."
any ideas on what to do? thanks.
