I got home from work tonight to see that my computer had no internet connection. I tried the repair options in Windows, reset the modem/router, rebooted the computer, but I could not get an IP address.
When I plugged the cable into the onboard NIC, voila! it woiks!
I was afraid something was wrong when I tried uploading a video to YouTube and it took 5 hours..... it was only 3.5GB and my upoload connection pushes 25Mb.
As far as I can tell, and from my professional experience, the card is no longer in service.
What would anybody suggest?
