Re: Cant connect to Internet either wireless or plugged into router, PLZ HELP!
Hi
There is No point to jump from one topology to the other.
If other computers works well with the Router there is No point playing with
the Router and the modem (or deal with Comcast)..
Better to start with wire cause there is less variables to deal with.
Only when its works well with wired connection start dealing with Wireless.
Try to reformat the hard drive and reinstall Windows.
