Forums > Help! > My PC won't connect to router

Hi everyone

OK I was recently trying to setup my home network and in the process of setting up my new network drive 1 of my PC's has now gone kaput and won't connect to the internet.
My old PC is fine,
New PC won't connect
Network drive won't connect



my new PC for a short while after setup picked up my old PC and network drive from the My computer section I think somehow my firewall is preventing PC and network drive from accessing the web. It's all wired so no wireless problems.

When I try to connect it keeps trying to connect via PPPoe WAN miniport all my internet options seem fine

any ideas gratefully received.

A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

thanks everyone I did the simple and did a system restore back a week and now it's ok. My network drive doesn't connect but that's another issue.

I read about pinging I'm a technotard

Unplug it and plug it in again

You can't just go unplugging things and plugging them in again, and expect it to work.

Find someone who knows what they're doing, and get them to unplug it and plug it in again

You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.

Green peppers, lime pickle and whole-grain mustard = best sandwich filling.

all that was done (IT crowd style) it WAS plugged in and I did try turning it off and on again. even old Mr Ucof couldn't help I hate computers

I'm going to take it back, the PC works fine after I restored my PC to before I installed the software but the FAQ and support say once installed everything will auto setup I think they meant auto F*** up
