Re: D-Link Router Connection

Sorry Barb it didn't help.
No matter what, I keep getting "no cable in network adapter" and the port
light on the router is out. I'm going to hook up a Linksys router after I get
back from work tonight. I'll let you know if that solves anything. I was
using a D-Link DI-624 and it saw the Vista computer fine but I couldn't get
it to see Microsoft Live Gaming no matter what port I opened.
Thank you for all of your help.
